First Graphene enters the US$2.6 billion urethane mining market with a new production order from Pacific Urethanes, deploying its PureGRAPH technology to enhance fire safety in industrial equipment.
First Graphene secured its first production order from Pacific Urethanes for PureGRAPH fire-retardant polyurethane in mining, a commercial milestone that expands its application and customer base.
First Graphene Ltd has landed its inaugural production order from Pacific Urethanes to supply PureGRAPH for fire-retardant mining applications. This milestone marks the commercial debut of the material in polyurethane systems, targeting a global market segment valued at US$2.6 billion. The partnership aims to improve safety in underground mining environments without compromising the durability of essential equipment.
It represents the first commercial production order for PureGRAPH in fire-retardant polyurethane, validating the technology's application in the mining sector and establishing a new revenue pathway.
Polyurethane is widely used for its durability in mining, but it has limitations regarding fire safety. PureGRAPH is added to enhance fire-retardant performance while maintaining the material's necessary mechanical and wear-resistant properties.
