First Graphene has announced a series of new UK trials of PureGRAPH®-enhanced cement produced by its commercial partner Breedon Group. Breedon will manufacture approximately 600t of cement incorporating around three tonnes of PureGRAPH CEM at its Hope Cement Works in Derbyshire. The graphene-enhanced cement (GEC) will be supplied to construction and academic partners investigating its performance and carbon-saving potential.
FP McCann will use 40–60t of the material in roof tile production at its Cadeby plant in Leicestershire, with testing to follow at its Knockloughrim R&D facility. The trial is part of a UK Government-funded Resource Efficient Construction Impacts project under the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and Defra’s Contracts for Innovation scheme. The project will assess performance, efficiency, and waste reduction over a five-month testing period.
