Mito Material Solutions opens new facility in Indianapolis

Mito Material Solutions has launched its new 7,000 sq ft headquarters in Indianapolis. The company develops additives to enhance performance of composites and plastics, including its flagship graphene oxide-based additive E-GO.

At the new facility, Mito houses its staff offices, commercial-scale graphene functionalization and dispersion equipment, an R&D laboratory where the company can fabricate sample parts with its materials and an in-house analytical room for testing material properties. The R&D lab includes capabilities for hand layup, vacuum infusion and waterjet cutting with more equipment to come, and the testing room includes equipment to test a sample part’s flexure and tensile strength, interlaminar toughness, compression strength, as well as thermal, electrical and vibrational properties.
