Company Summary

Graphensic is a spin-off from research at LiU that now is moving from being a material supplier to a device supplier. Based on years of investigating applications for the material, we’ve finally found an application area where our expertise can have a huge impact and probably shift the industry standard to our material on the long term. We’ve talked to several key customers and are ready to fully commit to provide solutions for their markets.
