XG Science Corporation, a market leader in the design and manufacture of xGnP® graphene nanosheets and other advanced materials, today announced that they have completed the first phase of the expansion of their latest facility, which will occupy 64,000 square feet. The expansion has increased the production capacity of 90 metric tons of graphene nanosheets, bringing the total production capacity of this facility to approximately 180 metric tons and capable of producing up to 18 million kilograms of advanced materials per year. The second phase of the expansion is expected to be completed by the end of the year, which will bring the total nanographene production capacity of this facility to 400 tons.
XG's two graphene nanoflake production facilities have a total annual production capacity of more than 200 metric tons, which will double in the next three months and reach about 450 metric tons by the end of the year. This expansion supports XG's mission to continue using graphene for customer products in different industries.
XG's growing production capacity and strong R & D team will support the growing demand for XG products in the coming quarters. XG's R & D team assists customers to successfully integrate xGnP® graphene into their production lines, ultimately achieving enhanced mechanical, electrical, thermal and barrier capabilities. This team will also continue to integrate new processes and develop innovative product platforms to further expand the supply of XG advanced materials.
Bamidele Ali, Chief Commercial Officer of XG Sciences, said: "Expanding our production capacity and R & D team allows us to reach more customers and use more expertise to develop innovative solutions for these customers. The expertise of our team, This, coupled with proprietary manufacturing technology and increased production capacity, puts us in a favorable position for the commercialization of graphene and will enable us to provide new and advanced materials to customers worldwide.
