The GIANCE project has worked to organise several events on life cycle assessment over the last few months in addition to a consortium meeting held in Rome.

The SAFARI project has shared its insights on its Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) approach in several events this spring.

At the end of November 2024, a two-day expert workshop on Graphene Family Materials (GFM) was held by the OECD in Paris.

The GIANCE project is set to revolutionise material solutions across multiple industries by introducing a new generation of sustainable graphene-based materials (GRM-bM) that combine enhanced performance with a significant reduction in environmental impact. By focusing on circular design, lightweight construction, and multifunctionality, GIANCE aims to reduce energy consumption, cut CO2 emissions per vehicle over its lifetime, and promote material recyclability.

The applications for graphene use are broad, having altered the composition of electronics, energy storage and biomedical devices, sensors and composites and coatings over the past two decades. This is all due to its exceptional mechanical, electrical and thermal properties. However, what are the environmental impacts of its use and how does the cost limit its application?  

Graphene and related 2D materials can advance the all 17 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Young and innovative, Graphene Flagship Partner NANESA is creating products based on composite materials to meet the needs of clients across various fields.

Graphene Week 2023 is soon approaching. The 2023 edition of the Graphene Flagship’s Graphene Week will take place at Svenska Massan, in Gothenburg, Sweden from 4 -8 September 2023. With this year’s theme being ‘Turn Wonder into Action’, the conference is set to showcase the achievements of the Graphene Flagship and it’s partners this past decade and facilitate varied discussions on the future possibilities of Graphene research and applications.

Several spin-outs that are directly partnered with the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) at Graphene Flagship Partner The University of Manchester (UK) have received milestone funding, including a $1 billion investment.

Graphene has proven to be a game-changer in the textile industry, that’s why several sports and clothing brands are working with graphene suppliers to produce graphene-enriched fabrics.

Graphene is at once strong and light, thus it can be a great reinforcement material for the construction industry.
