Argo Graphene Solutions Corp. has announced a purchase order with Ceylon Graphene Technologies of Sri Lanka for one metric tonne of graphene oxide paste (approximately 20% pure graphene oxide).
The purchase order includes 1,000 kg of graphene oxide paste, which is expected to yield approximately 50 tons of liquid dispersion for use as a direct additive in concrete. The paste will be packaged and shipped to Argo’s mixing facility in Kenner, Louisiana, for final product preparation and distribution. This agreement marks a step toward establishing a long-term relationship with Ceylon Graphene to meet the growing global demand for high-purity graphene in the concrete, cement, and asphalt sectors.
Argo’s President and CEO, Scott Smale, visited Ceylon Graphene’s facilities in Homagama, Sri Lanka in July of 2025. During the visit, Mr. Smale held discussions with Ceylon Graphene’s CEO, Manju Gunawardana, and toured the company’s laboratory and production facility, as well as the Sri Lanka Institute of Nanotechnology (SLINTEC), where advanced graphene characterization and testing are conducted.
“This purchase agreement is a pivotal milestone for Argo,” said Mr. Smale. “Recent advancements in graphene production and new scientific testing highlight the transformative potential of graphene in the construction industry. We are excited to leverage this technology to deliver cutting-edge, sustainable solutions for the construction sector.”
