Nottingham houses test graphene-infused infrared wallpaper
A trial is underway in 45 social housing groups across the UK that could revolutionize the way we heat our homes, especially those that have long battled with issues like heat leakage and inefficient insulation. A graphene-enhanced infrared wallpaper, developed by NexGen Heating, is being tested in a project targeting social housing and older properties that are notoriously hard to insulate.
By infusing wallpaper with graphene, NexGen Heating has created a product that emits infrared heat, warming objects and people directly in a manner reminiscent of sunlight. This direct form of heating is not only efficient but also customizable to fit the aesthetics of any room, promising an unobtrusive addition to homes. Furthermore, the potential for integration with solar panels and batteries could make this a cornerstone of sustainable living, significantly reducing reliance on fossil fuels. NexGen Heating says infrared can provide greener, cheaper heating when paired with solar panels and batteries.
GMG updates on the commercialization of Nu-Calgon's product, powered by GMG Graphene
Graphene Manufacturing Group (GMG) has updated on the commercialization progress of THERMAL-XR® powered by GMG Graphene, announcing that Nu-Calgon has held its official launch of the CoolWorx® powered by GMG Graphene in the USA at the AHR Expo.

Nanotech Energy announces launch of graphene batteries production plant Chico 2
Nanotech Energy has announced that graphene-based battery cells will go into full production in early 2024 at its new 150MW manufacturing facility Chico 2.
Nanotech Energy successfully completed trial weeks at Chico 2 in November and December. Almost all equipment is now in place at the Chico, CA site, and final processes are being refined ahead of a launch that will eventually generate 30,000 18650 battery cells per day.
Ora Graphene and Merry Electronics to soon ship off-the-shelf premium graphene-based headphone drivers
Ora Graphene, producer of free-standing graphene membranes, announced a partnership with Taiwan-based Merry Electronics to develop off-the-shelf GrapheneQ headphone drivers. These, according to Ora, will be the world's first commercially available graphene-based drivers. The two companies will offer 40 mm and 50 mm drivers, which will be available for pre-order in Q1 2024.
Ora Graphene says that it already integrated its technology into flagship products for two major consumer electronics companies - both of these premium gaming headphones. The availability of off-the-shelf headphone drivers will hopefully accelerate the adoption of Ora's technology.
Kemind and 2DFab update on successful graphene-enhanced corrugated boards project
Italy-based Kemind previously reported the development of new graphene-enhanced glue concepts, that have been applied to its corrugating production process. It was said that the new glue increases production efficiency, reduces costs and improves quality for several of Kemind's corrugated board products. Now, Kemind and 2DFab (which supplies the graphene materials for the project) have updated their satisfaction with the project, stating that Kemigraph® B has been in commercial for several years, and Kemind is continuously buying graphene from 2DFab.
By adding graphene to their glue formula for corrugated boards, the global chemical company Kemind has managed to increase production efficiency as well as improve quality for various corrugated board products. Kemind sees great potential in graphene and plans on extending the use of the material in more applications.
New gaming headset by Logitech to use graphene audio driver
Logitech G, a brand of Logitech and leading innovator of gaming technologies and gear, has unveiled the Logitech G ASTRO A50 X LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Headset and Base Station, the fifth generation of the ASTRO A50 Series console gaming headset.
The new ASTRO A5O X is designed to deliver the ultimate console headset experience and will include (among other technological innovations), the PRO-G Graphene Audio Driver technology for high performance gaming audio.
TEAMGROUP launches new G Series SSDs with graphene heatsinks
TeamGroup has announced that its portfolio of high-speed solid state drives (SSDs) is expanding, with the launch of four new models, including the T-Force G70 Pro, T-Force G70, T-Force G50 Pro, and T-Force G50.
TEAMGROUP’s new T-Force G70, G70 Pro, G50 and G50 Pro are the company’s latest SSDs available in the M.2 2280 format. Each of these SSDs comes fitted with patented ultra-thin graphene heatsinks, however the G70 Pro is also available with an aluminium alloy heatsink that also fits within the PS5 SSD expansion slot.
EnyGy plans to launch graphene supercapacitor in 2024
Australia-based energy storage solutions developer EnyGy has been working on a graphene-enhanced supercapacitor that can provide "increased energy storage capacity within the same package size, known as enhanced energy density, enabling the realization of compact, fast energy storage", according to CEO Wiehann de Klerk.
The Company stated that the supercapacitor, called enyGcap, is currently undergoing trials, with a market launch expected in 2024.
Versarien launches new range of graphene-based compounds
Versarien has announced the launch of a portfolio of graphene and related nanomaterial-based thermoplastic polymer compounds, branded under the name Polygrene. The Company says that the Polygrene line is the culmination of extensive collaborative efforts with the International Institute for Nanocomposites Manufacturing (IINM) at WMG, University of Warwick.
The new range has potential applications across a variety of industries, including sports equipment, construction products, aerospace and automotive components. This versatility showcases the adaptability and strength of the new graphene-infused materials.
ONE Condoms launches graphene-enhanced condoms
U.S-based ONE Condoms has launched graphene-enhanced condoms, after nearly a decade of research and development.
ONE Condoms' website says that "ONE scientists molecularly bonded graphene, the thinnest and strongest material on earth, with Sensatex®, our proprietary, ultra-soft, vegan latex". The Company explained that when bonded together, graphene molecules fill the space between latex molecules, creating a new material that advances thinness, flexibility, and thermal conductivity.
