Applied Graphene Materials signs distribution agreement with Rayoung Chemtech

Applied Graphene Materials (AGM, Cleveland, U.K.), the producer of specialty graphene nanoplatelet dispersions, announces that it has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Rayoung Chemtech Inc. (Taipei, Taiwan). The partnership will extend AGM’s commercial reach directly into the region’s liquid resins, coatings, composites and polymers sectors.

Founded in 2008, Rayoung Chemtech is committed to delivering high-performance specialty chemicals and is said to share AGM’s vision for helping customers improve material performance and strengthen product competitiveness. The distribution agreement will see the two companies collaborate on customer opportunities and introduce AGM’s proprietary Genable graphene dispersion technology into the Taiwanese coatings and composites market.

In addition to its own commercial hubs in the U.K. and the U.S., AGM now has distribution agreements with local expert chemicals and coatings distributors in a growing number of export markets. As a result, AGM says it has achieved optimal regional coverage providing detailed customer understanding and appreciation of graphene’s potential.

“We believe that the key to graphene’s continued commercialization is to combine innovative materials technology with a local customer approach that presents the practical advantages of use and the true potential of graphene dispersions in their applications,” Adrian Potts, AGM CEO, says. “We look forward to working with the team at Rayoung Chemtech Inc. to take advantage of the many opportunities in the Taiwanese market.”
