Middle East-based gas solutions company Gulf Cryo and HydroGraph Clean Power Inc (HydroGraph) will collaborate to bring ‘pristine’ graphene to the Middle East.

Having entered into a Memorandum of Understanding, the partners will jointly assess the local market and identify a location for a commercial-scale graphene production unit to supply graphene to the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan and Egypt.

The partnership will focus mainly on the areas of lubricants, resins, bottling and concrete, with the planning and market assessment phases expected to last three to five months.
