Directa Plus plc
("Directa Plus" or the "Company")
Collaboration Agreement with Ambienthesis S.p.A.
Directa Plus (AIM: DCTA), a producer and supplier of
graphene-based products for use in consumer and industrial markets,
is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a collaboration
agreement ("the Agreement") with Ambienthesis S.p.A.
("Ambienthesis").
Ambienthesis specialises in the reclamation, environmental
remediation and treatment, recovery and disposal of hazardous and
non-hazardous waste. Its areas of expertise include: environmental
remediation; disposal and recovery of industrial waste; design,
construction and management of systems for the disposal and
recovery of industrial waste and energy production. Ambienthesis is
listed on the Milan Stock Exchange.
The agreement will involve the evaluation, development and
promotion of products, plants and services, which will be used for
the remediation of soil and groundwater and industrial waste waters
at Ambienthesis' plant in Orbassano, Turin. The materials will use
the Company's G+ graphene products, particularly Grafysorber(R).
Grafysorber(R) has been independently tested(1) to demonstrate that
the material performs at least five times better than the other
adsorbent products currently on the market, at a very low cost to
high efficiency ratio, and the used adsorbent material can be
recovered and recycled.
Testing will start at the beginning of 2019 and will be
performed using a mobile treatment plant provided by Directa Plus,
specifically engineered for the project. The collaboration
agreement will be divided into two phases: phase one will last
approximately six months and will aim to verify the treatment
capacity for various types of liquid waste that will be the subject
of studies and experiments. The outcome of phase one will then
define the basis of a potential commercial agreement between the
parties as the second phase of the process.
Commenting on the agreement, Giulio Cesareo, Founder and CEO of
Directa Plus, said: "Extending the use of our advanced
Grafysorber(R) product into the industrial waste and soil
remediation markets is an important step forward. This agreement
with Ambienthesis potentially expands our target sectors for
environmental treatment services significantly and follows our
strategy of using locally based, but internationally active,
Italian companies as a springboard to global markets."

About Directa Plus
Our focus is principally on the two sectors in which we have
strong commercial advantage through developed and launched products
and a technological lead: environmental (based on our
Grafysorber(R) product) and textiles (based on our G+ products). In
addition, we will continue to pursue opportunities in elastomers
and composites (including tyres and asphalt), also using our G+
products. All our products are hypoallergenic, non-toxic and
sustainably produced.
