("Directa Plus" or the "Company")
R&D Agreement with Comerio Ercole
Directa Plus (AIM: DCTA), a leading producer and supplier of
graphene nanoplatelets based products for use in consumer and
industrial markets, announces that it has signed an agreement with
Comerio Ercole SpA ("Comerio") to pursue joint research and
development projects using the Company's G+ technology to develop
products in the rubber and tyres, plastic and non-woven materials
industries.
Comerio is a leading Italian engineering and manufacturing
company, founded in 1885, specialising in rubber and composite
material processing and in the machinery used to manufacture such
products. The company is well known globally for its focus on
innovation, quality and environmental protection. The partners will
use Comerio's own R&D laboratory, with mixing and calendering
machinery, to explore prototype processes using polymers and
elastomers that could in future be useful to produce and improve
compounds containing G+.
Directa Plus is interested both in testing its G+ technology in
polymer and elastomer manufacture and in promoting its activity and
products to end customers and users of Comerio machinery and
plants.
In addition, there may be opportunities to take part in events
and exhibitions attended by Comerio.
Commenting, Giulio Cesareo, Founder and CEO of Directa Plus,
said: "Working with selected partners who share our vision for
product development is a great way to bring graphene enhanced
products to market in partnership with established Italian,
European, and global companies. Combining Comerio's deep expertise
in materials and machinery with our world leading knowledge and
understanding of graphene, will help create new market
opportunities for both our companies."
Riccardo Comerio, CEO of Comerio Ercole, added: "Comerio Ercole
has always been a pioneer in the field of industrial innovation for
mixing and calendering processes. With Directa Plus we are now
undertaking an exciting new challenge to identify the most
promising uses of graphene in our machinery and plants for
selected, qualified customers. Based on our laboratory experience,
our target is to develop, tailored industrial machinery for
specific graphene applications."

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.
