Distribution Agreement

Haydale Graphene Industries plc ("Haydale" or the "Company") Announces Distribution Agreement with Goodfellow Cambridge Limited Haydale Graphene Industries plc (AIM:HAYD), the Company focused on enablingtechnology for the commercialisation of graphene, is pleased to announce it hasentered into a distribution agreement with Goodfellow Cambridge Limited("Goodfellow") ("Agreement"), widely regarded as one of the premier globaldistributors of advanced materials for R&D, prototyping and specialisedmanufacturing. The Agreement is a rolling annual contract and will focus on the globalmarketing and distribution of Haydale HDPlas® functionalised graphenenanoplatelets (GNPs) to major research and industrial clients throughGoodfellow's international network. Ray Gibbs, CEO at Haydale, commented: "This Agreement is integral to the distribution of our functionalised GNPsacross the global R&D market. The research departments served by Goodfellow arethe first step in the adoption of any new material, and this Agreement marks asignificant step forward in demonstrating the improved material properties thatour functionalisation method achieves. The endorsement as a supplier toGoodfellow represents a significant step forward for us, and we are delightedthat they have agreed to list our GNP product." "Goodfellow's extensive customer base will be instrumental in achieving greateraccess and visibility for our HDPlas® range. This will allow more R&D customersworldwide to test the improvement in product performance obtained by addingGNPs functionalised via our plasma process. We look forward to working closelywith them to deliver the HDPlas® range internationally." Stephen Aldersley, Managing Director of Goodfellow, believes that the newrelationship with Haydale is an important expansion of Goodfellow's activitiesin the field of nanoparticles in general and graphene in particular. Commentingon the Agreement, he said: "The Haydale plasma process can demonstrate significant advantages over otherfunctionalisation methods, and we are pleased to be promoting their products toour global customer base in this very important research area. We are alwayslooking for new, unique materials and the Haydale offering is certainly onethat meets our strict criteria." - ends - For further information please contact: Haydale Graphene Industries plc 01269 842 946 John Knowles, Chairman Ray Gibbs, Chief Executive Officer Cairn Financial Advisers LLP (Nomad) 0207 148 7900 Tony Rawlinson Paul Trendell Cantor Fitzgerald Europe (Broker) 020 7894 7000 David Foreman Paul Jewell Hermes Financial PR Trevor Phillips 07889 153 628 Chris Steele 07979 604 687 About Haydale Haydale has developed a patent-pending proprietary scalable plasma process tofunctionalise graphene and other nanomaterials. This enabling technology canprovide Haydale with a rapid and highly cost-efficient method of supplyingtailored solutions to enhance applications for both raw material suppliers andproduct manufacturers. Functionalisation is carried out through a low-pressure plasma process thattreats both mined, organic fine powder and other synthetically producednanomaterial powders, producing high-quality few layered graphenes and graphenenanoplatelets. The process can functionalise with a range of chemical groups,with the level of functionalisation tailored to the customer's needs. Gooddispersion improves the properties and performance of the host material andensures the final product performs as specified. The Haydale plasma process does not use wet chemistry, nor does it damage thematerial being processed; rather, it can clean up any impurities inherent inthe raw material. The technology is a low energy user and most importantlyenvironmentally friendly. The Haydale method is an enabling technology,allowing the Company to work with a raw material producer who seeks to addvalue to the base product and tailor the outputs to meet the targetapplications of the end user. Haydale, based in South Wales and housed in a purpose-built facility forprocessing and handling nanomaterials, is facilitating the application ofgraphenes and other nanomaterials in fields such as inks, sensors, energystorage, photovoltaics, composites, paints and coatings. www.haydale.com About Goodfellow For more than 45 years, the Goodfellow name has been synonymous with smallquantities of high-quality metals, polymers, ceramics and other materials thatmeet the research, development, and specialised production requirements ofscience and industry worldwide.
