Enjoy Your round!
The news we were hoping for, which was previously hinted by the company, was the actual testing of the fabric using the actual Covid-19 virus. Graphene has antiviral properties, so claims by others can be made, but using the actual virus. Also speechless!
Itsyou,
Congrats in order matey! I am lost for words!
The market will soon wake up to how G+ can be added to all fabrics. That with SYM covering plastics will hopefully kick off a new revolution in product design. Not even mentioning all the other DCTA verticals! Graphene has arrived!
Amazing news!
Off for a round now. Enjoy the day folks!

First, reposting my post from back in June, with his paper titled "Can graphene take part in the fight against COVID-19?"
"In this you tube presentation from yesterday, Directa mention they are collaborating with Massimiliano Papi, when talking about testing their masks for anti viral properties.
He's got quite a few other Graphene publications, here's the Covid one
"The pneumonia outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) represents a global issue. The bidimensional material graphene has captured much attention due to promising antimicrobial applications and has also demonstrated antiviral efficacy. In response to this global outbreak, we summarized the current state of knowledge of graphene and virus interaction as well as possible successful applications to fight COVID-19. Antibody-conjugated graphene sheets can rapidly detect targeted virus proteins and can be useful for large population screening, but also for the development of environmental sensors and filters, given the low cost of graphene materials. The functionalized graphene has demonstrated a good viral capture capacity that, combined with heat or light-mediated inactivation, could be used as a disinfectant. Graphene sensors arrays can be implemented on standard utility textiles and drug efficacy screening. Thanks to its high versatility, we foresee that graphene may have a leading role in the fight against COVID-19."

Co-Mask Anti-Viral (COVID-19) Properties Confirmed
Directa Plus plc
("Directa Plus" or the "Company")
Strong Anti-Viral (COVID-19) Properties Confirmed for Co-Mask™
Directa Plus (AIM: DCTA), a leading producer and supplier of graphene nanoplatelets based products for use in consumer and industrial markets, announces that its G+® graphene enhanced facemask, Co-mask™, has been confirmed as having strong anti-viral properties by a team at the Department of Neuroscience, Catholic University of Rome, operating in conjunction with the Gemelli Hospital in Rome.
The team, under Professor Massimiliano Papi, tested G+® enhanced fabrics with SARS-CoV-2, the strain of coronavirus that causes the respiratory illness responsible for the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The preliminary results show that the G+® graphene can improve textile properties and significantly reduce the measured incidence of SARS-CoV-2 when the virus is deposited or filtered through functionalised cotton or a non-woven fabric (polyurethane). A scientific paper containing the full details of the trial and the results is underway and is expected to be published shortly.
The Company's Co-mask™ range of G+® enhanced masks is designed to be suitable for use by commuters, in the workplace, and for sport and exercise. The masks offer an optimum balance between breathability and filtration efficiency and thanks to the use of G+® are a natural and environmentally sustainable solution. The masks are washable at least 50 times, providing material cost benefits and, in addition to being strongly anti-bacterial, they have now been confirmed as having anti-SARS-CoV-2 properties. The Company's range was launched in June and is available for retail sale at a dedicated website: https://graphene-plus.com/
Commenting, Giulio Cesareo, Founder and CEO of Directa Plus, said: "I would like to congratulate Professor Papi and his team on the first research project to test G+® graphene enhanced fabrics for their anti-viral qualities and, importantly, their ability to significantly reduce occurrence of SARS-CoV-2. I am also pleased that the team has verified the anti-bacterial properties of graphene enhanced fabrics, which are essential for the prolonged use of masks.
"These preliminary results confirm that the application of our technology can significantly enhance facemask efficacy and can help to reduce the spreading of SARS-CoV-2. Our G+® graphene solutions are non-toxic and environmentally sustainable, overcoming the health and other problems associated with current ion-metal or halogen treatments. The Company is now in early stage discussions with possible commercial partners for this application."

Hey Trek,
Was just saying the same to the Mrs. Why wouldn't everyone want this is everything we use daily?
I've had leather car seats/furniture in the past, but was always sweaty in summer and cold in winter; using the Thermal Plannar circuit heat dispersion technology will assist here. Then we have the antibacterial, antiviral properties. Potential to charge our phone by just being on the leather? Won't wear out as quick and finally won't fade in the sun.
" It is anticipated that G+(R) enhanced leather will provide antimicrobial and antiviral properties, improved thermal regulation, electrical conductivity, and mechanical properties such as as abrasion resistance and UV resilience."
Is there no end to the usage of G+!

Looks bad, I sent an email off to the Mauritius gov on their website, if it gets read maybe they'll use the graysorber tech. They could do a lot worse.
Wouldn't just be the co. it would be good for by the looks of that leak either.
a test for grafysorber? Now that would light a match under the share.

Also, they have a GraphenePlus logo, instead of G+.
Much better marketing IMO, as most will not know what the trademark G+ means. Plus using Graphene will show everyone what they are made of and a Google search has their site at the Top.
They are doing Kids Masks now, with a Super Hero one and a cheaper one that's the first mask without the additional filter
https://graphene-plus.com/product/super-hero/

Good to see they've now also put this wording in "Extensively washable over 50 times without damages." and the "Each filter lasts one working week"

In the Iterchimica headquarters, chemists and engineers worked in parallel, the former on materials, the latter on design. Subsequently, the right mix of asphalt was developed by the official Poliedro laboratory.
«Once the right mixture was developed - adds Federica Giannattasio - we accompanied the company in charge of laying the asphalt to the construction site. They were weeks of very hard work, lived at a very intense pace, but it was a great satisfaction for the company and for our guys. Living that construction site, taking part in the construction of such a significant work, is exciting and a source of pride for a medium-sized company like ours, which focuses entirely on innovation and research ».

Reduces traffic noise as well
Ponte Genova San Giorgio, the beautiful story of sustainable asphalt
It is more durable and overall there is a saving of CO2 emissions in the production and maintenance of this material of 60%
[6 August 2020]
The families of the victims of the former Morandi bridge, which collapsed two years ago, are right , are right when they say that there is nothing to celebrate with respect to the reconstruction just completed. But knowing that at least things seem to have been done with attention to the environment too, is always better than nothing. This is why it is right to point out that the asphalt used for the infrastructure inaugurated a few days ago, which today is called the Genoa San Giorgio bridge, not only "resists twice as long as traditional ones", but is built with a recovery process of plastics, in a logic of circular economy.
To make it more durable, it is explained by Iterchimica, the company that produced it , an innovative additive was used that increases the performance of the asphalt, improving its ability to withstand thermal excursions and the weather, rain and Sun. A “sustainable” blend, given that, as mentioned, it also uses recycled plastic, and which is also sound-absorbing and therefore allows vehicle noise to be reduced to a minimum.
The project, Iterchimica always explains, was born almost five years ago, with the idea of ??recovering plastics that are not currently recycled but end up in the waste-to-energy cycle, launched together with the Lombardy Region and tested on some particularly critical road sections, such as the tracks. airports of Fiumicino airport.
And it was precisely this long experimentation that gave rise to the technology chosen by Webuild for the asphalt of the Genoa bridge, a product that brings together all the innovation of this sector and Webuild's propensity to use materials with a strong component of sustainability. Inside there are recycled plastics and graphene, which give the asphalt - in the conditions already tested - 250% greater resistance than traditional ones.
«Our company has two patents on this product - explains Federica Giannattasio, CEO of Iterchimica -. The first for the plastic recovery process, and the second for the final additive that is made ».
Inside the asphalt the plastics of the toys or those of the benches are recovered, all materials that before this patent were not part of the recycling chain.
"It is a sustainable project - continues Giannattasio - and the Milano-Bicocca University has calculated that, both for the recovery of plastics and for the longer life of the asphalt, there is a saving of CO2 emissions in the production and maintenance of this 60% material ".
In the Iterchimica headquarters, chemists and engineers worked in parallel, the former on materials, the latter on design. Subsequently, the right mix of asphalt was developed by the official Poliedro laboratory.
Yes, interesting. Does anyone know if the Gipave uses stone chippings and bitumen at all? He talked a lot about the waste plastic it was using - of the kind that is not recyclable and must go to landfill. It is sounding to me as if they have replaced the bitumenous pitch binder with something with a lot of this recyclable plastic plus some graphene, which when it finally deteriorates can be scooped up and just reheated and relaid? Possible no bitumen at all, and hence a lot of landfill-destined plastic. Fantastic if so. Oil industry won't like it!
Thanks for the link. Well worth a watch imo. Wonder what the new product is re cv he's alluding too at the end of the vid?
Sounds mask related, will watch for the RNS.
GC interview : https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=9&v=zuWg9j0pRUU&feature=emb_logo
PS If you watched the news last night you'll have seen that the Italians made a huge fanfare of opening the new bridge (and having achieved it so quickly). Flypasts with the Italian colours, etc. It may not make a big impression in the UK but in Italy it will really get noticed. In a way subconsciously it may even become the patriotic choice, as well as the green one - and as we believe the one making the most economic sense. Stand by for major Italian orders in the coming months??
Topped up - again.
My guess is this is not strictly RNS material. But they've RNS'd it anyway, which many companies wouldn't have done. At least they are working on the marketing. It looks like they are excited by it themselves. Me too! Ticks every box.
Interesting that the country outside Italy where it has been being tested is the UK.
This share seems so under the radar. Good news keeps coming but price doesn’t rise. It can’t stay that way for long. I continue building my holding in these conditions.
I can think of a certain UK graphene company whose share price would probably double on a rumour of being involved in a bridge project never mind actually being involved
1st step to transforming a whole market. One of many!!
Moving forward all the time with this though so think punters will catch on eventually. Industry should note this one.
Comment at the bottom is the biggie for me, think this is going to be big..
"This is an Italian technology to build green, high-tech, highly resistant, eco-sustainable and 100% recyclable road pavements. It generates environmental and economic benefits for users and is a product that helps to meet Green and Circular Economy standards, UN Sustainable Development Goals and the COP 21 Paris Agreement."
Yes indeed. That’s more like it! GC even took time out of his hols to comment!
With the modern world about to embark on a Keynesian infrastructure project and the need to manage carbon at the same time this is awesome timing.
They need to push this now through the relevant professional media channels so engineers and govts are aware of these awesome environmental and cost benefits.

This should have been shouted from the roof tops. Good advertising opportunity missed for Gpave. This is why a lot of people dont know much about G pave .
Huge market potential with g pave a d our first integration on such a high profile construction.
Onwards and upwards surely has to test £1 after this news!
