Haydale Graphene Industries plc
(the "Company")
Investor Open Day on 22 June 2016
Haydale Graphene Industries plc (AIM: HAYD), the Group focused on enabling technology for the commercialisation of graphene and other nano materials, is pleased to announce it is holding an open day for investors, media, analysts and other interested parties at its composites business in Loughborough. The open day will take place between 11:00 and 14:45 on Wednesday 22 June 2016 at Haydale Composite Solutions, Unit 10, Charnwood Business Park, North Rd. Loughborough, LE11 1QJ.
There will be a series of presentations during the day providing guests with an opportunity to meet with Haydale staff and senior management.
Commenting on the open day, Ray Gibbs, Chief Executive said:
"This open day will enable visitors to learn more about the significant work we are doing in the composites arena. We will be demonstrating some of the advances we have made in nano materials technology, processing techniques and applications including high impact resistant automotive bodywork, thermally conductive and precision composite tooling systems, 3 D printing and pressure sensor technology. We are all very excited about moving into the applications phase of applying nano materials technology to composite products and look forward to demonstrating the benefits of nano composites and commercial opportunities"
Please be advised that numbers are strictly limited so people wishing to attend are requested to register their interest in advance by emailing info@haydale.com or by telephoning the Company.

About Haydale
Haydale has developed a patented scalable plasma process to functionalise graphene and other nanomaterials. This enabling technology can provide Haydale with a rapid and highly cost-efficient method of supplying tailored solutions to enhance applications for both raw material suppliers and product manufacturers.
Functionalisation is carried out through a patented low-pressure plasma process that treats both mined, organic fine powder and other synthetically produced nanomaterial powders, producing high-quality few layered graphenes and graphene nanoplatelets. The process can functionalise with a range of chemical groups, with the level of functionalisation tailored to the customer's needs. Good dispersion improves the properties and performance of the host material and ensures the final product performs as specified.
The Haydale plasma process does not use wet chemistry, nor does it damage the material being processed; rather, it can clean up any impurities inherent in the raw material. The technology is a low energy user and most importantly environmentally friendly. The Haydale process is a patented enabling technology, allowing the Group to work with a raw material producer who seeks to add value to the base product and tailor the outputs to meet the target applications of the end user.
Haydale, based in South Wales and housed in a purpose-built facility for processing and handling nanomaterials, is facilitating the application of graphenes and other nanomaterials in fields such as inks, sensors, energy storage, composites, paints and coatings.
