Graphene and Ferro companies agree on distribution and sales partnership for Black Swan tech.

In a significant move for the South African market, Black Swan Graphene Inc. and Ferro South Africa have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate the commercial adoption of Black Swan's innovative graphene-enhanced materials. This collaboration is set to revolutionise the industrial, packaging, automotive, and polymer sectors in South Africa.

Ferro South Africa, a leading base material manufacturer specialising in polymers, additives, and industrial materials, brings its deep local expertise and strong industrial relationships to the table. This partnership offers Black Swan a robust platform to expand its graphene technology throughout South Africa’s rapidly developing markets.

The agreement, which has a five-year term with provisions for renewal by mutual consent, covers pricing, logistics, documentation, invoicing, payment terms, and technical support. This comprehensive arrangement ensures streamlined distribution and customer assistance, supporting reliable supply and adoption of Black Swan's Graphene Enhanced Masterbatch™ (GEM) and graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) products.

One of the key benefits of this partnership is market penetration and growth. With Ferro's presence in multiple manufacturing sectors, the application of graphene-enhanced materials is set to broaden across diverse industries in South Africa. This could potentially lead to advanced product offerings and increased competitiveness for South African manufacturers.

The partnership also provides enhanced technology access for South African manufacturers. By partnering with Black Swan, they gain easier access to innovative graphene-enhanced masterbatch and nanoplatelet solutions. These solutions can improve material performance, offering benefits such as increased strength, conductivity, and durability.

Ferro South Africa will distribute and resell Black Swan's GEM products and graphene nanoplatelet solutions in South Africa under the terms of the non-exclusive distribution and sales agreement. This strategic move aligns with Black Swan's global expansion strategy, establishing a sustainable presence in the South African market.
