Innovative printed materials
for a sustainable future
GRAPHENATON Technologies SA prints inks made from innovative materials—including graphene —to produce functional films that are integrated into industrial applications that contribute to energy efficiency: heating (ABF® films), flexible photovoltaics, and energy storage (PSC™ cells).
Graphene: A
"Wonder Material"
Graphene is a two-dimensional material consisting of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a regular hexagonal structure. It was first isolated experimentally in 2004 by Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov at the University of Manchester. This scientific breakthrough earned them the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2010.
Its exceptional physical and chemical properties surpass those of conventional materials: extreme electron mobility, record-breaking thermal conductivity, and unmatched mechanical strength, while remaining flexible and lightweight.

A material of the future, but...
how can it be industrialized?
Its exceptional properties are consistent with those observed in a single atomic layer. Producing it on a large scale remains a major technical and economic challenge.
Traditional methods: costly and limiting
Synthesis techniques such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) require sophisticated infrastructure and a strictly controlled environment, which significantly increases production costs.
Added to this are issueswith adhesion to substrates, size, and compatibility with conventional materials—all obstacles that limit graphene to niche applications at prohibitive costs.
High-speed printing of graphene inks
GTSA uses graphene inks obtained by exfoliating graphite, which are deposited in thin layers using industrial screen printing.
The process is cost-effective, reproducible, and compatible with a wide variety of substrates —including plastic films, gypsum boards, composites, glass, and fabrics— paving the way for large-scale production of functional films.
Four steps, an industrial pace...
Substrate preparation
Polymer film, glass, fabric, drywall, or composite material prepared to ensure adhesion and uniformity of the coating.
Ink printing
Encres graphène déposées par sérigraphie à basse température (< 120 °C), avec contrôle précis de la résistivité.
Encapsulation & Connection
Application-specific encapsulation: sealing and insulation.
Active function
The film is ready to heat, generate, or store energy, depending on the formulation chosen.

Three sectors, one technology
A technology platform for three sectors that cover most of the energy cycle: heating, generation, and storage.
Heating films:
Active Building Film®
OEM graphene heating film developed according to the specified technical and commercial requirements.
Extended performance characteristics:
from 12V to 400V, up to 5 kW/m², with no thermal inertia.
Infrared radiation (8–14 μm), with an efficiency of nearly 100%, acts directly on people and surfaces without passing through the air and without any loss.
Supercapacitors
Printed Supercapacitor Cells™
Whereas lithium-ion batteries store energy through electrochemical reactions, supercapacitors store it purely through electrostatic means: ions accumulate on the surface of the electrodes without any chemical reaction. The result: recharging in just a few seconds and over1 million cycles.
Thanks to printed graphene electrodes, PSC™ goes beyond conventional supercapacitors: higher power density, a flexible, printable format that can be integrated into any surface, and a clean manufacturing process free of toxic solvents.
Perovskite + Graphene Cells
Perovskites enable photovoltaic conversion, while graphene servesas a contact electrode to improve charge extraction and transport. Together, they enable the production of flexible, ultra-lightweight solar films that can be printed at 120 °C.
An approach that breaks free from the limitations of silicon— recyclability, dependence on China, energy-intensive processes—to achieve a truly sovereign transition.
Technology at the heart of the energy transition
Our printing processes are carried out at temperatures significantly lower than those of conventional manufacturing methods, reducing energy consumption. Their low cost facilitates widespread adoption and strengthens their role in the transition.
Contribution to meeting CSRD objectives
Under the new CSRD directive, companies must report on their environmental impact: energy consumption, CO₂ emissions, and dependence on scarce resources.
