Localising graphene-enriched carbon fibre production in KSA

IN a significant step towards localising advanced materials production, Organized Chaos Holding (OCH) and Graphene Innovations Manchester (GIM) have launched GIM GrapheneFibre® in Saudi Arabia, marking the first-ever commercial production of grapheneenriched carbon fibre in the Kingdom.

This groundbreaking venture establishes Saudi Arabia as a global leader in the production of this high-performance material, directly supporting the nation’s Vision 2030 objectives of fostering innovation, sustainability, and economic diversification.

By localising the manufacturing of grapheneenriched carbon fibre, the initiative strengthens Saudi Arabia’s position in the advanced materials sector and contributes to the growth of local industries, workforce development, and technology-driven economic growth.

Graphene-enriched carbon fibre is a gamechanger; it combines extraordinary strength, lightness, and conductivity to enable breakthroughs in aerospace, automotive, renewable energy, space, defence, and construction.

From local raw material sourcing to an emphasis on cutting-edge technologies, GIM GrapheneFibre stands as a beacon of Saudi excellence, accelerating the Kingdom’s global influence in advanced manufacturing.
