Concretene

Using graphene to decarbonise construction.

Developed by Nationwide Engineering Research & Development (NERD) and The University of Manchester’s Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC), Concretene is a graphene-enhanced admixture for concrete, engineered to improve performance and sustainability.

The technology improves the microstructure of concrete, significantly increasing compressive, tensile and flexural strength, reducing curing periods, microcracking and permeability.
