The Test Results Demonstrate Significant Utility and Commercialization Potential for the Company’s Technology

  

Ronkonkoma, New York, USA - TheNewswire – September 7, 2021 - G6 Materials Corp. (“G6” or the “Company”) (TSXV:GGG) (OTC:GPHBF), a technology company developing innovative graphene-based solutions, today announced the results of the antimicrobial efficacy test on a prototype of G6’s proprietary graphene-based air purifier (the “Lab Test”) conducted by a US-based microbiological laboratory of The Intertek Group plc. The test showed that the concentration of pathogenic microorganisms present in the testing chamber was reduced by 99.9% (“Test Results”) over the duration of the experiment.

Two different pathogens were randomly chosen to be tested under each experiment, which were the E. coli bacteria and the Phi-X174 bacteriophage. The duration of the Lab Test was set to two hours. The Test Results were documented in an Efficacy Test Report (the “Test Report”) that has been received by the Company and summarized below:

Organism Type:	Small, Non-Enveloped Virus	Bacteria
Organism Name:	Phi-X174 bacteriophage	E. coli
Organism Source:	Carolina Bioscience	ATCC
ATCC Number:	13706-B1	11229
Temperature Min./Max.:	21o C (70 o F)	21o C (70 o F)
Humidity Min./Max.:	55% RH	60% RH
Percent Reduction:	99.9%	99.9%

The Test Report documents the microbial reduction rate test that was conducted, including information regarding the test procedure, organisms, equipment, media and reagents, sample acquisition and a summary of the results. The Test Report has been made available for download on the Air Purification Systems page of G6’s website at www.G6-materials.com.

The Company began developing the proprietary technology contained in the graphene-based air purification prototype in early 2020. The first successful implementation of G6’s unique approach to allow for the incorporation of graphene oxide in an air filtration system for the purpose of improving its antimicrobial performance was previously announced on April 1, 2020. Since that time, the Company has filed a provisional patent application that summarizes its proprietary approach.

The global air purifier market size was valued at US$10.67 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 10.0% from 2021 to 2028, according to the Market Analytic Report by Grand View Research.

Management Commentary:

 

“We are excited to receive these positive results from a respected independent laboratory. Now, we are eager to take the next steps toward the commercialization of this technology, including obtaining all necessary licenses, government approvals and accreditations to enable us to bring the product to the market. Currently, we are finalizing the plans to manufacture the graphene-enhanced air purifier and are preparing its initial marketing campaign, more information about which will be announced in the future,” said Daniel Stolyarov, President & CEO of G6 Materials Corp. “I am very proud of our team and appreciate the hard work and dedication that was required from each of them in order to reach this point. We are also proud to develop a product that is capable of making our homes and offices safer in these difficult times,” added Mr. Stolyarov.
