Latest First Graphene (ASX:FGR) News

First Graphene has signed a three-year agreement with Turkish manufacturer Aeropreg to develop and potentially commercialise PureGRAPH-enhanced carbon fibre prepreg. The partnership offers a clearer route into aerospace, defence and automotive supply chains, but commercial launch remains dependent on trial results.

First Graphene lifted revenue by 15% to $537,594 for FY26 while narrowing its net loss slightly to $5.4 million. Key acquisitions and a landmark China cement distribution MOU set the stage for commercial expansion.
