The Swedish manufacturer of smart textiles Grafren AB, Lin-koping, is specialized in producing graphene flakes and applying these to textiles and other products. The company were established in 2018 as a spin-off from nearby Linkoping University, a Graphene Flagship Associated Member. The interest has always been in graphene flakes, because they are affordable and have a number of potential applications. The company believes in the importance of the quality of graphene, which can make all the difference between a successful and failed demonstration of graphene-based materials. Having the right thickness of graphene is essential to benefit from its specific properties. However, this is always a challenge with graphene flakes because the manufacturing method can result in flakes of different thicknesses and lateral sizes.
