June 1, 2017 / TheNewswire / Calverton, NY - Graphene 3D Lab Inc. (TSXV:GGG, OTCQB:GPHBF) ("Graphene 3D" or the "Company") and AzTrong Inc. ("AzT") are pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which outlines the terms of the Strategic Alliance Agreement to be executed in the near future. The goal of the Alliance is to capitalize on the Company's broad base of customers and extensive IP portfolio in the graphene sector, while AzT will contribute its large-scale manufacturing base with well-developed infrastructure in the USA and Taiwan. The desired outcome is a cost effective production of performance-improving graphene-based products with focus on energy storage, construction, automotive and defense sectors.

Graphene 3D co-CEO Dr. Daniel Stolyarov commented: "I am very excited about the opportunities arising from our strategic partnership with AzTrong Inc. We believe that this partnership is key to the successful commercialization of graphene products. So far, the market penetration of our products was hindered by the lack of manufacturing capabilities in our Calverton, NY facility. That is why we are delighted to find a reliable business partner who will assist us in implementing our ideas for new products at the commercial scale"

"Working together with Graphene 3D will help us expand and diversify our offering for graphene products," added Kuan-Tsae Huang, CEO of AzTrong, Inc. "As a leading supplier of graphene and graphene-based products, we are confident that our manufacturing capabilities, coupled with the broad expertise of Graphene 3D Lab will facilitate accelerated new product introductions that offer our customers new and novel graphene products."

Subject to the final agreement, Graphene 3D will continue to develop formulations for graphene-related products while conducting tests and quality control measurements. The Company will also contribute its extensive knowledge in marketing for the graphene related products, while AzT will perform the large-scale manufacturing of the products. The products will be distributed by both companies including the e-commerce web stores, Graphene Supermarket , BlackMagic3D and G6-Epoxy , operated by Graphene 3D.
