International Graphite Ltd CEO and MD Andrew Worland talked with Proactive about the company’s memorandum of understanding with Italian chemical group Alkeemia S.p.A. to establish a graphite processing facility in Europe, marking a key step in its strategy to enter Western battery materials supply chains.
Alkeemia is a major European supplier of hydrofluoric acid, a critical reagent used in graphite purification, particularly for battery anode materials.
The planned facility offers strong logistical advantages, including established transport networks and a fully permitted industrial site, significantly reducing development timelines and costs. The move aligns with growing European demand for locally processed critical minerals, driven by policy targets to increase regional supply chain resilience.
