Expansion of Collaboration with Miguel Caballero MC Armor
Directa Plus PLC, a leading producer and supplier of graphene
nanoplatelets based products for use in consumer and industrial
markets, is pleased to announce a significant expansion of its
collaboration with CIA Miguel Caballero, a prominent manufacturer
of bulletproof vests and personal protective equipment (PPE).
Directa Plus began collaborating with CIA Miguel Caballero in
July 2022, supplying advanced graphene-based textile solutions that
enhance the performance and comfort of bulletproof vests. The
collaboration is entering a new phase of growth, solidifying the
Group's position as a partner in CIA Miguel Caballero's product
innovations.
Key highlights of the strengthened partnership include:
-- Enhanced Vest Technology: in addition to supplying the lining for bulletproof vests Directa
Plus will also introduce a cutting-edge thermal interlayer. This innovative interlayer, based
on graphene technology, will replace the phase change materials technology, ensuring superior
thermal regulation and comfort for the wearer.
-- Diversification into PPE for Motorbike Riders: a new segment in this partnership, delivering
textile technologies will now extend their reach into the business lines of CIA Miguel Caballero,
particularly in the motorbike personal protective equipment (PPE) segment. This expansion
showcases the versatility of graphene-based textiles and their applicability in enhancing
safety and comfort for motorbike riders.
Commenting on this Giulio Cesareo, founder & CEO of Directa
Plus, said: "We are thrilled to strengthen our partnership with
Miguel Caballero, a leader in the protective wear industry, and to
be part of their journey towards creating safer, more advanced
protective solutions for individuals in high-risk professions. This
collaboration expansion reflects our commitment to driving
innovation and sustainability in the textile industry and we look
forward to working closely with CIA Miguel Caballero to provide
even more innovative solutions to their customers."

Notes to Editors
Directa Plus (www.directa-plus.com) is one of the largest
producers and suppliers of graphene-based products for use in
consumer and industrial markets. The Company's graphene
manufacturing capability uses proprietary patented technology based
on a plasma super expansion process. Starting from natural
graphite, each step of Directa Plus' production process -
expansion, exfoliation and drying - creates graphene-based
materials and hybrid graphene materials ready for a variety of uses
and available in various forms such as powder, liquid and
paste.
This proprietary production process uses a physical process,
rather than a chemical process, to process graphite into pristine
graphene nanoplatelets, which enables Directa Plus to offer a
sustainable, non-toxic product, without unwanted by-products.
Directa Plus' products are made of hybrid graphene materials and
graphene nano-platelets. The products (marketed as G+(R)) have
multiple applications due to its properties. These G+(R) products
can be categorised into various families, with different products
being suitable for specific practical applications.
Directa Plus was established in 2005 and is based in Lomazzo
(Como, Italy) and has been listed on the AIM market of the London
Stock Exchange since May 2016. Directa Plus holds the Green Economy
Mark from London Stock Exchange which recognises companies that
contribute to the global green economy.
