Lyten’s Story

Lyten was founded on the vision of using advanced technology from the semiconductor industry to produce abundant clean energy in the form of hydrogen. However, we discovered the ability to produce a revolutionary new material: three-dimensional graphene. This new supermaterial boasts remarkable properties and enormous potential for innovative products and significant decarbonization effects.

Since 2015, our mission has been to take Lyten 3D Graphene™ from the laboratory to commercial scale and apply it across a wide range of industries and applications. We aim to establish a new global industry for “decarbonization-multiplying” materials by sequestering carbon in the form of high-value foundational materials that can be used to reduce the carbon footprint of countless applications in the hardest-to-abate sectors of our economy. By creating superior materials, we aim to offer an economic pathway towards achieving gigaton-scale decarbonization impact.

At Lyten, we believe that a more sustainable future requires commitment, hard work, and innovative solutions. By leveraging our cutting-edge technology and deep technical expertise, we intend to play a leading role in driving significant sustainability efforts and making a meaningful impact on the planet.
