Graphite One Secures Defense Contract for Alaskan Carbon Materials

The Defense Logistics Agency has awarded Graphite One a contract to test carbon-based composites from its Graphite Creek deposit in Alaska. The project focuses on developing high-temperature thermal management systems, aiming to bolster domestic supply chains for materials critical to national defense and military logistics infrastructure.

Graphite One Secures Defense Contract for Alaskan Carbon Materials

This demonstration program marks the third time since 2023 that the company has received a logistics award from the Pentagon. To execute the research, Graphite One is partnering with the Idaho National Laboratory, a facility under the Department of Energy known for its specialization in national security and advanced materials science.

By leveraging raw materials sourced directly from the Alaskan site, the initiative seeks to move beyond experimental testing toward establishing a resilient domestic industrial base. The project specifically addresses the urgent requirement for reliable high-temperature systems in defense applications, ensuring that the global supply chain managed by the Defense Logistics Agency remains protected from external disruptions.
