Lyten develops and manufactures supermaterials based on its proprietary 3D Graphene™ platform, which captures carbon from methane and produces clean hydrogen. Its product line includes lithium‑sulfur batteries (LytCell™), graphene‑infused polyethylene composites (LytR™), and concrete additives that deliver higher energy density, reduced weight, and lower carbon footprints for EVs, aerospace, construction, and plastics manufacturers.

Problem
Industries such as electric vehicles, construction, and plastics rely on heavy, low‑energy‑density materials that generate high carbon emissions and depend on scarce resources like nickel and cobalt. Existing battery chemistries, polymer composites, and concrete additives lack the combination of lightweight strength and sustainability needed to meet decarbonization targets.
Solution
Lyten leverages its proprietary Lyten 3D Graphene™ platform—produced by permanently capturing carbon from methane and generating clean‑burning hydrogen—to create high‑performance, low‑weight materials across multiple sectors. The company offers lithium‑sulfur (LytCell™) batteries that deliver higher energy density while eliminating nickel and cobalt, a graphene‑infused polyethylene composite (LytR™) that cuts polymer weight by up to 50 % without sacrificing strength, and concrete admixtures and structural adhesives that enhance durability and reduce carbon footprints. These supermaterials are manufactured locally in a San Jose pilot plant, enabling faster supply chains and lower logistics emissions. By integrating advanced graphene technology, Lyten provides customers with products that improve efficiency, reduce material usage, and support sustainability goals.
Target Audience
Primary customers are manufacturers of electric vehicles, aerospace and defense equipment, construction firms, and plastic product companies seeking lighter, stronger, and lower‑carbon materials.
