The Gloucestershire engineering firm, which makes products using the nanomaterial for the automotive, clothing, biomedical and aerospace sectors, reported a widened £3.4m pre-tax loss in its half-year results last month.

Earlier this year the AIM-listed firm, which has previously secured partnerships with fashion label Superdry and kit suppliers of the England rugby team Umbro, said the tough economic conditions had delayed the commercialisation of its products.
