Published

on

Kluck’s Cloud-Native Restaurant Platform and Epson Liner-Free Thermal Label Printers Simplify Order Fulfillment and Eliminate Guest Pickup Confusion for Central Park St. Pete Food Hall

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. , Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Epson today announced that Central Park St. Pete Food Hall, a multi-concept dining destination in St. Petersburg, Florida, has found success with Epson point-of-sale (POS) labeling and printing solutions for its innovative multi-vendor ordering and fulfillment model. Leveraging OmniLink® TM-L100 liner-free thermal label printers across every vendor stall and OmniLink mSeries receipt printers at bars and expo stations, Central Park St. Pete provides guests with a frictionless pickup experience while simplifying operations for food hall operators and vendors alike.

Epson OmniLink TM-L100 linerfree label printers help Central Park St. Pete create frictionless guest pickup experiences.

“Central Park St. Pete was built around the idea that guests should be able to explore multiple food concepts as easily as they would a single restaurant,” said Natalia Levey, co-owner, Central Park St. Pete. “Each kitchen runs its own menu and hours, but whether guests order at a kiosk or online for takeout, it feels like one cohesive experience. Epson’s printing and labeling technology helps streamline workflow and the customer experience by making pickup intuitive and stress-free, allowing guests to focus on enjoying the food rather than figuring out which order belongs to them.”

Powered by Kluck, a cloud-native restaurant technology platform, Central Park St. Pete enables guests to order from multiple food concepts in a single transaction through kiosks or QR codes. As orders are prepared independently by individual vendors, Kluck allows the Food Hall to ensure every item is clearly identified and delivered to the correct guest, critical to maintaining a seamless customer experience.

“Getting orders to the kitchen isn’t the challenge, it’s everything that happens afterward,” said Cary Hicks, co-founder, Kluck. “Food halls create a unique operational challenge because a single transaction needs to be routed to multiple kitchens simultaneously. We designed our cloud-native platform to orchestrate that complexity behind the scenes. Epson’s solutions allow us to automatically generate labels at the correct vendor location in real time, ensuring every item is clearly identified and ready for pickup without adding extra steps for staff.”

Central Park St. Pete selected Epson as its exclusive printer provider, standardizing on a single platform across the facility to streamline deployment, support and day-to-day operations. Epson’s ePOS™ technology enables Kluck’s cloud-native platform to route print jobs across the network, ensuring labels are automatically generated at the appropriate vendor location.

“As hospitality concepts evolve, operators need technology that can support flexible and connected service models,” said Ian Livesay, product manager, Epson America, Inc. “Whether it’s a traditional restaurant or a multi-vendor venue, accurate labeling and reliable networked printing play an important role in creating efficient workflows and positive guest experiences. We’re proud to help innovative operators like Central Park St. Pete deliver both.”

Today, guests can place a single order across multiple vendors, pay once and easily collect their food from different stalls throughout the venue – a seamless experience from checkout to pickup.

“Reliable printing is one of those things nobody notices until it fails, and Epson’s printers have been extremely reliable for us,” said Hicks. “The TM-L100 label printers integrate seamlessly with our platform, printing each guest’s name directly on every order so guests always know exactly which food is theirs. That simple detail is what makes pickup across multiple vendors feel effortless. Central Park St. Pete proved the model, and we’re now brining the same Kluck and Epson solution to food halls and multi-vendor operators across the country.”

Graphene Market Set to Reach US$ 3.94 Billion by 2031 as Demand for Next-Generation Materials Accelerates

Published

on

By

SHERIDAN, Wyo., Oct. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The global graphene market is valued at USD 970 million in 2026 and is projected to reach USD 3.94 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 32.4% over the forecast period (2026–2031), according to a new study by Wissen Research.

Graphene is a two-dimensional carbon nanomaterial made of a single layer of carbon atoms in a hexagonal lattice, with high electrical and thermal conductivity, mechanical strength, flexibility, and a large surface area. The report describes a market moving from research-led development toward targeted industrial commercialization, as suppliers put scalable manufacturing and customer-specific integration ahead of laboratory performance alone.

The evidence is in the production numbers. Black Swan Graphene more than tripled its annual graphene nanoplatelet capacity in the U.K. in March 2026, from 40 tonnes to more than 140 tonnes, and NanoXplore reports annual graphene powder capacity of up to 5,000 metric tonnes. The report is careful, though: capacity expansion alone does not establish market growth or utilization. Consistent quality, competitive costs, standardized characterization, and proven performance in real products will decide how quickly demand follows.

Production Is Scaling Up: Graphene Suppliers Move from Small Batches to Industrial Capacity

The industry is shifting from small-batch production toward industrial-scale manufacturing, and the report points to measurable capacity. Black Swan’s upgraded U.K. facility uses high-shear liquid-phase exfoliation at industrial flow rates of up to 22,000 litres per hour, and the company links the expansion to commercial agreements, partnerships, and a growing sales pipeline across polymers, concrete, and advanced composites. In July 2026, Graphene Manufacturing Group started up its second-generation graphene production plant in Australia, designed to produce up to 10 tonnes a year after optimization, with capital costs tracking at or below its planned AUD 2.3 million. Xiamen Knano Graphene Technology in China reports annual graphene powder capacity of at least 500 tonnes, and in South Korea, Graphene Square opened a facility in Pohang in November 2025 with annual capacity of 300,000 square metres of chemical vapour deposition (CVD) graphene films.

The supply chain starts with graphite. China accounted for an estimated 82% of global natural graphite production in 2025, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, which shows how central that upstream position is to graphite-derived graphene nanoplatelets, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene oxide. For customers, the report notes, greater manufacturing capacity can improve supply reliability and support qualification of graphene-enhanced products for larger-volume industrial applications.

Where Graphene Is Being Qualified: Cooling, Composites, Cement, and Defence

The latest commercial news shows graphene moving into specific, application-led uses. Haydale advanced its graphene-enabled thermal transfer fluid for data-centre cooling, which showed approximately 28% higher thermal conductivity than a baseline inhibited glycol coolant. Commercial agreements with Liquitherm and Levidian have established a route to market, with discussions underway with data-centre operators representing approximately 200 MW of capacity. That fits a driver the report highlights: rising heat generation in compact electronic devices is accelerating demand for thermal management materials.

In composites, First Graphene signed a three-year agreement with Aeropreg to develop graphene-enhanced carbon-fibre prepreg for aerospace, automotive, marine, and sporting-goods applications. In construction, it signed a memorandum of understanding with China’s The Sixth Element to distribute its PureGRAPH CEM graphene-based cement additive in China’s cement and concrete industry. And in defence, NanoXplore, together with its subsidiary VoltaXplore, qualified as a supplier under Canada’s Defence Drone Initiative Marketplace, covering graphene-enhanced composite components and lithium-ion battery cells.

Batteries: Promising Results, Careful Language

Energy storage is an important development area, with graphene explored in battery electrodes and supercapacitors. In April 2026, Graphene Manufacturing Group, working with the University of Queensland and supported by Rio Tinto, reported progress on its graphene aluminium-ion battery technology, saying its battery cells had doubled their energy density while retaining a six-minute charging capability.

The report treats that result as technology-development progress, not evidence of widespread commercial deployment. The commercial opportunity depends on independent validation, cycle life, manufacturing scalability, production economics, and customer qualification, and adoption timelines will vary by chemistry and end use. Successful commercialization could expand graphene consumption beyond its established uses in composites and coatings.

What’s Fueling Growth in the Graphene Market

Higher-capacity batteries: Demand for high-capacity lithium-ion batteries is driving graphene adoption in silicon-based anodes to improve electrical conductivity, manage electrode expansion, and enhance cycle life.Lightweight, high-strength materials: Automotive and aerospace manufacturing are encouraging graphene integration into composites to improve mechanical performance and component durability.Corrosion protection: Rising corrosion-related maintenance costs across industrial infrastructure are driving interest in graphene-enhanced protective coatings that can improve barrier performance and extend equipment service life.Heat in compact electronics: Growing heat generation in small devices is accelerating demand for graphene-based thermal management materials that help dissipate heat.Fast energy delivery: Requirements for rapid energy delivery and frequent charging cycles are supporting graphene in supercapacitors used in regenerative braking, power backup, and industrial energy management.Scalable production: Advances in scalable graphene production are improving material consistency and manufacturing efficiency, helping suppliers meet industrial qualification requirements.

Challenges Facing the Graphene Market

The central difficulty is that not all graphene is the same. Grades differ in layer count, lateral dimensions, defect density, purity, and surface chemistry, which makes direct comparisons between suppliers hard. Graphene that performs well in laboratory electrical tests may not deliver equivalent benefits once it is mixed into a polymer or coating, and manufacturers must find suitable loading levels and processing conditions for each application without compromising other material properties. Scale-up adds challenges in yield, quality control, and production economics, all of which can lengthen customer qualification cycles and delay adoption, particularly in highly regulated or performance-critical applications.

Standards are starting to help. In July 2025, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published ISO/TS 9651:2025, a classification framework for graphene-related two-dimensional materials that covers relevant characteristics, measurement methods, and technical data-sheet guidance. A 2026 review in New Carbon Materials also examined standardized characterization, including layer count, defects, functional groups, elemental composition, sheet resistance, and carrier mobility. Producers that can provide reliable characterization data and consistent batch specifications can improve buyer confidence and shorten qualification.

Recent Strategic Developments in the Graphene Market

In October 2026, First Graphene Limited of Australia signed a three-year development and commercialization agreement with Aeropreg to develop graphene-enhanced carbon-fibre prepreg. The collaboration combines PureGRAPH additives with Aeropreg’s composite manufacturing capabilities, targeting aerospace, automotive, marine, and sporting-goods applications through established sales channels.

In September 2026, NanoXplore Inc. of Canada qualified, alongside its subsidiary VoltaXplore, as a supplier under Canada’s Defence Drone Initiative Marketplace. The qualification covers graphene-enhanced composite components and lithium-ion battery cells, creating opportunities to supply lightweight structural materials and advanced energy-storage technologies for defence drones and autonomous systems.

In September 2026, Haydale plc of the U.K. advanced its graphene-enabled Super-Efficient Thermal Transfer Fluid (SETTF) for data-centre cooling, demonstrating approximately 28% higher thermal conductivity than baseline inhibited glycol coolant. Commercial agreements with Liquitherm and Levidian established a route to market, with discussions underway with data-centre operators representing approximately 200 MW of capacity.

In July 2026, First Graphene Limited signed a memorandum of understanding with China’s The Sixth Element to distribute its PureGRAPH CEM graphene-based cement additive. The agreement targets China’s cement and concrete industry, with potential local manufacturing through a future joint venture or licensing arrangement linked to sales milestones.

Four announcements, four different end markets: composites, defence drones, data-centre cooling, and cement.
