Zentek Ltd. (“Zentek” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ZTEK; TSX-V: ZEN), an intellectual property development and commercialization company, has signed an agreement (the “Agreement”) with Arka BRENStech Pvt Ltd (“BRENStech”), a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of India (India), pursuant to which BRENStech will act as a local partner to Zentek as it seeks to develop business opportunities in India.

Zentek has been working with Mr. Gaurav Kumar, a director of BRENStech, over the last year to understand the Indian market. BRENStech’s primary focus under the terms of the Agreement will be to establish sales and distribution opportunities for Zentek masks and HVAC filters and potentially other Zentek products as they become available, however BRENStech will also provide services under the Agreement to connect Zentek with university research facilities, assist with the navigation of applicable regulatory regimes, and to source potential manufacturing partners for Zentek’s business opportunities in India and globally.

To date, BRENStech has performed market research of the Indian market for surgical masks where samples were trialed in hospitals and clinics and has reported positive feedback and Zentek has shipped 2.1 million masks to support initial sales efforts. The personal protective equipment (“PPE”) market in India is valued at $1 billion USD and India is currently the world’s second largest manufacturer of PPE according to the Economic Times, India.
“We see significant opportunities in India, both as a market for Zentek’s innovative products and as a potential manufacturing hub for Zentek going forward” said Greg Fenton, CEO of Zentek. “Having a strong partner in India with business, research and development, regulatory and political connections will be invaluable as we seek to grow our opportunities both in India and globally.”

Currently, India is the world’s 5th largest economy and expected to grow to the 3rd largest by 2030 according to the International Monetary Fund. India is projected to host over 1.5 billion people by 2030 making it the highest population in the world. Currently the estimated middle class has approximately 350 million people and targeted to reach 600 million by 2030. India offers significant opportunities for Zentek and its partners: Sales and distribution, strong manufacturing infrastructure along with world-class research and development.
