Superior Graphite’s Post

The Superior Graphite Kentucky Complex celebrated the retirement of Nelson Coker. Nelson joined the organization on August 10, 1984, as Utility (today’s Production Operator). He held various positions in production before transitioning to Maintenance Mechanic in 2004. He has been a committed member of our team through his 40+ years. We wish him well as he enjoys his “no schedule” retirement days!

Exciting Developments at Paducah-McCracken County Riverport Authority! 🚢 Superior Graphite is thrilled to support the ongoing revitalization of the Paducah-McCracken County Riverport Authority’s bulk yard. This project, backed by the Port Infrastructure Development Project (PIDP) grant from the U.S. Maritime Administration, marks a significant step forward in enhancing the port's infrastructure and capabilities. We have a longstanding 40+ year partnership with the Paducah Riverport, and this refurbishment ensures that our collaboration will continue to thrive. The new canvas fabric tension roofs on the storage domes, constructed by Bulk Storage Inc., are not only efficient and durable but also support our journey toward becoming a leading Active Anode Material producer for the Li-ion battery market. At Superior Graphite, we are deeply committed to supporting local initiatives and making tangible impacts in our community. This project exemplifies our dedication to fostering sustainable growth and innovation within the region. A special shoutout to Tim Cahill and his team for their dedication and hard work. Their efforts have been instrumental in making this project a success. #SuperiorGraphite #Logistics #Infrastructure #LiIonBattery #Sustainability #PortDevelopment #Partnerships #CommunitySupport

The Euro 7 legislation will soon be implemented in the European Union and will limit the particle emissions from vehicles' brake systems. Improving brake pad formulations with friction materials that contribute to pad wear reduction is one of the approaches to minimize brake particle emissions.   Superior Graphite’s FormulaFX provides specialty solutions tailored to reduce brake pad wear and minimize the brake particulate emissions.
