About the company
Grapheno, LLC, a small business headquartered in Shreveport, Louisiana, develops biomedical and aerospace materials technology for the Department of Defense and Defense Health Agency as a prime contractor under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program. All three recent awards are firm fixed-price SBIR contracts under Total Small Business set-asides; the vendor operates exclusively as a prime and has not subcontracted work in the source data.
Grapheno's capability portfolio centers on advanced materials and medical device development. The vendor's active work spans sustained-release vaccine delivery systems and in-situ aerospace repair technology. On the biomedical side, the Defense Health Agency awarded Grapheno a $249,978.59 Phase I SBIR contract on January 27, 2025 (completing August 26, 2025) and a $1.3 million Phase II SBIR definitive contract on April 8, 2026 (completing August 7, 2028) for HaloVax, a clay nanotube-based transdermal patch designed to deliver sustained-release HIV vaccine formulation. On the aerospace side, the Air Force Research Laboratory awarded Grapheno a direct Phase II SBIR contract valued at $1.8 million on August 26, 2024 (completing November 26, 2026) for an electrochemical deposition-based in-situ repair system for stress-induced fatigue cracks in aircraft metal structures.

SBA capabilities narrative
LA NPDT is working on a new project that deals with the development of a low-cost alternative to precious metals-based EMI shielding coatings. Their product, Grapheno, is based on graphene, which the team produces via a proprietary technology.
Grapheno is a compound of graphene and paint that functions as a conductive coating. Grapheno offers protection to sensitive electronics by absorbing unnecessary and harmful electromagnetic interferences (EMI). Electromagnetic interferences, whether man-made or natural, can cause damage to electronics, resulting in loss of data and interruption of the vital means of communication. The latest electronic products are protected by various methods, one of them being conductive coatings. The products that are currently used are expensive since they are based on precious metals like nickel, copper, and silver. On the other hand, Grapheno LLC provides a low-cost alternative by using graphene mass produced via a proprietary technology.
