VANCOUVER – HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. has named Randall Zajac as Director of Business Development for Resins and Composites.
“We are pleased to welcome Randall to HydroGraph,” said Stuart Jara, CEO, HydroGraph. “As we develop additional applications for the graphene market leveraging the research grant we were recently awarded, Randall will be an integral player in increasing customer interest in new sales channels. Interest in our fractal and reactive graphene continues to grow and we’ve expanded the capacity of our pre-commercial scale production units to support this. His appointment is just another step toward full scale commercialization.”
In this role, Zajac will focus on the demand for resins and composites. Both markets are showing increases, with the global plastic resins market projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5 per cent from 2022 to 2030, while the global composites market size is expected to reach $126 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 7.5 per cent from 2021 to 2026.
Zajac joins HydroGraph with a background in composites with roles starting in R&D and growing to process engineering and ultimately business development.
He has held roles in research and development, new application development, customer service, process engineering, and manufacturing engineering. Zajac accomplishments include process development at TPI in Newton, IA for wind turbine production as well as working with the Advanced Composite Research Center at Lamborghini to help educate the team on designing parts, tooling, materials, and processes for SMC composite components.
“My background makes me specifically qualified for this role and I’m excited about the opportunity at HydroGraph,” said Zajac. “With my depth of experience in advanced composites materials, I’m equipped with the technical means and unique perspective on the materials industry. I’m looking forward to utilizing my knowledge of business and engineering in working with the leadership team to elevate HydroGraph in the commercial market.”
