A New Platform for
High-Temperature
Materials Processing

Hexoris is developing a compact, continuous high-temperature reactor platform — starting with battery-grade synthetic graphite, with a broader roadmap across energy- and capital-intensive advanced materials processes.

The Problem

Batch High-Temperature
Processing Is Broken

Across advanced materials — synthetic graphite, silicon carbide, boron carbide, and more — the industry relies on large batch furnaces that have changed little in decades. The result: enormous waste heat losses, oversized capital installations, and limited ability to scale with demand.

Energy Intensive

Batch furnaces heat large volumes over extended cycles, generating enormous waste heat losses. This makes them among the most electricity-intensive processes in advanced materials production.

Capital Intensive

Large batch installations require significant upfront capital to build and commission — raising the barrier to entry and slowing deployment at the pace demanded by rapidly growing markets.

Waste Heat at Scale

Long cycle times mean vast amounts of energy are lost to the environment rather than used to drive the reaction. Continuous processing fundamentally changes this dynamic.

A National Security Gap

Advanced materials such as synthetic graphite, silicon carbide, and boron carbide are critical inputs for defence systems, aerospace, and strategic infrastructure. Canada and its allies currently depend heavily on foreign supply chains for these materials — an exposure that domestic production technology directly addresses.

Our Solution

A Better Way to Process
High-Temperature Materials

Hexoris is developing a compact, continuous high-temperature reactor platform. By rethinking the heating mechanism and process flow, we are targeting substantial improvements in energy efficiency and capital intensity compared to existing batch technology — with synthetic graphite as our first commercial target.

Continuous Flow Design

Eliminates batch cycle overhead, reducing manual handling and improving throughput and safety.

Electric Arc Heating

Reaches extreme temperatures with dramatically less waste heat than conventional resistance furnaces.

Simpler, Compact Reactor

A simpler design with a smaller physical footprint targets lower capital requirements to build and operate.

Broad Platform Potential

The core reactor architecture is being developed with a roadmap to address multiple high-temperature advanced materials markets.
