Alexium International Group Limited is an Australian company operated by a team of over a dozen experienced business professionals, engineers, scientists and technical consultants.  Alexium has a presence in Europe and is using its U.S. plant in South Carolina as the operating headquarters.

Alexium was founded to commercialize a reactive surface treatment process originally developed by the U.S. Air Force.  Leveraging approximately $30 million by the US Department of Defense (DoD) to develop the technology, Alexium acquired the technology from the DoD to produce solutions for commercial and military customers.  Alexium has formalized these relationships under exclusive patent licenses and Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA).  Alexium continues to expand its Intellectual Property (IP) portfolio.

Alexium was selected as the winner of the 2009 World Best Technology Showcase and was listed on the Australian Stock exchange (ASX: AJX) in March of 2009.
