(“PyroGenesis” or the “Company”) (TSX: PYR) (OTCQX: PYRGF) (FRA: 8PY1), a leader in ultra-high temperature processes and engineering innovation, and a plasma-based technology provider to heavy industry &amp; defense, today announces a second contract for US$73,700 (CA$102,132) with a U.S.-based original equipment manufacturer (the “Client”) serving the additive manufacturing industry. PyroGenesis will provide coarse cut titanium powder produced by PyroGenesis’ NexGen™ plasma atomization process. The Company announced an initial order with this Client last week [press release dated Aug. 24, 2026]. The Client’s name and material volume will remain confidential for competitive reasons. The powder for this order has been produced and is expected to be shipped over the coming days. As previously announced, the Client is a US-based technology provider to the additive manufacturing industry. Today’s contract marks the second commercial order with this Client. As with the previous order, the order announced today is for Ti64 “coarse” cut titanium metal powder with a particle size of 45-150µm [microns] for use in directed energy deposition (DED), a technology widely used in the aerospace and defense industries to print or repair structural metal parts and components. Laser-based DED can be used to build large-scale aerospace components that span up to five meters, among the largest items printable in metal 3D format. “Although we had anticipated additional orders with this client in the course of the year, we did not anticipate the speed with which this second order was placed. I believe this is particularly noteworthy as it indicates a growing demand for titanium powder at the quality and price level produced by PyroGenesis, while also reflecting the strength of our customer response and support,” said Mr. P. Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis. “Developing repeat customers is a key part of the six-point plan which we announced in our April 29, 2026, press release, to position the Additive Manufacturing Division for the next level of growth anticipated to be several times larger than that which is currently in place. Combined with last week’s announcement [dated Aug. 26, 2026] of a second titanium powder order with a major DOD and NASA-supported U.S. applied research facility client, today’s announcement of a separate such order from a serious client moves us closer to reaching the critical mass required to execute on our strategic goal.” PyroGenesis’ Technology Development for Additive Manufacturing PyroGenesis is the inventor of the plasma atomization process and in fact coined the term “plasma atomization” in its original patent. Plasma atomization is often considered the gold standard process for the production of metal powder for additive manufacturing, also referred to as metal 3D printing. After years of R&amp;D, PyroGenesis redesigned its plasma atomization technology and launched NexGen™ to re-enter the powder production market by targeting higher quality and yields, at lower operating costs. The Company has since taken a deliberate approach to commercialization, progressing from gram-scale customer samples to 100-kg orders, and its first tonne-scale order in May 2023. PyroGenesis produces titanium powders in particle size distribution ranges across three “cuts”: <ul type="disc"><li>Fine Cut, in particle sizes between 15–63 µm for use in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF).</li><li>Coarse Cut, in particle sizes between 45–106 µm for use in electron beam melting (EBM) and 45–150 µm in directed energy deposition (DED).</li><li>Off-Cuts, in particle sizes not currently used by the existing range of commercial printers, but which offers a high-quality feedstock for use in the production of high-quality metal alloys.</li></ul> <img alt="PyroGenesis titanium metal powder as produced by its NexGen™ plasma atomization system." height="361" src="https://ml.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/6c8a5381-e76f-4389-9929-151beb1f2f45/powders.jpg" width="600" data-dpi="96" data-caption="PyroGenesis titanium metal powder as produced by its NexGen™ plasma atomization system." data-filename="powders.jpg" /> Image: PyroGenesis’ titanium metal powder as produced by its NexGen™ plasma atomization system. INDUSTRY AND MARKET CONTEXT <ul type="disc"><li>The global 3D printing market specific to titanium powder is expected to increase from $214 million in 2023 to $1.4 billion by 2032.1</li><li>Titanium is classified as a critical mineral by both Canada2 and the U.S.3</li><li>Titanium is used by multiple industries, including space, aerospace, defense, consumer electronics, medical, hydrogen, and electric vehicles, due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.</li></ul> About PyroGenesis Inc.
