**Zentek Accepting Canadian Commercial Orders for <br>ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters Following Health Canada <br>Regulatory Classification** 

*ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters leverage patented graphene-enhanced media tested in accordance with ASHRAE Standard 52.2, engineered to enhance filtration without increased pressure drop, energy consumption and carbon emissions*

**Guelph, ON - May 6, 2026** - Further to its press release dated February 17, 2026, Zentek Ltd. (TSX-V: ZEN) (Nasdaq: ZTEK) ("Zentek" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received a revised classification by Health Canada's Pesticides Regulatory Directorate ("PRD") that ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters are not subject to regulation under the *Pest Control Products Act*. The product is exempt under section 3(1)(a) of the *Pest Control Products Regulations* on the basis that it operates through a mechanical mode of action. The classification resolves the regulatory matter most recently disclosed in the Company's press release and Management's Discussion and Analysis dated February 17, 2026. The classification is conditional, and any change to the design, use instruction, or marketing of the product could result in a re-assessment by Health Canada.

Based on the classification by Health Canada, Zentek is now accepting commercial orders for ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters in Canada and is seeking to advance additional commercialization pathways, including licensing and the sale of ZenGUARD™-enhanced filter media to participants in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning ("HVAC") supply chain. ZenGUARD™ is the subject of an issued Canadian patent (granted 2022; term to 2041) covering its application to personal protective equipment and HVAC applications.

**A Differentiated Approach to Enhanced Indoor Air**

Conventional approaches to enhanced indoor air typically rely on denser filter media or increased outdoor air exchange. Both impose a meaningful energy cost on the building: denser media increases pressure drop and fan power; greater outdoor air exchange increases heating, cooling, and dehumidification load. In commercial and institutional buildings, HVAC is among the largest single contributors to electrical consumption.

According to publicly available federal data, commercial and institutional buildings account for approximately 13% of Canada's total secondary energy use, with HVAC and ventilation systems representing the largest share of energy consumption within those buildings.<sup>1,2,3,4</sup> As building owners, federal and provincial procurement programs, and institutional portfolios face tightening energy and emissions targets, the practical question is no longer just how to generate more clean energy - it is how to do more with the energy already being used.

ZenGUARD™ is engineered as a coating, not as a single filter product. Applied to filter media using the Company's proprietary graphene-based formulation and process, the coating is designed to add filtration performance to the substrate filter media without an incremental pressure drop penalty. The Company's value proposition is built on the principle that better building performance should not require more energy to achieve.

**Commercial Pathways**

Zentek is pursuing four parallel pathways to bring ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters to Canadian customers:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Direct purchase orders.** Zentek is accepting orders from commercial, institutional, healthcare and industrial customers for ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Federal procurement.** The Company intends to submit final documentation under its Innovative Solutions Canada's Pathway to Commercialization. A successful application could support direct procurement as an exclusive supplier of this type of innovation directly to the Government of Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Licensing.** Zentek is engaging with established participants in the HVAC filter supply chain on potential licensing arrangements for ZenGUARD™.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*•* **Coated filter media.** The Company is exploring the sale of ZenGUARD™-enhanced filter media to filter manufacturers as a separate commercial pathway.

"When I came in on December 1, the classification of ZenGUARD™ Enhanced Air Filters was the largest open regulatory question on the product's Canadian pathway. The team's work since then has been to give Health Canada a complete, science-based picture of how this product actually works," said Mohammed (Moe) Jiwan, Chief Executive Officer of Zentek. "With the classification now in hand, our focus turns to commercial execution. The data that matters to HVAC engineers and building operators is already in the record: independently validated under ASHRAE 52.2, MERV 9 filtration with pressure drop equivalent to uncoated filters at both standard and high airflow conditions. The same air, the same fan power, a better filtration outcome. Commercial and institutional buildings represent a real share of national energy use, and HVAC is the largest single load inside those buildings. We believe our product gives building operators a new tool to support indoor air quality goals without increasing energy consumption. We are accepting purchase orders, advancing the Pathway to Commercialization application, and pursuing licensing and coated-media opportunities with established participants in the HVAC supply chain."
