AB  - n recent years, graphene has found its use in numerous industrial applications due to its unique properties. While its impermeable and conductive nature can replace currently used anticorrosive toxic pigments in coating systems, due to its large strength to weight ratio, graphene can be an important component as a next-generation additive for automotive,  aerospace  &  construction  applications.  The  current  bottlenecks  in  using graphene  & graphene  oxide and other 2D materials are the availability of cost-effective, high-quality materials and their effective incorporation (functionalisation and dispersion)into the product matrices. On overcoming these factors, graphene may attract significant demands in terms of volume consumption. Graphene can be produced on industrial scales and cost-effective top-down routes such as chemical, electro chemical, and/or high-pressure  mechanical  exfoliation. Graphene  depending on end applications can  be chemically  tuned and modified via  functionalisation so  that  easy  incorporation  into  product  matrices  is possible.   This  paper  discusses different  production  methods  and  their  impact  on  the  quality  of  graphene  produced  in  terms  of  energy  input. Graphene with an average  thickness  below  five  layers  were  produced  by  both  methods with  varied  defects. However, a higher yield of graphene with a lower number of layers was produced by the high-pressure exfoliation route.
