Creel iT

What Creel iT does

Creel iT, the English brand of Suzhou Hi-Tech Technology Co., Ltd. (苏州高泰技术股份有限公司), is a privately held Chinese functional new materials manufacturer founded in March 2006 and headquartered in the Suzhou Industrial Park, Jiangsu Province, China. The company develops, manufactures, and sells composite functional materials, composite functional devices, and electronic-grade traceability products, organized under five proprietary sub-brands: PolyfilmTM (high-performance films and adhesive tapes), PolyplateTM (thermal management solutions including thermal interface materials, thermal spreaders, and microcellular polymer foams), ShielditeTM (EMI/EMC shielding and grounding products including conductive tapes, gaskets, and wave absorbers), Polyfoam (PU, acrylic, waterproof, light-blocking, acoustic, and silicone foams), and PolyIDTM (label materials including polyester, polyimide, laser-markable, and security labels). The portfolio spans 30+ documented SKUs, including liquid metal thermal interface grease (TCG-60M), aerogel-based nano insulation films at 0.02 W/m·K (TIF series), and electrically conductive silicone thermal pads at 15-20 W/m·K (TSP-G series).

Creel iT provides an integrated full-process service model covering material design synthesis, functional testing, precision coating, precision die-cutting, and automated application design, positioning itself as a one-stop functional materials partner rather than a single-product vendor. Its customer base spans two primary verticals: Consumer Electronics (smartphones, laptops, tablets, and wearables requiring bonding, EMI shielding, thermal management, and cushioning solutions) and New Energy (electric vehicle batteries, electronic control units, motors, lighting, and solar applications requiring thermal management, EMI shielding, fire retardancy, and cushioning). The company maintains RBA 8.0.1 VAP certification and a 2025 Trade Control Compliance Policy consistent with supplying multinational electronics OEM supply chains.

The company's revenue model is not publicly disclosed, and no pricing, ARR, customer count, or headcount data are available. The firmographic block in the source data describing Creel iT as a US-based marketing-intelligence platform with 11-50 employees (Irvine, founded 2016) is inconsistent with the company's own first-party website (creelit.com) and the full body of corroborating data, and is disregarded as a data-quality artifact. Creel iT is privately held with no disclosed external investors beyond a single $1.85M funding round recorded in February 2019.
