What IBIH does
IBIH Advanced Materials Co., Ltd. is a Chinese high-tech manufacturer specializing in aerogel-based thermal management and energy efficiency materials, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Cangzhou, Hebei Province. The company's core technology is a proprietary ethanol supercritical drying (EtOH-SCD) process deployed on a horizontal industrial platform, enabling large-scale production of silica aerogels with porosity of 85–99%, thermal conductivity as low as 0.016 W/(m·K), visible light transmittance above 80%, and structural stability across -196°C to 1000°C. IBIH was the first company globally to achieve mass production and stable supply of fire-resistant aerogel insulation pads for electric-vehicle battery thermal runaway protection, and it has supplied thermal protection for more than 6 million EVs to date.
IBIH operates two Chinese manufacturing bases (Cangzhou in Hebei and Xuchang in Henan, the latter IATF 16949-certified for automotive supply) and opened a Slovakia Trnava production facility in June 2026 to localize supply for European OEMs. The product portfolio spans 12+ SKUs organized into Thermal Management Solutions for Batteries (aerogel pads, blankets, ceramic tapes, nano panels, coatings, PI aerogel films) and Energy Efficiency Solutions for Properties (high-temperature blankets, cryogenic blankets, granules, coatings, building panels). Revenue is generated through direct enterprise sales, organized into a New Energy Field Sales Department serving EV and battery OEMs and an Industrial Heat Preservation Sales Department serving petrochemical, power, and LNG clients, with a separate marketing channel for smaller accounts.
FY2024 revenue exceeded RMB 600 million, representing approximately 20x growth over five years, and the company claims over 40% domestic share in China's power-battery thermal protection segment along with "dual global leadership" in production capacity and market share for aerogel battery insulation pads. The company holds 134 authorized patents covering the full aerogel value chain and is recognized as a National Key "Little Giant" Enterprise by China's MIIT, with state-backed shareholders including Sinoma/CNBM and the National Venture Capital Fund.
