SHIN-A T&C CO., LTD. ((주)신아티앤씨) is a privately held Korean specialty chemical materials manufacturer founded in 2006 and headquartered in the Gasan Digital Complex, Seoul. The company develops and supplies high-function specialty epoxy resins, curing agents, UV curing resins, polythiols, urethane and epoxy acrylates, CNT/graphene dispersions, and heat dissipation materials to electronic material companies, battery manufacturers, display producers, and automotive suppliers worldwide. Operations are organized into three divisions: Advanced Materials (Epoxy), Battery & Display (Acryl), and Automotive Materials, each backed by a dedicated sales team and a product catalog of more than 100 specialty grades including flame retardant, low Dk/Df, high Tg, crystalline, waterborne, and composite resin systems.

The company's underlying technology rests on proprietary epoxy and hardener synthesis, UV curing resin formulation, carbon nanomaterial dispersion, and heat dissipation material development. It holds 119 registered patents across Korea, the USA, Japan, Taiwan, and China, and maintains ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certifications alongside Korean government designations (INNO-BIZ, MAIN-BIZ, Parts & Materials Specialist, Global Strong Enterprise 1000+). R&D accounts for approximately 47% of its 76-person workforce as of 2025. In 2021 the company received Korea's $70 million Export Tower Award, and its Metal Circuit Carrier Laminate (MCCL) product line targets automotive electrification with thermal conductivity of 2.5-3.2 W/m·K and UL-94 V-0 flame retardancy.

SHIN-A T&C operates a B2B direct sales model with no disclosed public pricing, quote-based contracts, and global distribution through its three sales divisions. It markets through a trilingual (Korean/English/Chinese) corporate website with a multi-step product search and customer inquiry system, and participates in Korean job portals for recruitment. The company is led by founder-CEO Choi Chun-gu (최춘구), has no parent company or subsidiaries, and has not pursued an IPO; the only disclosed external investment was a 2012 capital increase to KRW 315 million with backing from MVP Investment Association, AZU IB Investment Association, and the Industrial Bank of Korea.
