ABOUT US
Our vision is to become the leading supplier of nano-based materials and solutions for thermal management applications contributing to a sustainable society.
ABOUT US
Smart High Tech is a company focusing on producing new heat-dissipating materials reinforced with graphene with a focus on cooling of CPUs, GPUs, Chiplets and other heat-intensive electronics devices. This is something that is essential to be able to develop high-performance electronics that are smaller, faster and lighter with more functionality in a sustainable way. We offer high-performance graphene-enhanced materials and associated process know-how. One example of our unique and innovative developments is our graphene-enhanced “Thermal Interface Material”, called TIM, for electronics and power module cooling, which conducts heat efficiently both vertically and horizontally. TIM is found in our GT-TIM® product series, which is available in different versions with different features.
We sell our products to international world-leading electronics intensive companies in BTB sector through partnership with Henkel via its Loctite brand and in BTC business through partnership with Thermal Grizzly via its brand Kryosheet.
VISION
Our vision is to become the world leading supplier of graphene enhanced thermal interface material for electronics cooling and heat dissipation applications.
MISSION
Our mission is to sell volume-based graphene enhanced thermal interface materials with drastically improved thermal performance creating a paradigm shift from using classic thermal interface materials (PCMs, Paste, Gel, Metal etc) into the new class of thermal interface materials enhanced by graphene technology.
OUR COMPANY HISTORY
Smart High Tech was founded by Dr Johan Liu, a professor at Chalmers University of Technology Sweden in 2003. Since the start the company has carried out ground-breaking research which has laid a solid foundation for the development of our products, enabling the company to grow continuously. Innovation has been at the core of the company since the very start and Smart High Tech is therefore also involved in several EU- and national innovation projects. Smart High Tech has also a daughter company: Ruixi New Material High Tech Ltd in Shanghai, China for volume production. In addition, Smart High Tech has its own manufacturing facility for production for graphene-enhanced thermal interface material in Sweden.
In the fall of 2021 Smart High Tech carried out an Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the Spotlight Stock Market. At the same time we issued an emission (worth 22 MSEK, equivalent to around 2,2 million Euro) which was used to further strengthen the production facilities in Sweden and expand our sales and marketing team.
In June 2024, Smart High Tech raised additional 90 MSEK to scale up production for further international expansion.
In Dec 2024, Smart High Tech raised another 110 MSEK for additional expansion with the goal becoming the qualified large volume supplier in shortest time to come.
