| Submission declined on 9 July 2025 by Gommeh (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

VINATech Co., Ltd. (비나텍) is a South Korean manufacturer of energy storage and fuel cell components. Its products include supercapacitors, aluminum polymer and hybrid capacitors, and materials for fuel cell stacks.[2] Headquartered in Jeonju, the company supplies components to industrial, automotive, and IoT sectors and is listed on the KOSDAQ under the ticker 126340.KQ.[3]
History
[edit]VINATech was founded in 1999 in Jeonju, South Korea, initially producing supercapacitors for industrial applications.[4] The company later developed materials for fuel cell stacks and hybrid capacitors. In 2020, VINATech transitioned its public listing from KONEX to KOSDAQ to access larger capital markets.[5]
In 2024, the company acquired Enesol Co., Ltd., a Korean producer of aluminum polymer and hybrid capacitors, to expand its product portfolio.[6][7]
Products and Technology
[edit]VINATech's product portfolio is centered on energy storage devices and materials for hydrogen fuel cells. The company manufactures various types of capacitors, including supercapacitors, which are used in applications requiring high power output and rapid energy discharge, such as in automotive and industrial systems.[8] The company also produces aluminum polymer and hybrid capacitors, which are noted for their higher energy density compared to traditional supercapacitors, making them suitable for long-term power backup applications.[9]
The company is a major producer of components for hydrogen fuel cells. Its materials include membrane electrode assemblies (MEA), catalysts, and carbon supports.[2] VINATech has developed a carbon control technology to produce high-durability carbon supports for catalysts, which are crucial for the efficiency and lifespan of a fuel cell.[10] The company completed a new facility in Jeonju in 2021 for the mass production of these fuel cell materials.[11]
Operations
[edit]As of 2024, VINATech employed about 1,100 people and operated manufacturing and R&D facilities in South Korea and Vietnam.[12]
Recognition
[edit]VINATech was included in the 2020 National Industry Awards for R&D and has been covered in Korean business media for its activities in hydrogen and supercapacitor technologies.[13]
