Creative Trading Co.

Creative Technology Co., Ltd. is a Japanese pioneer in electrostatic chuck (ESC) technology, founded in 1985. The company began with the development of fine ceramics processing technology for brittle materials and successfully expanded into the development of electrostatic chucks for semiconductor manufacturing equipment in the 1990s. In the early 2000s, the company launched an electrostatic chuck regeneration business, building relationships with customers worldwide and establishing itself as a leader in integrated electrostatic technology.

The company specializes in 'bonding technology' — the science of making objects adhere to one another using electrostatic force. Their product and service portfolio covers electrostatic chucks for handling a wide variety of materials including silicon wafers, glass/quartz, metal mesh and foil, fabric, resin film, dust/particles, and paper. They also offer supporting equipment such as adsorption monitor units, DC power supplies for electrostatic chuck control, electrostatic adsorption carriers, and gripping/anti-slip pads (IonPad), as well as precision machining services for high-melting-point metals, resins, and ceramics.

Building on their industrial expertise, Creative Technology has also launched 'ataraina,' a consumer electronics brand that applies electrostatic technology to everyday products including air purifiers, tabletop reflow ovens, and innovative display boards. The company aims to contribute to labor-saving and IoT advancement across diverse industries, with a stated ambition of becoming the world's number-one company in adhesion technology.
