Among the five most recent materials and manufacturing rounds shown (from 2025-09-08 to 2025-11-29), one disclosed deal stands out: Semisic’s $113M venture round on 2025-11-23 is the only disclosed amount in the set, while the other four entries list amounts as undisclosed (Wolai New Materials on 2025-11-29; Tebang New Materials on 2025-10-27; Hongju Technology on 2025-10-07; Hongde New Materials on 2025-09-08). That makes the disclosed picture highly skewed, with the largest disclosed round dwarfing the rest of the disclosed amounts by definition.

Geographically, the list clusters in China, with three companies based in Changzhou (Wolai New Materials, Hongju Technology, both in 2025; plus dates 2025-11-29 and 2025-10-07), and the remaining two split between Guilin (Tebang New Materials, 2025-10-27) and Ningbo (Hongde New Materials, 2025-09-08). Stage labeling is also concentrated: two entries carry “Series A” (Tebang New Materials on 2025-10-27; Hongde New Materials on 2025-09-08), one is “Series B” (Hongju Technology, 2025-10-07), one is “venture” with disclosed size (Semisic, 2025-11-23), and Wolai New Materials is the only row marked “Series Unknown” and undisclosed (2025-11-29).

Frequently asked

Which disclosed round is the largest in this materials/manufacturing slice, and how does it compare to the rest?

Semisic’s $113M venture round (2025-11-23) is the only disclosed amount across the five rows; the other four entries are “undisclosed” (Wolai New Materials 2025-11-29; Tebang New Materials 2025-10-27; Hongju Technology 2025-10-07; Hongde New Materials 2025-09-08).

Are any cities or geographies over-represented among these five recent rounds?

Changzhou appears twice: Wolai New Materials (2025-11-29) and Hongju Technology (2025-10-07) are both listed in Changzhou, China. The remaining three rows are each in a different city: Taiyuan (Semisic), Guilin (Tebang New Materials), and Ningbo (Hongde New Materials).

How tightly are these rounds clustered by date within the most recent window shown?

All five rounds fall between 2025-09-08 and 2025-11-29. Four of the five close in October or November (2025-09-08 is the only September outlier: Hongde New Materials).

What stage mix dominates this set of recent materials/manufacturing rounds?

“Series A” and “Series Unknown” each occur once or more depending on labeling: two rows are explicitly “Series A” (Tebang New Materials 2025-10-27; Hongde New Materials 2025-09-08), one is “Series B” (Hongju Technology 2025-10-07), one is “venture” (Semisic 2025-11-23), and one is “Series Unknown” (Wolai New Materials 2025-11-29).

Are there any outliers worth focusing on beyond the disclosed-size gap?

Wolai New Materials is an outlier on both disclosure fields: it is marked “Series Unknown” and “undisclosed” on 2025-11-29, whereas the only explicitly quantified round is Semisic’s $113M on 2025-11-23.
