Case Study: IPAC achieves control of its product catalog and gated technical library with WordPress and cre8

IPAC launches a WordPress site with gated documents in 2026 with cre8

IPAC, a manufacturer of petroleum additives, needed to move its product catalog and gated technical library from a limiting custom PHP site to a platform its own team could control. The challenge was to replatform the site without changing its public-facing look and structure or breaking existing URLs for products and documents. They engaged the vendor cre8 for this CMS replatforming project.

cre8 rebuilt the site in WordPress, carrying over the original design and ensuring all old addresses redirected correctly. The solution preserved the gated document library while empowering IPAC's team to manage all content and customer accounts themselves. Post-launch, cre8 also moved the site behind Cloudflare for security and extended IPAC's proprietary formulation web application. The result is a site that IPAC's team now manages end-to-end without developer assistance.
