[With the upgrading and transforming of manufacturing industry in China, the demand of technological advancement will continue to rise. Shenzhen is recognized as a benchmark city with high-end transformation, playing an indispensable role in this critical era," said Mr. Stanley Chu, Chairman of the Adsale Group. CHINAPLAS 2023 is coming back to Shenzhen to promote the high-quality development of the industry and advanced manufacturing in order to drive the industry towards [Green, Smart, Advance".
A Brighter Future for Advanced Manufacturing Industry
Since 1983, accompanying the growth of China`s plastics and rubber industries for 40 years, CHINAPLAS has grown to become the world`s leading plastics and rubber fair widely recognized by the industry as one of the most influential exhibitions in the world. More than 1,500 materials suppliers and 3,000 sets of machinery exhibits stage in total 18 exhibitions halls, supporting smart, efficient, cost-effective, and low-carbon manufacturing. Being the first world-class plastics and rubber industry mega event held in China after the relaxation of pandemic controls, CHINAPLAS can`t wait to show the world advanced technological achievement and breakthrough for high-end manufacturing.
In 2022, the sales of new energy vehicles in China have increased 93.4% and the proportion of clean energy consumption not limited to wind, solar energy, hydrogen energy in China has increased to 25% above. The demand of e-commerce logistics packaging, prefabricated vegetable packaging and innovative medical devices are growing rapidly. Fulfilling these market demands, the exhibition is showcasing a full array of innovative solutions, including over 200 world / Asian debut technologies. Innovative and high-tech materials are presented from long fiber reinforced thermoplastics for different applications, high performance and sustainable flame retardant solutions for EVs to tie layer materials for solar cells and silicone elastomer, which is resistant to -114℃ application scenarios, for biopharma tubing. In the newly introduced Innovative Products Zone, functional film products are displayed, such as biaxially oriented and heat shrinkable films, high barrier packaging bags, LCP films, optical films, lithium battery separator and photovoltaic packaging films, etc., as well as high performance products, such as sheets, plates, bars, pipes and other products made of PEEK, PPS, PAI, PVDF, ETFE, etc.
Apart from exhibits, a variety of concurrent activities are held to further demonstrate the breakthrough and advancement of plastics and rubber solutions. Research and development is essential for enterprises to improve their competitiveness. Renowned scientists and academicians will be invited at the concurrent event - SciXplore Forum to share their views and latest reports on future development trend and scientific breakthrough achievement of polymer industry.
Prof. Yuzhong WANG, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering will share his views on [New Routes and Technologies on Green, Low-Carbon Development of Polymer Materials". Prof. Chul B. PARK, Academician of The Academy of Science of the Royal Society of Canada, Canadian Academy of Engineering will talk about [Achievement of Plastics Having Both High Toughness and High Stiffness". Prof. Shuhong YU, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering will focus on [Nanocellulose – Natural Polymer Materials".
Enterprises categorized under "Professionalization, Refinement, Specialization and Innovation"(PRSI) are new forces and future leading companies in the plastics and rubber industries. Among 3,900+ exhibitors, over 400 enterprises are honored as [PRSI", and more than 100 national-level enterprises are awarded as a [Little Giant". To help these rising stars expand their business opportunities, the first [PRSI – Shining Stars in Plastics & Rubber Industries" will be held with the latest policies being introduced by the industry association leaders. "Professionalization, Refinement, Specialization and Innovation" thematic route is designed, allowing quality buyers from the sectors of automobiles, building material, packaging, electronics etc. to connect face-to-face with "PRSI" enterprises
Industrial design has become a catalyzer for driving industrial transformation and upgrading. CHINAPLAS has been providing strong support to inspire innovative product design ideas in plastic technology. Under the theme of Product DNA: Low Carbon, Intelligent, Health-pursuit, the concurrent event of CHINAPLAS 2023 - "Design x Innovation" launches two inspiring events, [Design x Innovation Gallery" and [Design Forum" to showcase creative end products and gather experience from global designers.
Molding is one of fundamental and essential manufacturing processes. In the "Empowering Product Quality with Advanced Molding & Innovative Technology" Symposium, it will show how to improve the quality of products and resolve the obstacles in the manufacturing process from the perspective of molding.
