CHINAPLAS 2027 will take place on Apr 13-16, 2027, in Shenzhen, China.

Highlighting industry transformation

CHINAPLAS 2027 brings together enterprises and technology experts throughout the global plastics and rubber industrial chain to showcase and exchange innovations in intelligent manufacturing, advanced materials, circular economy, and low-carbon technologies.

CHINAPLAS covers technological and green innovations for a wide range of applications.

By facilitating technology exchange, supply-demand matching, and cross-regional cooperation, the exhibition will further strengthen Shenzhen’s role as an international platform that connects the Asia-Pacific and reaches the world, propelling the plastics and rubber industries towards higher levels of technological innovation, green transformation, and industrial collaboration.

Anchored by six defining trends — green development, intelligence, high-end advancement, functionality, integration and globalization, the exhibition unites over 4,700 international exhibitors and over 300,000 professional visitors from around the world.

From plastics and rubber raw materials to machinery and equipment, and from innovative technology products to downstream application industries, every segment in the value chain works in concert with a global outlook.

By drawing together diverse strengths and injecting greater “certainty” into the industry’s development, CHINAPLAS continues to lead the transformation and upgrading of the plastics and rubber industries towards the higher end of the value chain.

Shenzhen, where frontier tech meets real-world applications

Shenzhen’s strategic emerging and future industries are unleashing powerful momentum, expanding horizons and unlocking broad application opportunities for innovation across the plastics and rubber industries.

Crucially, Shenzhen serves as a civil-scale proving ground for pioneering technologies and products, enabling accelerated market adoption and the rapid scaling of innovation. As a premier hub for end-product deployment, Shenzhen offers unparalleled value for the commercial validation of innovative materials.

Applications for emerging industries, including low-altitude economy and humanoid robots, are highlights of CHINAPLAS.

Returning to Shenzhen, CHINAPLAS 2027 will harness this innovation ecosystem to speed up scenario-based validation and real-world deployment of plastics and rubber breakthroughs. The show goes beyond exhibit display, placing greater emphasis on breaking industry boundaries.

This edition continues to push the application boundaries of plastics and rubber, focusing on high-growth sectors such as the low-altitude economy, embodied intelligence, AI data centers, and semiconductors. Concurrently, it connects with established industries including automotive, packaging, electrical and electronics, building and infrastructure, and medical and healthcare.

Through cross-sector integration, the show will expand and upgrade application scenarios for plastics and rubber technologies, converting innovative achievements into new quality productive forces.

Connecting global business

CHINAPLAS has a higher-level international platform of broader reach, converging premium resources and business opportunities from the plastics and rubber value chain at a greater pace.

CHINAPLAS offers a platform for international experts and companies to connect.

As both an “industry barometer” and a “resource connector” for the global plastics and rubber industries, CHINAPLAS empowers professionals to identify industry trends, connect with quality global resources, and navigate precisely for market opportunities.

Upstream and downstream enterprises will meet face-to-face on-site to explore cutting-edge technology pathways, innovative application scenarios, and industry trends.
