CHINAPLAS 2024 International Plastics and Rubber Exhibition

Loaded with New Forms of Productivity, Sailing Towards a New Channel of High-Quality Development

New forms of productivity are advanced productivity qualities where innovation plays a leading role, breaking away from traditional economic growth patterns and development paths of productivity. They are characterized by high technology, high efficiency, and high quality, aligning with the new development paradigm. The formation of new forms of productivity cannot be separated from continuous breakthroughs in scientific and technological innovation. The “CHINAPLAS International Plastics and Rubber Exhibition” presents high-quality plastics and rubber innovation solutions and concurrent events, helping the industry tap into the “new forms of productivity” within the plastics and rubber world.

On the upcoming plastics and rubber giant ship of “CHINAPLAS 2024 International Plastics and Rubber Exhibition,” leading enterprises stand at the forefront of the tide, while small and medium-sized enterprises strive to catch up, with specialized and innovative enterprises emerging continuously. Leading exhibitors such as BASF, DuPont, Covestro, LG Chem, Evonik, Mitsubishi Chemical, Polyplastics, LyondellBasell, Borouge, Clariant, Sinopec, Wanhua Chemical, China National Petroleum Corporation, Sinochem Plastics, Kingfa, Watermax, Arburg, Brückner, Engel, Chen Hsong, Haitian International, Yizumi, Jinwei, Bocreat, Shaanxi Beiren, Liansu, and Tech-Long have showcased their “knockout products” demonstrating their hard power. Among this year’s exhibitors, over 800 have been awarded the title of “specialized, refined, innovative, and unique” enterprises, with more than 250 recognized as “little giants.” These plastics and rubber “rising stars” have successively unveiled their “golden brands,” exhibiting locally developed advanced plastics and rubber machinery and innovative material solutions, pushing “high-end technology, made in China” to the world market.

Concurrent with the exhibition is the “Global Plastics and Rubber Industry Development Trends and Technology Summit Forum,” focusing on emerging industries such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaics, wind power, lithium batteries, hydrogen energy, energy storage, packaging, electronics, and electrical appliances. It explores hot topics such as “Global Plastics and Rubber Industry Outlook: Trends, Opportunities, and Challenges,” “Digital Empowerment for Industrial Transformation and Sustainable Development,” “Innovative Technology Applications: Green Energy,” and “Innovative Technology Applications: Electric Vehicles.” Representatives from authoritative plastics and rubber industry associations and top industry figures from China, Germany, Italy, the United States, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Brazil, and other countries will share trends, opportunities, and challenges in key and emerging markets worldwide, jointly promoting technology-led plastics and rubber industry upgrades and advancing commitments to sustainable development.

In addition, the “Technology Podium” focuses on five themes: advanced packaging solutions, environmental protection solutions, automotive plastics solutions, 3D printing, and new plastics and rubber materials in 2024, with more than 30 of the latest, hottest, and most groundbreaking frontier technologies being launched.

Anchoring in the Direction of Intelligence and Greenness, New Forms of Productivity Move Forward in New Directions

New forms of productivity are both intelligent and green. The exhibition features zones for injection molding machinery and intelligent equipment, auxiliary equipment and testing instruments, and 3D technology, comprehensively showcasing “digitalization and intelligent manufacturing” technologies such as AI-intelligent plastic molding, machine vision and AI, AI visible light sorters, robotic technology and automation, high-speed, highly stable robots, digital platforms, solutions for fully automatic interconnection of multiple production processes, and digital twins, vividly demonstrating how digitalization enhances the efficiency and productivity of production processes.

In zones related to “circular economy and sustainable development,” such as recycled plastics, bioplastics, and recycling technology, the latest eco-friendly plastic materials and processing technologies, including post-consumer recycled polycarbonate, sustainable TPE, CO2-based multifunctional plastics, bio-based and biodegradable plastics, bottle flake sorters, chemical recycling technology, and innovative materials for optical storage and charging, will compete for attention.

Centered around the three themes of “Plastic Cycling and Fashion Trends,” “Recycling and the New Plastics Economy,” and “Industry Linkage and Low Carbon Across All Sectors,” the organizer will concurrently hold the “Plastic Recycling and Circular Economy Forum and Exhibition.” It invites industry organizations, brands, material and machinery suppliers, and other outstanding enterprises from around the world to participate and speak, discussing the global macro trends and hotspots of the circular economy. The content includes international trends and policy orientations for plastic recycling, recycling and sorting experiences from leading regions, and innovative ideas and achievements in recycling and utilization.
