2024 Review

"It was crowded and presented plenty of opportunities. I gained a lot from this exhibition, ranging from the necessary technologies for front-end development to R&D processes, as well as production equipment and intelligent manufacturing. I found better and higher-quality supply chains and related technologies in the show. In particular, I was impressed by the hydrogen fuel cell technology, specifically the miniaturization of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC, demonstrated high energy conversion efficiency, good low-temperature startup performance, high output current, and low operating noise. It is suitable for cooling technology in hydrogen-powered vehicles, empowering the breakthrough of technology and unveiling a new trend."

"We observed that CHINAPLAS has been keeping up with the trends in the environmental market, and providing the latest, effective, and comprehensive information to help companies better address environmental challenges. Particularly in the dedicated networking sessions during the exhibition, CHINAPLAS accurately matched us with potential partner companies, technical experts, and sales personnel based on our specific needs. This allowed us to have face-to-face interactions with industry professionals, enabling us to gain in-depth knowledge about environmental materials, technologies, and trends in a short period of time."

"I attend CHINAPLAS every year. This year, my main objective was to understand the practical application of environmental friendly materials and PCR materials in the market. Additionally, CHINAPLAS serves as an excellent platform for networking. During this exhibition, I not only met many old friends in the industry but also had the opportunity to engage in face-to-face conversations with industry professionals. This allowed me to gain in-depth knowledge about their companies' products and solutions, resulting in significant insights and takeaways."

"As an engineer who has been involved in medical device development, attending CHINAPLAS for the first time this year was an eye-opening experience, and I gained a lot from it. At the exhibition, I witnessed meticulous efforts in industrial layout, smart manufacturing, and downstream services in specific sectors. The notable improvement in local machinery, raw material particles, inspection equipment, and other areas truly featured the rise of local manufacturing, opens more possibilities for local substitution and cost reduction in our downstream activities. Furthermore, concepts like "circular economy" and "carbon footprint" were the keywords at this year's exhibition. While these terms may still be conceptual at the product level, upstream manufacturers have already transformed them into new products and equipment. This provides us with more choices to meet the regulatory requirements of medical device regulations in various countries."

"I was able to find a wealth of resources at CHINAPLAS, especially in the areas of molds and machinery equipment. I discovered some new suppliers and gained valuable insights into advanced technologies, particularly in the field of new materials. This experience has been extremely beneficial to me."

"I was surprised to witness the rapid development of plastics and rubber technologies at this exhibition. I saw a wide range of specialized plastic materials on-site, and their colours and performance were truly impressive. It made me consider them as substitutes for metal materials. It's exciting to witness so many new possibilities, providing the industry with more choices in the future. Currently, my company is also expanding into the development of auxiliary materials for crafts and clothing. The insights gained from this exhibition are extremely helpful for exploring new business opportunities. Many of the materials showcased can be applied to related products, opening up new avenues for us."

"This time, I led a delegation of nearly 15 companies to visit CHINAPLAS. The members are seeking high-quality raw materials and machinery suppliers in China to support the production of electric, telecommunication, wires, pipes, and other products. Additionally, we participated in the business matching held by the organizer, which was a fantastic service. Especially when it's challenging to find relevant suppliers on our own in the vast sea of options, the business matching provided us with an efficient platform for face-to-face communication with exhibitors."
