2026 China International Coatings, Inks and Adhesives Exhibition

Date: December 15-17, 2026

Location: Shanghai New International Expo Center

Exhibition Overview:

As a barometer of the national economy, the development level of the coatings industry directly reflects a country's industrialization process and technological strength. Currently, the global coatings market is in a critical period of structural adjustment and technological transformation, with environmental protection, functionalization, and high-end becoming irreversible trends. On the basis of expanding its scale, the Chinese coatings industry is accelerating its transformation towards a quality and efficiency oriented model, facing the strategic opportunity of "growing from large to strong".

In the future, the development of the industry will present the following characteristics: firstly, driven by environmental policies, green coatings have become the mainstream of the market, and the penetration rate of low VOC products such as water-based, powder, and solvent-free will continue to increase, while the market share of traditional solvent based coatings will further shrink. Secondly, technological innovation has become the core competitiveness, and enterprises need to increase research and development investment, break through key technologies such as high-end resin synthesis and functional additives, and achieve a leap from "following imitation" to "independent innovation". Thirdly, the market concentration is accelerating, industry mergers and acquisitions are becoming normalized, and top enterprises dominate the market through economies of scale and brand advantages. Small and medium-sized enterprises need to transform into segmented fields, regional markets, or specialized services. Fourthly, there is a clear trend of collaborative development in the industrial chain. Upstream raw material enterprises, downstream application enterprises, and coating production enterprises will strengthen cooperation, build a green supply chain system, and enhance overall competitiveness. Despite facing multiple challenges such as environmental pressure, technological barriers, and international competition, the coatings industry still has vast development space with China's economic transformation and upgrading, the promotion of new urbanization, and the rise of emerging industries. Enterprises need to seize the opportunities of green transformation and high-end development, with technological innovation as the engine, brand building as the support, and market demand as the guide, to promote the industry towards high-quality development and achieve a historic leap from a "paint country" to a "paint power".
