Amid the global wave of manufacturing's transition toward high-end and green development, CHINAPLAS 2026 will be held from April 21 to 24, 2026 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Hongqiao), Shanghai, China. With "Transformation · Collaboration · Sustainability" as its core theme, this edition of the show brings together cutting-edge global materials, technologies and solutions, aiming to provide strategic support for the upgrading and transformation of the industry chain.
Directly Tackling the Pain Points of Medical Rubber & Plastics, Driving Medical Device Innovation and Upgrading
In the fields of medical devices, consumables and pharmaceutical packaging, safety compliance, cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and green transformation have become core challenges facing enterprises. To help the industry grasp the trends and explore efficient solutions, the show has specially created the "Medical Plastics Connect" thematic event, showcasing innovative technologies for the global medical market in a concentrated manner.
At the event, more than 1,600 medical plastics technology suppliers will gather on site, providing medical product manufacturers with a full-industry-chain technology matrix covering biocompatible materials, eco-friendly medical materials, medical 3D printing, liquid silicone rubber injection molding, high-precision molding, cleanroom production, precision extrusion and more, so as to solve production pain points and respond to industry changes.
Leading Enterprises Assemble, Authoritative Forums Lead Industry Trends
The focus event of the show's first day (April 21) afternoon, the "Medical Plastics Forum", will take the stage first, where leading companies such as Americhem, Dow, Covestro and Wanhua will present highly valuable technical introductions.
Americhem will share its medical-grade ColorRx® medical polymer technology, offering compliant and customizable color solutions that balance biocompatibility and production reliability;
Dow will introduce its high-performance material solutions for medical devices, pharmaceutical packaging and single-use consumables, supporting medical innovation with safe and reliable products;
Covestro will reveal how Maestro helps improve equipment precision and enable green product circularity through material innovation.
In addition, the "Symposium on the Independent Innovation and Development of Medical Equipment", hosted by the Shanghai Lingang Medical Equipment Science and Technology Industry Research Center, will be held on the morning of April 23, bringing together university professors, representatives of local enterprises and multinational companies to discuss in depth the localization challenges of medical polymers and actionable solutions.
Authoritative Guide and Thematic Navigation to Precisely Target Your Visiting Goals
To improve the visiting efficiency of medical industry buyers, the organizer will officially release the "Medical Plastics Guide" in mid-March. The guide will outline the popular medical innovative technologies at the show, helping buyers quickly grasp key technologies and plan their visiting itineraries.
Meanwhile, in the "Visitor Guide" provided on the show's official website and on site, we have specially added a dedicated "Medical & Health" visiting route, taking you through five thematic tours to meet the most representative suppliers in the medical rubber and plastics field.
We look forward to gathering with medical industry elites from around the world at CHINAPLAS 2026 to explore together the infinite possibilities of high-tech rubber and plastics materials empowering medical technology.
