It is divided into five exhibition halls according to themes such as plastic packaging and film technology, new plastic materials, plastic intelligent equipment, plastic building materials, daily plastic products, and plastic green development. A number of plastic-related industrial clusters led by relevant local governments will also participate in the exhibition in the form of exhibition groups to showcase the innovative image of local outstanding enterprises and the unique advantages and charm of local industrial clusters.

Integrating green development concepts

Create a "one-stop" communication and display platform

"With the continuous innovation and development of the plastics industry, the 2024 China International Plastics Exhibition is also constantly introducing new concepts, presenting upgraded highlights, highlighting the display of scientific and technological achievements and innovative technologies, integrating the industry's green development concept, and implanting keywords such as new quality productivity, ecological development, digitalization and intelligent manufacturing, and circular economy into this exhibition." Jia Ning said that a large number of outstanding backbone enterprises in the plastics industry will make a wonderful appearance in this exhibition, covering the entire industrial chain, playing the leading role of leading enterprises, and jointly creating a "one-stop" authoritative communication and display platform. In addition, in order to promote the development of science and technology to empower the industry, this exhibition will have more than 100 booths from major university teams and research institutes to carry out centralized display of scientific and technological research results, release of scientific and technological achievements, and exchange of industry-university-research transformation, so as to empower the industry with science and technology.

Tian Yan, vice chairman of the China Plastics Association, introduced that during the exhibition, the China Plastics Association will hold a series of high-quality conferences and activities, including the 4th China Plastics Industry Science and Technology Conference and the China Plastics Processing Industry 35-Year Development Report Conference, the 35th Anniversary of the Establishment of the China Plastics Processing Industry Association, and nearly 40 other industry series conferences. Through various forms, authoritative industry reports will be released, development trends will be shared, policies will be interpreted, development results and experiences will be exchanged, and key, common, and bottleneck technical problems and difficulties in the industry will be discussed to provide guidance for industry innovation and to gather wisdom and strength for the construction of a modern and powerful country.

"At present, my country's economy is in a period of development and transformation. There are pains in the conversion from old to new growth drivers, and the plastics industry is moving forward under pressure. As an important event in the plastics industry, the China International Plastics Exhibition will play an important role in promoting exchanges and cooperation, and in coordinating the advancement of scientific and technological innovation, green transformation, digital transformation, and intelligent transformation in the industry." Zhu Wenwei, honorary chairman of the China Plastics Association, said.

Promoting international exchanges and cooperation

Enhance industry influence

"At present, the world economic growth momentum is insufficient, regional hot issues are frequent, and the complexity, severity and uncertainty of the external environment are increasing. How to expand high-level opening up to the outside world, deal with trade barriers, expand international market applications, enhance the international voice of China's plastics industry, and accelerate the scientific pace of "inviting in" and "going out" are issues that the industry needs to think about." Wang Zhanjie, chairman of the China Plastics Association, said that in recent years, the China Plastics Processing Industry Association has carried out exchanges and cooperation with industry organizations in many countries. The "Asian Plastics Industry Sustainable Development Conference and the 33rd Asian Plastics Forum and the 20th ASEAN Plastics Alliance Conference" jointly organized by the China Plastics Association and the Asian Plastics Forum will further promote in-depth cooperation between China and other Asian countries in the field of plastics industry. By strengthening technical exchanges, market expansion and resource sharing, the Asian plastics industry will be promoted to form a closer industrial chain and supply chain system, and the industrial competitiveness and sustainable development capabilities of the entire region will be enhanced.

Wang Zhanjie said that the holding of this conference will provide an important window for the Chinese plastics industry to showcase its strength and achievements. By sharing China's experience and technology in sustainable development of the plastics industry, the international image and influence of the Chinese plastics industry will be enhanced, the transformation and upgrading of the Chinese plastics industry and its green development will be promoted, and the implementation of international cooperation projects in the plastics industry between China and Asia and other countries will be promoted.
