As an authoritative professional exhibition with a long history in the domestic petrochemical industry, the 23rd China International Chemical Exhibition（ICIF China is scheduled to land at the Shanghai New International Expo Center on September 1517, 2026. The exhibition is hosted by the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation, carrying the important functions of showcasing innovative achievements in the chemical industry, promoting supply and demand docking in the industrial chain, and promoting green and low-carbon transformation. It is an important industrial exchange carrier in the field of chemical new materials in China and even in the Asia Pacific region.

The current chemical industry is at a critical stage of accelerating green transformation and developing new quality productivity. The dual carbon target, semiconductor new material research and development, intelligent manufacturing in the chemical industry, and the transformation of industry university research achievements have become the core propositions of the industry. This exhibition focuses on the practical needs of the industry, setting up multiple professional exhibition areas including basic chemical raw materials, fine specialty chemicals, high-performance new chemical materials, complete chemical equipment, environmental protection technology, laboratory analytical instruments, safety protection equipment, etc., covering the entire chemical industry chain upstream and downstream. The exhibition attracts thousands of domestic and foreign companies to participate, covering various entities such as large leading enterprises, specialized and innovative enterprises in segmented tracks, and research institutes.

Built at the same time as the exhibition The "Petrochemical Industry Week" series of supporting activities includes dozens of thematic forums, technical seminars, and procurement matchmaking meetings held simultaneously. The topics cover the upgrading of coal chemical industry, research and development of key semiconductor materials, green transformation of chemical industrial parks, new technologies for hazardous waste treatment, and the implementation and transformation of scientific and technological achievements. Specially set up a supply and demand docking zone and a scientific research achievement display section on site, breaking down information barriers between scientific research institutions, production enterprises, and downstream purchasers, and accelerating the industrialization of technological achievements.

From the perspective of exhibitors, the exhibition provides a platform for chemical enterprises to showcase new technologies and products to downstream manufacturing industries, chemical parks, and traders, expand the domestic market, and connect with overseas customer resources. For professional audiences, including manufacturing procurement managers, chemical park managers, research and technical personnel, and traders, one-stop comparison of various chemical raw materials, equipment, and environmental solutions is available to explore supply chain cooperation opportunities.

  Industry insiders point out that the chemical industry is a fundamental pillar industry of the national economy, and greening and high-end development are inevitable directions for future development. The 23rd China International Chemical Industry Exhibition will focus on presenting the phased achievements of China's chemical industry transformation and upgrading, helping to build a safe and resilient chemical industry supply chain, and promoting deep exchanges and cooperation between domestic and foreign chemical industries.
