Profile

The China International Hardware Fair (CIHF, also known as the Shanghai Hardware Fair) has long been dedicated to the hardware and electromechanical industries, serving as a leading benchmark for China’s hardware sector and a premier brand‑driven event in the industry. The CIHF focuses on hardware and electromechanical brands and the overall development of the sector, consistently ranking first among industry trade shows across key performance indicators.

Originating from the National Hardware Commodity Ordering Fair, the CIHF has evolved through China’s transition from a planned economy to a market economy since its inception in 1952, adopting its current name in 2001. Today, it has grown into China’s largest and most highly branded specialized hardware exhibition. It not only provides domestic hardware companies with a robust platform for marketing and collaboration but also offers strong support for international hardware brands seeking entry into the Chinese market, making it an indispensable venue for industry professionals to gain insights and identify business opportunities.

Notable exhibiting companies include Deli Group, Dongcheng Electromechanical, Stanley Tools, Future Ten Thousand Homes, TTI Creative Technology Group, Makita (China), Weller Lion Holdings, Great Wall Precision, Shiji Persian Tools, Eagle Mark Hardware, Ruiqi Holdings, Tengya Precision, Greebo, Jianghua Measuring Instruments, Juli Tools, and over 3,170 other enterprises. Industry leaders have gathered in Shanghai to jointly celebrate this landmark event.

At this year’s CIHF, exhibits are meticulously organized into specialized zones, including a Manual Tools Pavilion, an Electric Tools Pavilion, a Lifting & Rigging and Logistics Equipment Zone, an Abrasives & Grinding Tools Zone, a Pneumatic Tools Zone, a Robotics + Hardware Innovation Showcase Area, a Personal Protective Equipment Zone, a Gardening & Cleaning Equipment Zone, and a China Hardware & Electromechanical Innovation Exhibition Area. This precise categorization facilitates efficient route planning and enhances visitor experience. Throughout the fair, attendees can explore cutting-edge products, technologies, and innovations, while thematic forums, new product launches, and dealer conferences take turns presenting valuable insights, offering a comprehensive view of industry trends and developments.

As the global economy undergoes profound structural adjustments and China enters the critical phase of its economic restructuring, those who successfully navigate these transformations will secure a competitive edge in the next stage of growth. Therefore, hardware and electromechanical enterprises must remain keenly attuned to emerging opportunities and embrace innovative business models. The China International Hardware Fair (CIHF) will continue to support these efforts, helping companies achieve transformation and seize future opportunities.The China International Hardware Fair (CIHF)will persist in driving the digitalization and upgrading of the hardware and electromechanical sectors, ensuring that participating enterprises stay ahead of the curve.

Reasons to Exhibit at the China Hardware Expo

The world’s premier hardware trade show: Since its inception in 1952, after more than seven decades of development, it has grown into one of the largest and most influential specialized hardware exhibitions globally. Accredited by UFI, the International Association of Exhibitions and Events, it ranks among the top-tier international trade shows, serving as a key symbol of global exhibition quality and competitiveness.
One-stop coverage of the entire industry chain: The exhibit range spans ten major categories—power tools, hand tools, abrasives and grinding tools, pneumatic tools, welding equipment, electromechanical products, hardware items, machinery, lifting and rigging gear, and personal protective equipment—encompassing tens of thousands of individual hardware products. Over 3,100 renowned domestic and international companies participate, including well-known brands such as Makita, HiKOKI, Great Wall Precision, Juxing, and Dongcheng.
A hub for global buyers: The event attracts overseas purchasers and regional agents from more than 70 countries and regions. At the 2025 edition, 77,016 professional buyers attended from 123 countries, including 5,945 international visitors. Through partnerships with trade promotion agencies along the Belt and Road and neighboring Asian nations, a robust global trading platform has been established.
Integrated online–offline services for long-term engagement: All participating companies can register free of charge on the official online platform of the expo, gaining access to a year-long virtual showroom that enables them to benefit throughout the year after their physical presence. Pioneering integration of live-streaming ecosystems into every stage of the event—from pre-show marketing and lead generation, to virtual tours during the exhibition, to post-event brand asset accumulation—breaks the traditional three-day time constraint of conventional trade shows.
Deep industry-chain integration: Concurrently, multiple high-level forums, technical seminars, and product launch events are held, focusing on pressing topics such as “Digital Transformation Pathways for the Hardware Industry,” “Green Manufacturing and Sustainable Development,” and “Global Expansion Strategies for Hardware Enterprises.” The “SaiSi Innovation Excellence Recommendation Program” highlights innovative products with significant market potential, setting benchmarks for industry advancement.
Coordinated efforts between domestic and international markets: Actively implementing the new “Dual Circulation” development strategy, the expo fosters seamless integration between domestic and international trade, achieving precise supply–demand matching on a global scale. Overseas exhibitors represent 16 countries and regions, including Germany, France, Italy, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Turkey, and India.

Review

The 22nd China International Hardware Show (CIHS) was successfully held from October 10 to 12, 2025, at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. With the theme “Smart Hardware · Green Future,” the exhibition spanned 120,000 square meters and brought together 2,977 exhibiting companies from 16 countries and regions worldwide. The showcased products covered the entire industry chain, including hand tools, power tools, garden and landscaping equipment, abrasives and grinding tools, construction hardware, fasteners, locks, and security products.

International participation significantly expanded, with exhibitors hailing from 16 countries and regions, including Germany, France, Italy, the United States, Japan, and South Korea. Renowned international brands such as Germany’s KUKKO, France’s DIAGER, and the UK’s Avron were all present. The increase in overseas exhibitors also attracted a corresponding rise in international buyers, drawing 77,016 professional buyers and visitors from 123 countries and regions, among whom 5,945 were international attendees.

Leading domestic enterprises showcased their innovations, with industry leaders like Juxing, Wendeng Weili, Hongbao Tools, Zhongtianda, KADIS, and Dessmann presenting cutting-edge developments in tool hardware, smart locks, and related fields. Industrial clusters continued to participate collectively, with regional industrial bases such as Lin’an, Jiande, Pujiang, Anping, Longyao, and Jinhua jointly promoting their local brands.

Business matchmaking yielded remarkable results, with the “China Hardware Brands Going Global Conference and Global Sourcing & Supply Chain Matchmaking Event” generating over US$80 million in intended transaction value, receiving more than 200 sample orders, inviting over 30 companies for on-site buyer visits, and signing 15 regional agency agreements. Many exhibitors reported hosting clients from Japan, Azerbaijan, Southeast Asia, and countries along the Belt and Road Initiative, resulting in numerous intentions to procure full container loads.
