China Metrology Exhibition – Shanghai Exhibition on Metrology Testing Technology and Equipment

The Value of Participating in the China Metrology Expo

• The Beijing Metrology Testing Expo (CMTE CHINA) is Asia’s first specialized international procurement event dedicated to metrology and testing. Since its inception, it has been successfully held seven times and is widely regarded in the industry as a bellwether for China’s metrology sector and a pivotal gateway for global metrology and testing technologies entering the Chinese market. Co-hosted by the China Metrology Association and the Shanghai Metrology Association, the expo enjoys strong support from authoritative institutions such as the Chinese Academy of Metrology, the Chinese Metrology Testing Society, and the Beijing Metrology Association, making it the largest and most prestigious platform for industry-wide exchanges among metrologists in China.
• The core value of participation lies in its unparalleled industry authority and its unique ability to connect directly with national metrology institutions. Leveraging the robust resources of national platforms—including the China Metrology Association, the Chinese Metrology Testing Society, and the Chinese Academy of Metrology—the expo attracts management and technical personnel from leading national and provincial research institutes, laboratories, and large and medium-sized enterprise labs to attend and make purchases. The professional audience includes representatives from State Grid, water utilities, gas corporations, petrochemical, aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries—end-users of metrology services—providing participating companies with a strategic window to engage directly with China’s key decision-makers in metrology procurement.
• The expo establishes a one-stop commercial platform covering the entire metrology and testing value chain. Exhibits span three core segments: scientific metrology (including standard-setting test equipment, temperature, pressure, and flow measurement instruments, electromagnetic devices, chemical laboratory apparatus, vehicle testing tools, and charging station calibration devices), industrial metrology (standard measuring tools, coordinate measuring machines, precision analytical instruments, advanced precision measurement systems, material testing machines, universal testing machines), and legal metrology (smart water, electricity, and heat meters, fuel dispensers, weighing scales, medical blood pressure and thermometer devices, environmental monitoring equipment). From national metrology standards to household utility meters, from laboratory precision instruments to on-site industrial testing equipment, the expo forms a complete closed-loop ecosystem for the metrology and testing industry.
• The expo aligns with three major industry trends—dual-carbon metrology, digital transformation, and metrology for people’s livelihoods—building a high ground for deep integration among industry, academia, research, and application. Concurrent with the expo, events such as the “International Metrology and Testing Development Forum,” the “Precision Measurement Promoting High-Quality Development Forum,” the “Smart Energy Meter Development and Application Foresight Summit,” the “Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality Digital Metrology Standards System Summit,” and the National Metrology Directors’ Summit were held. Discussion topics ranged from metrology technologies in the dual-carbon era to digital metrology driving high-quality development of national defense metrology, smart metering management boosting urban service efficiency, and measurement safeguarding public health—cutting-edge issues addressed in these forums. The expo also included award ceremonies for innovative metrology products and forums for exchanging new metrology technologies and products, providing the industry with trend insights and strategic guidance.
• For Chinese enterprises, the expo serves as a strategic gateway to tap into the Chinese metrology market, connect with national resources, and showcase their innovative strengths. As the largest platform for industry-wide exchanges among metrologists in China, the expo has already attracted thousands of domestic and international metrology testing organizations and instrument manufacturers. High-tech and specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative enterprises account for half of the exhibitors, vividly demonstrating the latest brand achievements of China’s high-end metrology instruments and devices. Participating companies can leverage this platform to establish connections with key national laboratories, provincial metrology institutes, and end-user industry procurement networks, seizing early opportunities in China’s ongoing transformation toward intelligent, high-end, and domestically produced metrology and testing solutions.
