China (Shanghai) International Powder, Bulk Materials & Fluid Processing Exhibition

Highlights of the Shanghai International Powder Exhibition (IPB Powder Expo)

• China’s Flagship Platform Among the World’s Three Major Powder Exhibitions: Co-hosted by the Chinese Society of Particle Science and the NürnbergMesse Group, it serves as the Chinese sub-exhibition of Germany’s POWTECH, forming part of the global trio of major international powder processing exhibitions alongside POWTECH and POWTEX. After more than two decades of development, it has become the leading domestic trade show focusing on the entire powder, bulk material, and fluid processing value chain, committed to providing a comprehensive “one-stop solution service platform” for the global powder industry.
• Comprehensive Coverage Across Six Core Industry Segments: The exhibit range fully encompasses six key areas—raw materials and ingredients, preparation and processing equipment, bulk material handling and storage, particle analysis and characterization, safety and environmental protection technologies, and measurement and control systems. From basic processing machinery such as crushing, mixing, and separation equipment to pneumatic conveying systems and intelligent control platforms; from nano-powder materials to industrial dust control and explosion-proof solutions—this exhibition presents a complete spectrum of technologies and solutions across the entire powder processing chain.
• Hub for International Resource Networking: As a member of the global triad of major powder exhibitions, it deeply integrates international resources from Germany’s POWTECH and Japan’s POWTEX. Starting in 2026, it will formally establish strategic partnerships with Central Asia’s UNITED CHEMICAL SHOW and Vietnam’s CHEMEXPO, breaking down barriers between China and East Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and Europe, enabling resource sharing and mutual business referrals to help enterprises expand into global markets.
• Frontier Technology Launchpad: During the exhibition, the “Annual Innovation Technology and New Product Launch Event” brings together global leaders such as Seki Mikron, NETZSCH, Kawada Machinery, and others to unveil the latest technological breakthroughs and innovative products in the powder sector. From novel nanomaterial synthesis techniques to smart automated processing equipment, from eco-friendly powder manufacturing processes to high-precision testing instruments—this platform provides businesses with an authoritative stage to showcase their innovative strengths and seize technological leadership.
• Authoritative Empowerment Through High-Profile Forums: Concurrent technical seminars focus on hot topics including next-generation battery materials, premium pharmaceutical powders, coating materials, dust explosion prevention, and bulk material handling. Renowned domestic and international industry experts and corporate representatives engage in discussions on pressing technical challenges and emerging trends, announcing outstanding innovations and products of the year to drive independent R&D and transformation within the industry. The joint pharmaceutical powder preparation forum co-hosted with the European Pharmaceutical Association (APV) stands as a model example of Sino-European pharmaceutical collaboration.
• Precision Supply-Demand Matching Platform: An innovative “one-stop buying-and-selling matching service” allows visitors to submit procurement requests online in advance. Based on these needs, the organizers match exhibitors accordingly, setting up dedicated offline matchmaking zones to realize an efficient “online appointment, offline connection” model. During the exhibition, specialized purchasing delegations are organized, with dedicated personnel guiding negotiation sessions, ensuring more efficient procurement and smoother cooperation.
• Deep Engagement in the Chinese Powder Market, Covering Diverse Industries: The primary visitor base comprises professionals from the chemical industry (35%), pharmaceuticals (12%), food and feed (11%), as well as energy, ceramics and glass, metallurgy, and mining sectors. From battery slurries and polishing liquids to pharmaceutical preparations and food processing—powder technologies find applications across countless fields, providing enterprises with a strategic platform to connect deeply with upstream and downstream resources within China’s powder supply chain.
