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

Highlights of the Shanghai International Powder Technology Exhibition (IPB)

• China’s flagship platform among the world’s three major powder exhibitions: Co-organized by the Chinese Society of Particle Science and Technology and NürnbergMesse, it serves as the Chinese sub‑exhibition of POWTECH, the Nuremberg Powder Technology Fair. Together with POWTECH in Germany and POWTEX in Japan, it forms one of the world’s three premier international powder processing exhibition clusters. After more than two decades of development, it has become China’s leading specialized trade show covering the entire value chain of powder, bulk material, and fluid processing, committed to providing the global powder industry with a “one-stop comprehensive solution service platform.”
• Comprehensive coverage across six core sectors of the entire industrial chain: The exhibit lineup fully encompasses six key areas—raw materials and feedstocks, preparation and processing equipment, bulk material handling and storage, particle analysis and characterization, safety and environmental protection technologies, and measurement and control systems. From fundamental processing machinery such as grinding, mixing, and separation equipment to pneumatic conveying systems and intelligent control solutions; from nano‑powder materials to industrial dust collection and explosion‑proof technologies—this event presents end-to-end technologies and solutions for the powder industry.
• An international resource‑linking hub: As a member of the global triad of major powder exhibitions, it deeply integrates international resources from POWTECH in Germany and POWTEX in Japan. Starting in 2026, it will formally establish strategic partnerships with the Central Asian UNITED CHEMICAL SHOW and Vietnam’s CHEMEXPO, breaking down barriers to collaboration between China and East Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and Europe in the powder sector. This will facilitate mutual access to resources, cross‑border business referrals, and help companies expand into global markets.
• A premier venue for unveiling cutting‑edge technologies: During the exhibition, an annual Innovation Technology and New Product Launch Event is held, bringing together global industry leaders such as Seko Micron, NETZSCH, and Kawada Machinery to showcase the latest technological breakthroughs and innovative products in the powder field. From novel nanomaterial synthesis techniques to smart automated processing equipment, from green and sustainable powder manufacturing processes to high‑precision analytical instruments, this platform provides enterprises with an authoritative stage to demonstrate their innovation capabilities and seize technological leadership.
• Authoritative empowerment through multiple high‑level forums: Concurrent technical seminars are organized on hot topics including new energy battery materials, high‑end pharmaceutical powders, coating materials, dust explosion prevention, and bulk material handling. Renowned domestic and international experts and corporate representatives gather to discuss pressing technical challenges and emerging trends, unveil outstanding innovations and products of the year, and drive independent R&D and industrial transformation. The joint Pharmaceutical Powder Preparation Technology Forum co‑hosted with the Association of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers in Europe (APV) stands as a model of Sino‑European cooperation in the pharmaceutical sector.
• A precision‑matched supply‑demand platform: An innovative “one‑stop buyer‑seller matchmaking service” has been introduced, enabling visitors to submit procurement requests online in advance. Based on these needs, the organizers precisely match exhibitors, while dedicated matchmaking zones are set up at the physical exhibition site, realizing an efficient “online appointment, offline connection” model. Throughout the event, professional buyer delegations are organized, with dedicated personnel guiding negotiation sessions, ensuring more efficient purchasing and smoother collaboration.
• Deeply rooted in the Chinese powder market, with applications spanning multiple industries: The primary audience 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 high‑end materials such as battery slurries and polishing liquids to everyday applications like drug formulation and food processing, powder technology is ubiquitous, providing enterprises with a strategic platform to forge deep connections with upstream and downstream players in China’s powder industry value chain.
