China (Suzhou) International Trenchless Technology Exhibition

The China International Trenchless Technology Exhibition (ITTC) is guided by the Trenchless Technology Professional Committee of the Geological Society of China (CSTT), the International Society for Trenchless Technology (ISTT), the Pipe Engineering Division of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), and the Center for Underground Infrastructure Research and Education (CUIRE) at the University of Texas at Austin. It is supported by the China Engineering Construction Standardization Association, the Pipeline Inspection and Rehabilitation Professional Committee of the China Municipal Engineering Association, Zhengzhou University, China University of Geosciences (Beijing), Chengdu University of Technology, Tongji University’s College of Civil Engineering, and other organizations.

The China International Trenchless Technology Exhibition (ITTC) reflects a period of rapid growth in China’s trenchless technology sector. The widespread application of trenchless technologies across municipal infrastructure, gas, telecommunications, petroleum, and other industries has driven significant advancements in this field.

The previous edition attracted more than 200 companies to register for participation; following a rigorous screening process, 61 companies showcased their latest products and technologies on-site. Among them, six made their debut at the exhibition, and approximately 85% of exhibitors presented dozens of physical prototypes. All vacant exhibition spaces were custom‑designed and fitted out. This year, domestically produced equipment demonstrated further improvements in performance, quality, and aesthetics.

In addition to drawing traditional international buyers from Russia, Malaysia, Singapore, Germany, India, Japan, and other countries, this edition also welcomed emerging market purchasers from Albania, Switzerland, Estonia, Mexico, Egypt, Kazakhstan, and beyond, who traveled to Suzhou. During the event, over 95% of participating entities concluded purchase‑sale agreements, with a substantial number of equipment items and exhibits retained for future acquisition. Overall, all exhibitors reported highly positive outcomes. (Copyright of this article belongs to Juzhan; unauthorized reproduction is prohibited.)

The China International Trenchless Technology Exhibition (ITTC) will continue to deepen international exchanges, enhance global participation and academic credibility, and strengthen the sharing of cutting-edge domestic and international technologies. The event will provide an even higher‑quality platform for enterprises, educational institutions, and research organizations to present and discuss products, technologies, and management practices, striving to establish a premier professional symposium brand in China and throughout Asia. The Organizing Committee calls upon all relevant stakeholders to unite their efforts and seize this opportunity presented by the industry’s robust growth, working together toward shared development.

The Exhibition Value of the China International Trenchless Technology Exhibition

• The Tianjin International Trenchless Technology Conference (ITTC) is Asia’s largest and most authoritative specialized event for trenchless technologies, widely regarded as a leading indicator of trends in China’s trenchless industry. Co‑organized under the joint guidance of the Chinese Society for Geotechnical Engineering’s Trenchless Technology Professional Committee (CSTT) and the International Society for Trenchless Technology (ISTT), the exhibition has been successfully held for twenty-eight editions and will mark its thirtieth anniversary in 2026, making it an indispensable annual highlight on the global trenchless industry calendar.
• The core value of participation lies in its dual‑pillar platform—combining exhibitions with seminars—to precisely connect domestic and international key procurement decision‑makers. Adopting an integrated “seminar + exhibition” format, the event brings together experts, technical representatives, equipment manufacturers, material suppliers, and engineering contractors from across the globe, offering exhibitors both technical exchange and business‑matching opportunities. In 2025, the exhibition attracted 3,931 registered professional visitors from 26 countries and regions, as well as from 34 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities nationwide, with total attendance reaching 8,122 over the three‑day period.
• The exhibition has established an international trade platform that spans the entire industry chain, aggregating global procurement resources. In addition to drawing traditional overseas equipment buyers from Russia, Malaysia, Singapore, Germany, India, Japan, and other markets, the event also welcomes emerging‑market purchasers from Albania, Switzerland, Estonia, Mexico, Egypt, Kazakhstan, and beyond. Over 95% of exhibiting companies secure purchase agreements, with a significant portion of equipment and exhibits retained on‑site. Exhibitors cover all segments of the industry chain, including horizontal directional drilling, pipe jacking machines, tunnel boring machines, and pipeline rehabilitation and inspection equipment, providing exhibitors with a one‑stop connection platform.
• Keeping pace with the trends toward “intelligentization” and “environmental sustainability” in trenchless technology, the exhibition has become a hub for deep integration among industry, academia, research, and end‑users. Exhibit offerings extend from conventional trenchless equipment to cutting‑edge solutions such as AI‑assisted construction systems, intelligent drilling navigation, pipeline inspection robots, and IoT‑based monitoring platforms, showcasing innovations in green construction techniques, low‑impact processes, and hydrogen‑powered pipeline installation. Concurrently, the exhibition hosts the International Trenchless Technology Symposium, featuring more than thirty high‑quality keynote presentations by international experts, covering topics such as HDD, pipe jacking, and pipeline renewal.
• For Chinese enterprises, this exhibition serves as a strategic gateway to expand domestic and international markets, connect with global resources, and showcase technological prowess. Each year, the event draws key procurement stakeholders—including government pipeline management agencies, project owners, design institutes, and construction contractors—enabling participating companies to leverage this platform to engage with buyers along the Belt and Road Initiative and in emerging markets, thereby deeply integrating into the global trenchless industry ecosystem and seizing early opportunities in the era of intelligent and green transformation.
