Exhibition Introduction
The Exhibition Value of the Jinan Water Expo (JINNOC WATER EXPO) in Shandong
- A flagship UFI‑certified event for the northern water treatment industry, and a professional exchange platform that has been deeply rooted in the Shandong market for 27 years. First launched in 1999, the Jinan International Water Treatment Expo (JINNOC WATER EXPO) is one of the key exhibitions vigorously nurtured by the Jinan Municipal Government. Officially accredited by the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI), it stands as one of the few specialized water‑treatment expos in northern China that has been held continuously without interruption. Anchored in Jinan—the “City of Water”—the show serves the Bohai Rim economic zone and the broader northern market, closely aligning with the demands driven by the new normal of economic development, the transition from old to new growth drivers, and industrial restructuring and upgrading. It is widely recognized within the industry as a leading indicator of water‑treatment sector development in northern China and a core platform for companies seeking to expand into the northern market.
- A one‑stop showcase covering the entire industry value chain. The expo delves deeply into both upstream and downstream segments of the water‑treatment industry while broadly extending its product range, achieving comprehensive coverage of industrial pure water, domestic water purification, urban water supply and drainage, wastewater treatment, building water supply and drainage, as well as related engineering technologies, instruments, pumps, valves, pipelines, sterilization, disinfection, and other supporting components. The exhibition areas are organized into eight core sections: membrane and water‑treatment technologies; end‑use water purification and hydrogen‑related products; environmentally friendly water‑treatment solutions; equipment and ancillary systems for sewage and wastewater treatment; urban water supply and drainage along with smart water management; pumps, pipes, and valves; building water supply and drainage; and integrated smart environmental water‑management systems. Specialized zones highlight cutting‑edge innovations, municipal water‑engineering projects, and energy‑saving technologies[ihcitation:2].
- Precise alignment with northern market demand and national key buyers and industry‑chain resources. For the 2026 edition, the expo is expected to span 100,000 square meters, bringing together over 1,000 exhibiting companies and attracting more than 80,000 professional visitors. At the previous edition, the total exhibition space reached 40,000 square meters, with 682 exhibitors showcasing over 10,000 water‑treatment solutions, welcoming 46,000 professional attendees, and generating on‑site transactions worth RMB 700 million. The exhibitor roster includes domestic industry leaders such as Xinxing Cast Pipe, Southern Pump Industry, and SanChuan Smart, alongside internationally renowned brands from around the globe. Concurrent with the expo, more than twenty industry forums and technical seminars will be held, offering insights into emerging trends and innovative approaches.
- Unique value for Chinese enterprises—strategic engine for deepening presence in the northern water‑treatment market. Shandong is a major province in the water‑treatment sector, boasting a complete industrial ecosystem—from water‑supply and drainage groups and environmental technology firms to equipment manufacturers. Hosted by the Shandong Urban Water Supply and Drainage Association and the Water‑Treatment Equipment Professional Committee of the Shandong Household Appliance Industry Association, the expo enjoys robust support from authoritative bodies such as the Institute of Water and Air Purification Technology under the China International Science and Technology Promotion Association and the Professional Committee for Water‑Purification Equipment of the China Quality Inspection Association, as well as active participation from the Jinan Water Group. Exhibiting companies can leverage this platform to connect with northern water‑resource networks, showcase proprietary technologies, expand market channels, and seize early opportunities in the ongoing upgrade of the water‑treatment industry.
- Frontier of technological innovation and industry trends. Aligned with the expo’s guiding principles of “innovation and upgrading,” and set against the backdrop of efforts to foster domestic economic circulation, the event focuses on cutting‑edge topics such as membrane technologies, smart water management, hydrogen‑related products, and energy‑saving innovations. Exhibiting companies can gain valuable insights into industry trends toward “intelligence, low carbon, and multifunctionality.” Concurrently, more than twenty industry forums will bring together experts, corporate leaders, and policymakers to engage in in‑depth discussions on critical issues—including technological innovation in water treatment, smart water‑management initiatives, and opportunities for the water‑treatment sector under the dual‑carbon goals—providing exhibitors with strategic windows into evolving policy directions, technical standards, and market trends.
- Jinan’s locational and industrial advantages. Held at the Shandong International Convention and Exhibition Center (No. 1 Rizhao Road, Huaiyin District, Jinan), Jinan—capital of Shandong Province and a central city in the Bohai Rim economic zone—is a vital transportation hub in northern China. With Shandong persistently advancing water‑conservation, efficient resource utilization, and pollution prevention, demand for water‑treatment equipment remains robust. Leveraging Jinan’s strategic position as a regional center for the northern water‑treatment industry, the JINNOC WATER EXPO offers exhibitors a premier platform to connect with both local and national water‑treatment markets.
