The next “Chinaplas” (www.chinaplasonline.com) trade fair, held in Guangzhou / China from 16-19 May 2017, will focus on “Intelligent Manufacturing, High-tech Materials and Green Solutions.” Organised by Adsale Exhibition Services (Hong Kong / China; www.adsale.com.hk), the mega plastics exhibition will focus on a wide range of end user markets, from automotive to construction, 3D printing, medical and E&E applications. As in the past, the fair will pay particular homage to “green” solutions, which will be showcased this year in the packaging segment.

Last year’s Chinaplas drew close to 150,000 visitors, about 40,000 of them from abroad. Visitors interested in a free admission and other benefits can pre-register until 1 March 2017 by visiting www.chinaplasonline.com/prereg.
