CHINACOAT (The China International Exhibition for Coatings, Printing Inks and Adhesives), the premier event for the paint and coatings market in China, alternates annually between Guangzhou and Shanghai. CHINACOAT has been serving the global industry since it was first held in 1996. According to the show’s organizers, Sinostar International, the three-day event offers a definitive one-stop platform for visitors to source a full range of products, to gain exposure to new trends and to become more knowledgeable about the industry at large.

This year’s event will be comprised of more than 1,010 exhibitors from 30 countries who will display their new products and innovations on a gross exhibit area of more than 64,000 square meters in six exhibit zones.

CHINACOAT2016 will be held November 30 – December 3 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex (Canton Fair Complex). This annual event offers attendees the opportunity to learn about the latest products and technologies, as well as an opportunity network face-to-face with key industry personnel.

CHINACOAT2016 Guangzhou will have six exhibit zones: Zone 1 (Halls 9.3, 10.3 & 11/3) China Raw Materials, Zone 2 (Halls 9.2, 10.2 & 11.2) International Raw Materials, Zone 3 (Hall 11.2) International Machinery, Instruments and Services, Zone 4 (Hall 11.2) Powder Coatings Technology, Zone 5 (Hall 11.2) UV/EB Technology and Products and Zone 6 (Hall 13.2) China Machinery, Instruments and Services.
