Successful analytica China 2020 Concludes with Record Attendance
also marks the 19th year the brand has entered the Chinese market. Many companies regard analytica China as an ideal platform for new product releases, making it an important impetus for the sustainable development of the industry. The show this year again featured new flagship products from major companies.
analytica China 2020 achieved records in the exhibitor area and exhibitor numbers.
analytica China 2020 came to a successful conclusion on November 18, 2020 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. The show brought together 1,009 exhibitors (2018: 950) and 112 represented companies and partners. 23,652 professional visitors attended. With six exhibition halls, eight special areas, and a total space of over 60,000 m2 46,000 m2
(2018:
), analytica China 2020 presented more than 1,000 new instruments and equipment, innovative technologies and cutting-edge solutions. The highlight of the show, the 2,000 m2
Live Lab and Clinical Lab, attracted numerous professional
visitors. Professional lectures and high-quality seminars offered insights into industry hot topics and attracted 3,447 professional audiences from different fields.
As the tenth edition of analytica China, the show this year
Steve Vermant, the Managing Director of Merck Life Sciences China and Vice President of Merck Research Solutions, enjoyed the show: “analytica China is a very important show, and we meet here every two years. At the show, we can not only display our new products, but also learn about related fields, including laboratories and testing instruments. The year 2020 is very challenging, but there are still many visitors and exhibitors at the show, showing the strong resilience of this industry. I enjoy this show very much and hope it will be a complete success.”
“We think the show is particularly suitable for us, especially for learning from and communicating with other industries. As the Covid-19 epidemic is going on, it is very valuable that we have so many visitors,” Biao Wang, Marketing Director of Illumina (Greater China) commented.
Apart from the six well-received exhibitions areas (Life Sciences, Diagnostics and Biotechnology; Analysis; Quality Control; General Laboratory Equipment, Laboratory Construction and Safety; Food Safety Equipment and Technology; Environmental Protection Equipment and Technology), analytica China 2020 included two new areas for the first time: the Laboratory Automation and Informatization area and the Core Laboratory Equipment Parts and Components area, bringing together innovative laboratory products and R&D technical solutions that lead to smarter laboratories.
More than 1,000 new products were launched at the show.
Nearly 200 academic lectures were given along with the exhibition, featuring discussion on the frontier development of laboratories, new life science technologies, clinical diagnosis, food safety, environmental monitoring and testing, chemistry and chemical engineering, and biomedicine. Many well-known experts and researchers presented the forums and gave insightful lectures.
analytica China 2022 will be held on 14-16 November 2022 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.

Funding Boost for Oxfordshire Science Laboratories Other investments at RAL include:
£140,000 to the Deuterium-Deuterium neutron source alongside the already-planned Deuterium-Tritium source at ISIS Neutron and Muon Source to support work on dark matter detection, dosimetry and solid state neutron detection.
• £900,000 in high performance computing infrastructure to support the data analysis from the UK’s large multidisciplinary facilities, the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source, the Diamond Light Source and the Central Laser Facility.
• £500,000 towards the completion of the thermal vacuum satellite test chambers in STFC’s RAL Space, to support the test and calibration of larger space flight instruments for both industrial and academic customers.
Scientists in CLF’s Octopus imaging cluster
The UK Government has allocated up to £8million in laboratory upgrades and a further £13 million in science campus improvements at the Science and Technology Facilities Council’s (STFC) Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) based near Didcot. The funding is part of a major £213 million government investment programme announced on January 6 for upgrading the UK’s scientific infrastructure.
The investment at RAL includes £1 million for a Strontium Source Laboratory to allow work on cold-atom sensors and instruments. This will support work on quantum projects recently recognised as a future priority infrastructure for the UK and act as a local testing ground for larger-scale devices to be delivered by RAL departments.
Dr Neil Geddes, STFC Director of National Laboratories, said: “This investment will push forward research across a wide range of science and technology projects, reflecting the breadth of the work undertaken at RAL. It further strengthens the Laboratories’ key role at the heart of the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus.”
£3 million will also update precision machining equipment to support a wide range of science and technology programmes ranging from quantum sensors to components for space satellites.
Large Space Test Chamber - RAL Space
• £470,000 for an imaging capability for fast freezing to support bio-science experiments at cryogenic temperatures on the OCTOPUS imaging cluster at the Central Laser Facility.
These new facilities will ensure that STFC’s Didcot-based campus will remain at the forefront of global research and show the UK is the best place in the world for scientists, researchers and entrepreneurs to live and work.

Professor Marisa Martin-Fernandez, Octopus Group Leader, Central Laser Facility, STFC, said: “Using a combination of microscopy techniques enables us to understand much more about biological systems. The Harwell campus is contributing to the UK’s efforts in this area by bringing together the world class imaging facilities at the Central Laser Facility and Diamond/eBIC. The imaging system to support rapid freezing sample preparation will enable us to stop biological processes at critical stages before imaging the samples with multiple microscopy techniques. This will provide new insights into the workings of human cells in health and disease.”
The funding also includes up to £13 million investment in the wider Harwell science campus including support on improved environmental sustainability, setting up of more electric car charging ports, the installation of solar panels, and improved site landscaping and welfare facilities.
