CHINAPLAS 2021 | SHOW PREVIEW
Chinaplas returns with a new location in Shenzhen
Covid-19 caused Chinaplas 2020 to be cancelled, but the show is back at a large new venue in Shenzhen – and is the only major plastics event to go ahead so far this year
With so many plastics exhibitions and conferences still being cancelled or postponed, it seems incredible that a trade show is even going ahead at the moment. Yet Chinaplas – one of the largest international plastics exhibitions – will take place in April. It is set to be the first major plastics show in more than a year. Last year’s Chinaplas was one of the first casualties of the emerging Covid-19 pandemic. The 2020 show was originally due to take place in Shanghai in April. The organisers pushed the date back to August, but later shelved the event entirely. Since then, many other major events – including Plast, NPE and Fakuma – have also been either cancelled or postponed. Now, the 34th edition of Chinaplas will take place on 13-16 April 2021. It will be held in Shenzhen for the first time. The annual event will now alternate between Shenzhen (in odd-num-

bered years) and Shanghai (even years). The last edition of the show – Chinaplas 2019 – occupied 250,000 sq m at its Guangzhou loca- tion. This year’s event will occupy 16 halls of the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Centre, covering 350,000 sq m of exhibition space. Show organiser Adsale Exhibition Services says around 3,600 exhibitors will be in Shenzhen, similar to the number at Guangzhou in 2019. “The Shenzhen convention centre is an ideal venue for a world-class trade show,” said Norris Chu, project director of Adsale. “Its 400,000 sq m of indoor exhibition space can alleviate the constraint of booth area we experienced in Guangzhou and support the show’s long-term growth. All 19 exhibition halls feature column-free structures and are located on the first floor – which is very suitable for displaying large-scale machines, and easy for visitors to navigate.”
