Green Printing in Focus: 2021 China Printing New Materials & Ink Procurement Fair Set for Zhongshan, Dec 28-30

South China's high-profile ink and printing show returns, with industry leaders sharing new perspectives on the sector's development.

As the global economy grows and technology advances, worldwide ink manufacturing output has continued to rise. Annual global ink production is about 4.2 million to 4.5 million tonnes, with China contributing roughly 17% of the total and now ranking as the world's largest ink manufacturing country. However, compared with developed regions and countries such as Europe, the United States and Japan, China's ink industry—especially energy-saving and eco-friendly inks—got a later start. Advanced green ink materials can raise technical content, product quality and stability, and better meet modern printing's demand for high speed, no pollution and low consumption. Promoting eco-friendly inks, upgrading the industry's technical and energy-saving standards, and strengthening public environmental awareness are therefore essential for China's ink industry to achieve long-term growth.

To support sustainable growth in China's ink printing market, the organizers are starting in Zhongshan. The 2021 China Printing New Materials and New Technologies Exhibition and 2021 China Ink Procurement and Trading Fair, jointly hosted by the Zhongshan Printing and Packaging Industry Association and Guangdong Hongwei International Exhibition Group Co., Ltd., will take place from December 28-30 at the New World International Convention and Exhibition Center in Gangkou, Zhongshan.

Centered on the theme 'Environmentally Friendly Inks, Green Printing', the event will use five modules—forum discussions, product displays, supply-demand matching, business negotiations and trading, and business opportunity releases—to build an authoritative and forward-looking technical exchange platform for the ink sector. It aims to become a preferred destination for companies to launch new products and promote their image, while accelerating the domestic ink industry's growth.

Leading Brands Converge as Hundreds of Companies Gather

The exhibition brings together premium brands in printing new materials and technologies, ink products, and ink raw materials/auxiliaries, covering well-known companies across the entire ink printing supply chain. Dozens of brand sponsors and advisory units, hundreds of new products and many prominent brands will be on display. By combining multi-dimensional spaces with new exhibits and experiential activities, the show integrates networking, product experience, business talks, cultural communication and brand promotion, creating a wider platform for manufacturers, distributors, buyers and consumers.

Special Events Expand the Ink Industry's Network

More than 20 new product launch events and over 10 themed forums will be staged. Representatives and experts from professional industry associations, printing manufacturers, government management departments, and research institutes and universities will speak on current printing standards, industry pain points and other topics, offering in-depth analysis of the sector's current state. In parallel, events such as the 'Top Ten High-Quality Ink Suppliers' and the 'Smart Printing Award Ceremony' will form an annual gathering that combines trade, display and exchange, and brand promotion.

Between activities, following the principle of 'not forgetting old friends and making new ones', the organizing committee will set up several hot-topic exchange zones on site. These will provide a private space for participants, pave the way for exhibitors' future customer acquisition, and help negotiators reach win-win cooperation.

Market Focus: Tender and Auction Events Launch Strongly

Focused on hot domestic ink printing markets and bringing together quality resources from China's ink printing supply chain, the event will feature large printing enterprises holding grand tender meetings on site. It will also connect many well-known domestic ink brands for premium ink auctions. During the event, no fewer than three companies will hold high-quality ink auctions each day, passing benefits to printing enterprises and fully linking upstream and downstream resources to precisely match supply and procurement needs.

Beyond the auctions, additional benefits will add further value: the organizing committee will provide 1,000 free guest rooms, and high-quality buyers will enjoy free hotel accommodation.

Online Sourcing: A Procurement Platform That Never Closes

Powered by Hongwei's independently developed Cloud Exhibition Power system, the platform uses 3D real-scene scanning, AI digital technology, big data precision marketing and intelligent display terminals to showcase enterprise strength in digital form. It creates a procurement platform that breaks through time and space limits and remains open 365 days a year. This can effectively reduce procurement costs for participants, enable dual-track online and offline linkage, help companies experience offline and source online, and build a free bridge for customized trade matching between enterprises and buyers.

41 industry associations and more than 200 industry media outlets will present livestreaming coverage on site, while several well-known livestreaming platforms will attend. Through livestreaming, the event aims to expand the visual economy effect, attract more young audiences and further raise attention for the exhibition.

Ink world, coloring Zhongshan. From December 28-30, the 2021 China Printing New Materials and New Technologies Exhibition and 2021 China Ink Procurement and Trading Fair is expected to become the most popular ink printing industry exhibition in South China by the end of 2021, adding color to the sector and opening up new market prospects.

Only by staying at the forefront of the ink industry can the event deliver a more exciting experience to participants. We look forward to welcoming people from across the ink printing supply chain to exhibit and attend, explore development opportunities together, and contribute to integrated and innovative progress in the ink printing industry.
