RubberTech 2026 Exhibition Review

      From September 15 to 17, the 24th China International Rubber Technology Exhibition (RubberTech China 2026) was successfully held at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre.

This year's exhibition covered an area of over 73,000 square meters and brought together 1,039 exhibitors from nearly 30 countries and regions around the world, as well as professional visitors from more than 100 countries and regions, with over 42,000 on-site visits. It is truly the annual event of the rubber industry.

Our Appearance: Focused on the Core, Face to Face with Customers

At this exhibition, Thailand Lida appeared at the Shanghai Rubber Exhibition with rubber raw materials. During the three-day exhibition, we had in-depth exchanges with domestic and overseas customers from subdivided fields such as tires, rubber products, seals, hoses and belts.

At the booth, our team provided technical answers and solution matching one by one for the problems customers encounter in actual production. Many customers expressed clear intention to cooperate with us.

On-site Observations: Three Major Trends Worth Noting

Based on the overall situation of this exhibition, we observed that the rubber industry is accelerating its evolution in the following directions:

First, intelligence and digitalization have become essential. AI process control, fully automatic molding, and digital management platforms are no longer concept displays, but have been widely implemented in actual processes such as mixing, molding, and testing.

Second, green and low-carbon has shifted from abonus point" to anentry ticket." Attention to low-emission chemicals, recyclable materials, and energy-saving equipment has increased significantly, and downstream customers' requirements for carbon footprint and environmental compliance are becoming increasingly specific.

Third, high-end applications are driving product upgrades. Fields such as new energy vehicles, rail transit, and high-end equipment are placing higher demands on the wear resistance, aging resistance, and lightweight performance of rubber products, forcing upstream materials and equipment to continuously iterate.

Although the three-day exhibition has ended, real cooperation has just begun. We thank every friend who visited our booth, and also thank our partners who have always followed and supported us. Lida will continue to deepen its work in the rubber industry, and with more reliable products and more practical services, work together with industry colleagues to promote the high-quality development of the rubber industry.

Looking forward to meeting again next time.
