2025 China International Coatings Expo & The 23rd China International Coatings Exhibition
In the global coatings industry landscape, the Asia-Pacific region occupies the most significant position, accounting for over 50% of total global coatings output. It has become the undisputed core of the international coatings market.
Since 2009, China’s total coatings production has consistently ranked first worldwide. Over more than a decade of sustained growth, China has demonstrated not only scale expansion, but also strong industrial vitality and structural competitiveness.
Today, China is:
- The world’s largest coatings production base
- The largest coatings consumption market
- A key hub for raw material supply
- A major center for coatings equipment manufacturing
- A leading platform for coatings R&D and innovation
The country’s highly concentrated enterprise ecosystem, complete industrial chain, and continuous inflow of advanced technologies and market resources have positioned it as one of the most dynamic and influential regions in the global coatings industry.
A Premier Global Industry Platform
The 2025 China International Coatings Expo & The 23rd China International Coatings Exhibition stands as one of the most important events in the global coatings sector.
Closely aligned with industry trends, the exhibition:
- Reflects the latest technological breakthroughs
- Showcases cutting-edge innovation applications
- Builds a global bridge for industry exchange

As coatings technology continues to evolve toward higher performance, environmental sustainability, and advanced functionality, the exhibition remains a barometer of industry transformation.
Growing Importance of Silicone Materials in Coatings
With ongoing industry upgrading, silicone resins, along with their curing agents and functional additives, are playing an increasingly critical role in coatings formulation and performance enhancement.
Applications include:
- High-temperature resistant coatings
- Weather-resistant architectural coatings
- Anti-corrosion systems
- Industrial protective coatings
- Electronic and specialty functional coatings
Silicone materials have become key enablers for improving:
- Durability
- Thermal stability
- Hydrophobicity
- Electrical insulation
- Chemical resistance
Recognizing this trend, Beijing Guohua New Materials Technology Research Institute and the Silicon Industry Green Development Alliance will jointly establish a dedicated:
“Silicone Materials Exhibition Zone”
during the 2025 China International Coatings Expo.
This specialized area will provide:
- A focused and professional display platform
- Targeted industry matchmaking opportunities
- Enhanced brand visibility for silicone enterprises
- Direct access to coatings manufacturers and formulators
The initiative aims to accelerate cross-sector collaboration and further promote the integration of advanced silicone materials into high-performance coatings systems.
