CHINACOAT 2026: Guangzhou Hosts Asia’s Coatings Supply Chain

CHINACOAT 2026 will be held from November 11–13, 2026 at Area A of the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou. The official page highlights CHINACOAT’s long role as a global coatings platform and notes that the 2024 Guangzhou edition welcomed 1,325 exhibitors and 42,070 trade visitors from 113 countries and regions. 

For coatings raw-material suppliers, CHINACOAT remains one of Asia’s most important sourcing platforms. It connects resin producers, pigment suppliers, additive companies, equipment providers, coatings manufacturers and technical buyers across China and global markets.

The Guangzhou edition is especially relevant for South China’s manufacturing base, including furniture coatings, packaging coatings, industrial coatings, electronics-related coatings and construction materials. Suppliers with low-VOC, waterborne, powder coating, UV/EB, functional additive and sustainability-focused technologies will find strong positioning opportunities.

This event is also useful for tracking where China’s coatings industry is moving: greener chemistry, stronger localization, higher formulation performance and more efficient production.
