AchemAsia is back: from 14 to 16 October 2025, the trade show in Shanghai will once again present itself as the leading platform for the Chinese process industry as well as the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors.

As the ‘International Expo and Innovation Forum for Sustainable Chemical Production’, the focus will be on innovative technologies for a climate-neutral future, including process technology, pharmaceutical technology and digitalisation (primarily using AI and robotics) as well as the rapid development of a hydrogen economy and hydrogen-based processes in the Chinese chemical industry.

AchemAsia was launched in 1989 as a spin-off of ACHEMA to fulfil the needs of the then still developing industry in China. Today, with over 400 exhibitors from more than 20 countries and regions, it is the central meeting place, where the latest technologies and innovations relevant to the process industry in China, Asia and worldwide are discussed and exchanged. Registration for exhibitors is now open.

“After the success of ACHEMA 2024, we are looking forward to returning to Shanghai in 2025 with AchemAsia. On site in China, we will once again offer the global process technology community an outstanding platform with a dedicated focus on the world's largest production site for chemical and pharmaceutical products”, says Dr Björn Mathes, CEO of DECHEMA Ausstellungs-GmbH, looking forward to organising the event in October 2025.

AchemAsia offers experts from Asia and around the world the opportunity to discuss and jointly develop ideas and solutions for a sustainable industry. The exhibition will be accompanied by a congress organised jointly by DECHEMA as well as regional and international partners in the form of satellite events. The congress is closely linked to the ACHEMA Innovation Themes Process, Pharma, Digital, Lab, Green and Hydrogen, while also focussing on the growth and challenges of the Chinese process industry. This guarantees a high level of relevance for the audience that is already active in the Chinese process industry or is interested in it.

International Expo and Innovation Forum for Sustainable Chemical Production is the international technology trade show and innovation forum for the chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries in China. With over 400 exhibitors from more than 20 countries and regions, the focus is on the exchange between equipment suppliers and users as well as between scientists and engineers. Since its first edition, AchemAsia has provided a platform for market access, for communication between customers, suppliers and potential co-operation partners, thus creating a basis for innovation in the Chinese process industry and beyond.

We have been organising AchemAsia in China for more than 35 years and ACHEMA in Frankfurt since 1920. AchemAsia takes place every three years and is organised by DECHEMA and CIESC (Chemical Industry and Engineering Society of China) in cooperation with numerous Chinese and international partners. The next AchemAsia will take place from 14 to 16 October 2025 in Shanghai, China.
