SHANGHAI, April 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On April 19–20, 2026, the global plastics
and rubber industry’s top echelon gathered in Shanghai for the CHINAPLAS Media Day,
co-hosted by Adsale Exhibition Services and CommNow China. As the definitive curtain-
raiser to the main exhibition, this event brought together senior executives from
eight industry titans. More than just a press conference, the session acted as a
strategic barometer, revealing the high-tech roadmaps, sustainability breakthroughs,
and "China-focused" priorities set to reshape the manufacturing landscape.

Evonik opened with a bold vision, "Shaping an Infinite Future," unveiling material
solutions for next-generation industries like NEVs, the low-altitude economy, and
green hydrogen.

Chambroad Group showcased a sophisticated portfolio tailored for the rigorous demands
of low-altitude economy, NEVs, medical technology, and specialized aviation, emphasizing
the power of collaborative innovation in high-growth sectors.

Sustainability was the core theme for BASF, which presented its "Carbon Exploration
Journey." By focusing on the full lifecycle of materials in the footwear and textile
industries, BASF proved that performance and environmental stewardship are now twin
engines of value-chain growth.

On the machinery front, ENGEL Group addressed production pain points through its
dual-brand strategy (ENGEL and WINTEC). Their presentation tackled the primary pain
points in modified plastics injection molding, offering integrated, intelligent 
solutions for sectors ranging from automotive & packaging to medical, LSR and micro-
foaming. ENGEL emphasized how smart production can simultaneously drive down costs
and carbon footprints.

Kingfa highlighted the intersection of materials and intelligence. Their display
covered an expansive range of applications, including consumer electronics, smart
home systems, NEVs, low-altitude applications, and the frontier of "embodied intelligence"(
robotics). Leveraging its unique "global-local" supply framework, Kingfa continues
to set the pace for high-quality growth in the modified plastics sector through 
deep technical expertise.

Syensqo introduced specialty polymers essential for the "twin transitions"—digital
and green—targeting critical nodes in the supply chains of NEVs, green hydrogen,
electronics, healthcare, and semiconductors.

ARBURG chose this stage for the Asia debut of its Allrounder Trend electric series,
combining high-end German engineering with optimized ownership costs for the competitive
electronics and NEV markets.

In a major bio-based breakthrough, CovationBio launched Xatryx®, a non-food-based
bio-PTMEG. This "drop-in" replacement for fossil-based alternatives allows manufacturers
to slash carbon footprints without any process adjustments, marking a milestone 
for the circular economy.
