China is the world’s largest paint and coatings market. The reforms China implemented over the past two decades have energized not only the competitiveness of domestic suppliers, but also the quality of their products.

For the past 17 years, CHINACOAT has provided an ideal platform for industry professionals to engage, interact and explore the growing market and discover insights into the diverse opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.

CHINACOAT2012 will take place from November 28-30 in the Guangzhou Int’l Convention and Exhibition Center (Pazhou Complex) in halls 9.2, 10.2, 11.2, 12.2, 10. 3 and 11. 3. It is a “must-visit” event offering an annual hub to industry players to learn the latest products and technologies as well as to find opportunities through face-to-face networking.

As this issue went to press, a total of 897 exhibitors from 29

countries/regions were booked to showcase their products and services in an exhibit area of more than 57,000 square meters.

The largest exhibiting group is from China. The more than 600 Chinese suppliers will provide international visitors with a convenient platform to source Chinese products at competitive prices. The exhibition also offers visitors the opportunity to purchase a wide range of products and services that are available from a variety of international companies.
