Exhibition Introduction
China International Adhesive Tape and Film Expo 2025 (TF-EXPO CHINA) will take place from September 17 to 19, 2025, at the Shanghai New International Expo Center. Co-hosted by the China Adhesives and Tape Industry Association and CCPIT Sub-Council of Chemical Industry, this landmark event has become the top industry platform for adhesive tapes, functional films, die-cutting materials, and label substrates over the past two decades. The expo highlights the latest technological advances, equipment, and materials, serving as a critical hub for B2B trade, innovation exchange, and global sourcing.
In 2024, the expo welcomed 635 exhibitors and 31,000+ visitors from 52 countries, and 2025 is projected to exceed 40,000 square meters in scale with 600+ leading domestic and international companies. The exhibition will attract buyers and decision-makers from high-value sectors such as electronics, mobile devices, batteries, automotive, home appliances, medical, packaging, and building materials. Industry professionals will benefit from on-site technical seminars, cutting-edge showcases, and tailored matchmaking sessions aimed at accelerating collaboration and product innovation. With growing demand across emerging applications, TF-EXPO 2025 offers unparalleled access to sourcing, knowledge, and partnerships within the adhesive and film supply chain.
