Asia Pacific continues to lead the global coatings market, with China and the Greater Bay Area driving demand through urbanization, EV expansion and smart infrastructure. New environmental regulations taking effect in 2026 are accelerating adoption of low VOC and waterborne coatings, while AI and automation are reshaping production with greater efficiency. At the same time, innovations such as bio‑based resins and functional coatings are rapidly emerging. Positioned in Guangzhou at the heart of one of the world’s top ten economies, CHINACOAT2026 offers visitors first‑hand exposure to breakthroughs, policy insights and market trends, while building connections that open the doors to future opportunities.
