Asia Ink Expo 2026
About the Exhibition
Asia Ink Expo (AIE) returns in 2026 as a leading annual event for the global ink and printing-technology industry. Scheduled for 15–17 October 2026 at the Guangzhou Aerotropolis Expo Center, AIE aims to unite the entire supply chain — from raw-material suppliers and equipment makers to ink producers and end users. As the industry accelerates toward sustainability and digitalization, AIE 2026 focuses on 'Green Development and Intelligent Manufacturing,' presenting eco-friendly water-based inks, UV/EB curing technologies, advanced grinding and dispersing equipment, and high-performance pigments and resins. Held in Guangzhou — the heart of China's Greater Bay Area and a global manufacturing hub — AIE offers international companies an unmatched chance to enter the Asian market, drawing thousands of professional buyers, decision-makers and industry experts, with concurrent forums and technical seminars providing market insight.

Dates: 15–17 October 2026. City: Guangzhou. Venue: Guangzhou Aerotropolis Expo Center. Dates are set by the organizer and can be revised, so check them against the official source before booking travel.

Most stands work in Chinese and only some teams speak English. We arrange a Chinese interpreter in Guangzhou: at the stands, in supplier negotiations and on factory visits.
Hotels near the venue sell out months ahead, so start planning well before 15–17 October 2026. Entry requires a visa: we explain the document requirements, and the Chinese consulate decides on issuance.
