Automechanika has announced its Shanghai show next month will converge 15 pavilions representing overseas countries and regions, alongside four domestic clusters.
The pavilions will be unified by national or regional identity, highlighting the advantages of their locations in terms of manufacturing capabilities and the deployment and adoption of new mobility. Exhibitors in dedicated areas will cover various sectors of the supply chain across Halls 1.1 2.1, 5.1, 6.1 and 2.2 of the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai).
Ms Fiona Chiew, General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK), said: “Automechanika Shanghai’s global perspective, focus on emerging trends, and wide range of exhibits are key factors attracting international participants. This year, we are gearing up for the largest show to date, featuring over 7,000 exhibitors from 43 countries and regions, along with visitors from 180 countries and regions, of which the latter is based on last year’s results. This internationalism enriches experiences and objectives in marketing, trade, information exchange and education, enhancing the fair’s relevance and impact in the automotive industry.”
This year, Automechanika Shanghai has reportedly garnered interest from pavilion organisers, with representation from Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Poland, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, Taiwan, Türkiye, the UAE, the UK, and the US.
The German pavilion will feature 25 exhibitors covering parts and components, electronics, diagnostics and repair, and accessories.
The likes of Corim, Experica, FRA-BER, GART and Mego Srl will form the Italian pavilion with sustainable components, spare parts, industrial cleaning solutions, high-performance automotive parts and equipment, and precision metal components respectfully.
Elsewhere, Autotop Co Ltd, C&Lube Co Ltd, DH Lighting Co Ltd and Geobin Co Ltd will be part of the Korean pavilion, which will take up over 700 sqm of Hall 2.1.
Exhibitors at the Thai pavilion are set to amplify the advantages and capabilities of manufacturing in Southeast Asia, while the dedicated area for exhibitors from Türkiye will showcase diverse products, including raw petrochemicals from Alkim and Reksoil, as well as finished plastic parts from Pleksan.
Ms Li Zhang, Chairperson of China National Machinery Industry International Co, stated: “Each automotive manufacturing cluster in China has its own industrial foundations and geographical advantages, supported by R&D, testing and pilot projects that foster the growth of infrastructure for new energy and intelligent connected vehicles. Automechanika Shanghai offers a platform to exhibit the latest technological achievements, participate in product launches and technical seminars, and facilitate business matching, connecting industry resources and creating opportunities for technological collaboration and market expansion.”
Automechanika Shanghai has reportedly provided a launch pad for Chinese companies, debuting at the show through participation in regional pavilions at the fair. At the same time, wider supportive government initiatives have contributed to the development of various industrial hubs.
Today, China’s automotive industry has developed several manufacturing clusters throughout the country. Of these, four domestic pavilions will spotlight some key hubs from Yangtze River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (Jing-Jin-Ji) and Wuhan-Xiangyang-Shiyan- Suizhou (Wu-Xiang-Shi-Sui) automotive industrial clusters.
