With China's entry into WTO for many years, the plastics and rubber industries have been developed quickly and attracted worldwide attention. Currently, China is in a crucial period of the "11th Five-Year plan", with sustained development to a powerful country in which plastics and rubber industries have become one of the pillar industries and enjoyed a speedy growth.

To cater for the growing market demand, both local and overseas enterprises press for high quality machines and raw materials to increase productivity and enhance product quality.
Added to this, the increasing role of plastics and rubber in our daily lives has created infinite business opportunities for plastics and rubber machine makers and materials suppliers.

Industrial users of different sectors including automobile, building and construction, electronics and electrical appliances, information technology and telecommunication, packaging, food and beverage and toys, are keen for seeking an ideal sourcing platform for machines and materials. All these create a favorable environment for Chinaplas to grow in show scale, contents and visitors' quantity and quality.
In 2008, Chinaplas will break the distinctive record in show scale and reach up to 120,000 sqm, attaining a 30% increase in exhibition area of the last Shanghai edition.
