The World Elastomer Technology and Engineering Forum will take place in Shanghai from September 13 to 16, 2026.

In recent years, China’s elastomer industry has achieved rapid growth and strong innovation, gaining wide recognition worldwide. As a global event initiated by China, the forum focuses on cutting-edge industrial development, aligns with the global “dual carbon” strategy and high-quality development goals. It promotes environmental protection, sustainable development and circular economy, while serving as a key platform to meet public demand for higher-quality life and advance global collaboration in the elastomer sector.

2026 marks the start of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan, which accelerates the integration of innovation, industry and talent chains, and fosters new growth engines such as advanced materials. Guided by the importance of industry-university-research cooperation, the forum upholds the core priorities of scientific and technological self-reliance, green and low-carbon transition, and the development of new quality productive forces. It integrates conference and exhibition to realize academic leadership, industrial empowerment, industry-university-research synergy and global win-win cooperation.

Under the theme New Quality-Driven · Boundless Synergy · Future Vision, the forum gathers global experts, scholars and entrepreneurs to discuss frontier fields including elastomer genetic engineering, AI-integrated innovation, advanced synthesis, intelligent upgrading, simulation technology, digital design and intelligent manufacturing.

Supported by the 24th International Exhibition on Rubber Technology, the forum strengthens basic research and accelerates the translation of scientific achievements into industrial applications.

We welcome all participants to engage in in-depth exchanges, enhance cooperation and jointly build a green, intelligent and high-quality future for the global elastomer industry.

Sincerely yours!
