Asia Ink Expo (AIE) 2027 will take place from May 26 to 28, 2027, at Guangzhou Aerotropolis Expo Center in Guangzhou, China. The exhibition, previously scheduled for October 2026, has been rescheduled to its new 2027 dates. AIE is a specialised international platform for the printing ink industry, bringing together ink manufacturers, raw-material suppliers, machinery companies, technology providers, distributors, research organisations and professional buyers from China and international markets.
The exhibition covers printing inks, pigments, resins, additives, solvents and other chemical raw materials alongside mixing, dispersing, grinding, filling, testing and production equipment. Its scope also includes technologies and services supporting commercial printing, packaging, labels and other applications where ink performance, colour consistency, production efficiency and environmental requirements are important. The event provides manufacturers and suppliers with an opportunity to present developments in formulations, production processes, materials and equipment to industry professionals across the printing-ink supply chain.
Asia Ink Expo also combines the exhibition floor with the Asia Ink Industry Development Conference and other professional activities designed to support technical exchange and business connections. Industry discussions, product presentations and networking opportunities connect manufacturers with distributors, buyers, end users and technical specialists while examining developments in sustainable materials, advanced formulations, production technology and changing market requirements. Organised by the Asia Coatings and Ink Federation (ACIF) and Guangdong Grandeur International Exhibition Group, the event serves as a focused meeting point for companies operating across Asia’s ink and printing industries.
