2026 China (Shanghai) International High-End Special Steel Industry Exhibition
Date: 2026, December 3-5
Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Centre
Exhibition Profile:
Special steel is the cornerstone material of high-end manufacturing and the core foundation supporting national strategic industries such as aerospace, nuclear power energy, deep-sea engineering, new energy vehicles, high-end equipment, and national defense and military industries. Its technical level directly determines a country's core competitiveness in manufacturing and the security of its industrial chain. With the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry, the in-depth implementation of the “Dual Carbon” strategy, and the comprehensive advancement of the “15th Five-Year Plan” for new material innovation, the domestic special steel industry is accelerating its departure from low-end homogeneous competition and fully moving towards a new stage of high-quality development characterized by high purity, high performance, customization, and green intelligence. The domestic substitution of high-end special steel and collaborative innovation across the entire industrial chain have become the main themes of industry development.
As the core hub of high-end manufacturing in the Yangtze River Delta and a highland for global trade and advanced material industries, Shanghai brings together a vast number of end-user procurement enterprises in equipment manufacturing, aviation support, new energy, automotive, and marine engineering. It possesses a complete industrial chain for metallurgy and new materials, as well as international trade resources, making it naturally the core carrier for exchange, trade, and technical docking in the high-end special steel industry. The 2026 China (Shanghai) International High-End Special Steel Industry Exhibition is scheduled to be held from December 3-5, 2026, at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre. Based on the perspective of the entire industrial chain, it integrates leading domestic and foreign special steel enterprises, special smelting equipment manufacturers, alloy raw material suppliers, heat treatment and precision processing supporting enterprises, scientific research institutes, end-user procurement groups, industry associations, and investment and financing institutions. It aims to create a top-tier professional industry event integrating product display, technical seminars, trade negotiations, project cooperation, and achievement transformation.
