Focusing on New Quality Productivity, Establishing the First New Materials Special Zone - Prospect of the Technology and Equipment Exhibition Area at the CIIE

The 7th China International Import Expo will be held from November 5th to 10th at the National Convention and Exhibition Center (Shanghai). The reporter learned from the China International Import Expo Bureau that this year's CIIE exhibition area presents a new idea, with an exhibition area of over 360000 square meters for enterprise commercial exhibitions. As one of the six major exhibition areas, the technical equipment exhibition area focuses on new quality productivity, gathers high-precision equipment, showcases cutting-edge technology, and sets up a new materials special zone to build an international exchange platform for promoting innovative development in the field of new materials.

The trend of digitization, intelligence, green and low-carbon is highlighted
According to Takao Yagi, Chairman and President of Toshiba (China) Co., Ltd., Toshiba will showcase a lithium-ion battery at this year's CIIE. The battery uses lithium titanate as the negative electrode material, which not only meets the requirements of large capacity and high power density, but also has the characteristics of long life and good low-temperature performance. It can be applied to new energy vehicles, AGV handling robots and other scenarios.
Focusing on the semiconductor, carbon neutrality, and digital fields, Japanese exhibitor Toshiba will showcase a series of technological achievements at this year's CIIE. Takao Yagi said, "The CIIE is not only a world stage that gathers global technology, products, and innovative services, but also a solid bridge that seamlessly connects China with the world

As an important part of the sustainable development loop, energy transformation is a crucial path to achieving carbon neutrality goals. Honeywell will showcase multiple low-carbon technology applications in industrial and emerging industries at this year's CIIE. The development prospects of China in the fields of digital economy and green low-carbon have brought broad development opportunities to Honeywell, "said Yu Feng, President of Honeywell China. Honeywell is committed to combining the three major business development trends of automation, future aviation, and energy transformation with China's high-quality development process, and promoting influential local innovation.

The first new material zone is set up to highlight the new quality productivity
The reporter learned from the China International Import Expo Bureau that this year's CIIE will set up a new materials zone, covering high value-added products located in the upstream of the global high-precision manufacturing industry chain, such as electronic materials, biomaterials, and special materials. Leading companies such as NVIDIA, Nippon Paint, and Edwan Testing will participate in the exhibition. Environmentally friendly flame-retardant plastics made from waste water buckets, discarded CDs, and Sony's original flame retardants will be showcased at the Sony booth. Their renewable material usage rate is as high as 99%, and they can be widely used in products such as televisions, cameras, mobile phones, travel bags, etc.
Schott, a German company that has been working in the field of special glass for over 140 years, will showcase a batch of innovative products in the technical equipment exhibition area of the expo. Chen Wei, General Manager of Schott Group in China, said, "Schott will showcase many special glass applications from the future, hoping to open up unlimited imagination of the audience and market for glassThe development of new quality productivity not only requires technological innovation, but also relies on changes in management and production methods. On the eve of the CIIE, a factory of French company Schneider Electric located in Putuo, Shanghai was awarded the title of "end-to-end lighthouse factory". Through a series of intelligent automation transformations, the factory's per capita production efficiency increased by 82% and order delivery time shortened by 67%.

New quality productivity has the characteristics of high technology, high efficiency, and high quality. We will introduce this transformation experience to more customers and partners through the CIIE platform Yin Zheng, Global Executive Vice President and China President of Schneider Electric, said.

Amplify the role of open platforms and share the benefits of openness

According to the China International Import Expo Bureau, there will also be a special booth in the technical equipment exhibition area of this year's CIIE - the Lingang Exhibition Area. Since its establishment 5 years ago, the Lingang New Area of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone has formed 138 breakthrough institutional innovation cases, including 70 national cases; Over 570 cutting-edge technology industry projects have been signed, involving an investment of approximately 620 billion yuan. The Lingang New Area has also become the "engine" and "growth pole" of Shanghai's economic development.

In the Lingang exhibition area, a group of representative foreign-funded enterprises such as Panshi, a high-performance material enterprise in the global powder metallurgy field, and Luanda, a global leader in autonomous driving technology, who have settled in the Lingang new area, will appear one by one, showcasing characteristic exhibits such as hydrogen engines and automotive radar.

The Lingang Exhibition Area will join hands with nearly 70 foreign-funded enterprises to participate in the CIIE, focusing on new quality productivity, building a bridge of innovation, and paving the way for cooperation Yang Jing, Chief Financial Officer of Lingang Group and Chairman of Lingang Overseas Company, said that she hopes to use the China International Import Expo as an influential open platform to provide new opportunities for foreign-funded enterprises to showcase their development achievements, expand their cooperation networks, and expand their development scale. She also hopes to build a stage for overseas enterprises with cooperation intentions to showcase and exchange ideas.

CIIE allows more foreign companies to share China“Xu Jian, Director and General Manager of Omron (China) Co., Ltd., who will participate in the CIIE for the seventh consecutive year, deeply feels the benefits of openness. She said, "The potential and opportunities of the Chinese market in areas such as digital transformation and health care are enormous. The Chinese government is also actively promoting higher levels of opening up to the outside world, providing a broader development space for foreign-funded enterprises
