In the Chinese textile care industry, which is valued at around USD 22.7 billion, the annual show has established itself as the benchmark for buyers in multiple related sectors. These include laundry factories, dry cleaners, leather care shops, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, and schools. With last year’s show attracting 27,247 visitors, including 10% international buyers, 2024’s anticipated strong visitor flow has ensured a comprehensive range of products and services onsite, from washing equipment to chemicals, accessories, rental services, intelligent products, and more.
During previous editions, numerous renowned domestic and international brands gathered to unveil their latest products and technologies reflecting the entire spectrum. The fair will also welcome new exhibitors such as AiQi, Changjian, Devotion Boiler, Haishihua, Huayuan, Keling, Kiosoft, Kuaijie, Ruiying, SEKO, VANCH, Wanzl, Xingcheng, Yaojiang, Zhonglan, among others.
The number of registered exhibitors in the rental sector has reached a record-breaking 35, demonstrating the growing prominence of rental services in the industry. Exhibitors include Datamars, Finove, Huayuan, KAGA FEI, Kiosoft, NIUZHANGGUI, PORRAY, SENPU XUNJIE, Spotag, Tengyu Weaving, Thermopatch, and YALAN. As the industry undergoes digital transformation, rental service is steadily emerging as a new market trend. Digital technology is expected to drive even faster growth in the future market, and provide consumers with higher-quality and more convenient laundry services.
Covering multiple fields such as digital innovation in the laundry and dyeing industry, smart construction of hospital logistics, and shoes and clothing care, the show’s fringe programme aims to facilitate learning and discussions, and drive technological progress and industry development.
A highlight event is The 3rd China Laundry Industry Internet and Digital Innovation Conference, set to discuss the application of smart technology in diverse areas, including clothing laundry and dyeing, hotels and hospital textile laundry. In addition, The Management of Intelligent Logistics Solutions in Hospitals will focus on hot topics such as infection control solutions in hospital textile washing and digital development. Experts in hospital logistics management from top-level hospitals nationwide, technology providers and laundry companies will come together to explore these themes.
