Thank You for Being Part of Lightweight Asia 2026

Dear exhibitors, visitors, guests, media partners and industry colleagues,

Thank you for joining and supporting the 21st ALUMINIUM CHINA, Lightweight Asia 2026, Copper China 2026, Magnesium China 2026, and the 2026 Shanghai International Metal Recycling Expo.

With the strong support and active participation of the industry, the five concurrent shows came to a successful close on 10 July. On behalf of the entire project team, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all exhibitors, professional visitors, industry associations, media partners and supporting organisations from China and around the world. Your trust and contribution made this year’s event a truly dynamic platform for the non-ferrous metals and lightweighting industries.

This year’s shows focused on key application sectors including automotive manufacturing, humanoid robotics, the low-altitude economy, metal packaging, 3C electronics and home appliances. The exhibition covered the full value chain of aluminium, copper, magnesium and other non-ferrous metals, including raw materials, high-performance alloys, precision processing, intelligent production equipment, and metal recycling.

A strong line-up of concurrent forums and technical seminars also brought together association leaders, technical experts and leading enterprises to discuss new materials, smart manufacturing, automotive lightweighting, robotics applications, low-carbon development, circular resource systems and global industry collaboration. These discussions offered valuable insights into industry trends, technology development and the future direction of the market.

Building on more than two decades of industry experience, the five-show platform continued to connect domestic industrial clusters with global market opportunities. Through business meetings, technical exchanges, factory visits and product showcases, the event helped strengthen supply-demand connections, cross-border collaboration and high-quality development across the non-ferrous metals value chain.

Looking ahead, we will remain committed to supporting the industry’s transition towards higher-end, smarter, greener and more international development. Guided by innovation, sustainability, circularity and intelligent manufacturing, the shows will continue to serve as a professional platform for display, exchange, resource connection and business cooperation.

In 2027, the event will return with a new upgrade at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre, expanding to Halls E1–E7 with a larger scale, enhanced services and an even stronger industry platform.

We look forward to welcoming you back to Shanghai from 7–9 July 2027 as we continue to explore new opportunities, create new value and shape the future of the non-ferrous metals industry together.

See you next year.
