The 19th Guangzhou (China) International Surface Finishing, Electroplating and Coating Exhibition (SF EXPO) and the 2026 International (Guangzhou) Coatings Industry Expo (ICIE) will take place from June 10–12, 2026, at the Canton Fair Complex in Guangzhou, China.

As one of the most influential professional exhibitions in South China, Guangzhou SF EXPO & ICIE continues to serve as a key platform connecting global suppliers with China’s rapidly growing surface finishing and coatings market.

With nearly two decades of dedication to the surface finishing, electroplating, and coatings sectors, Guangzhou SF EXPO & ICIE has developed into a highly specialized industry exhibition. Each year, the show features more than 500 exhibitors, showcasing a full range of materials, products, technologies, and equipment across the entire industrial value chain.

Guangzhou SF EXPO & ICIE is approved by UFI – The Global Association of the Exhibition Industry, meeting international standards in exhibition quality, scale, and organization.

The expo is jointly organized with several of China’s most authoritative industry organizations, including the Surface and Interface Science Branch of the China Industrial Cooperation Association, the Guangdong Electroplating Industry Association, the Shanghai Coating Industry Association, and the Coating Industry Association of Guangdong Province, ensuring strong industry endorsement and high-quality participation.

Located in South China—one of China’s most dynamic manufacturing hubs—Guangzhou SF EXPO & ICIE offers exhibitors direct access to regions where both the production and application of surface engineering and coatings are highly concentrated.

Through targeted buyer invitation programs, exhibitors will connect with over 30,000 professional buyers from the automotive, electronics, home appliances, hardware, new energy, and other downstream industries, enabling more efficient and high-value business matchmaking.
