ONE PLATFORM, CONNECTING DIVERSE INDUSTRIES AND APPLICATIONS
A defining feature of FILM & TAPE EXPO 2026 is its application-driven approach, connecting materials technologies with real-world sourcing needs across key growth sectors.
In new energy and battery applications, exhibitors will present battery separator films, aluminum-plastic composite films, electrode tab tapes, and other materials engineered to meet stringent safety and high-energy-density requirements.
The automotive sector will showcase TPU paint protection films, window heat-insulation films, color-change films, and advanced battery materials supporting vehicle weight reduction, electrification, and smart mobility.
For display and touch applications, technologies including TAC films, PMMA films, OCA optical adhesives, and optical films for backlight modules will address the evolving requirements of foldable displays, automotive displays, and polarization technologies.
The consumer electronics and semiconductor sectors will feature release films, protective films, PI films, thermal management materials, electronic tapes, wafer tapes, and other precision materials supporting smartphones, wearables, electronic components, advanced packaging, and semiconductor manufacturing.
Additional solutions cover PCB/FPC, die-cutting, printing and labeling, flexible packaging, medical applications, and industrial materials, enabling buyers to source across multiple categories at a single event.
A COMPREHENSIVE SUPPLY CHAIN, FROM MATERIALS TO PRODUCTION TOOLS
The exhibition will bring together the following key technology categories: functional films, industrial tapes, adhesives, chemical raw materials, converting equipment, and components.
Exhibits will include PET, BOPET, BOPP, TPU, optical films, protective and release films, PI films, battery and photovoltaic films, automotive films, electronic and semiconductor tapes, OCA and thermal-management adhesives, coating and laminating systems, die-cutting and slitting equipment, inspection and measurement technologies, and many other advanced manufacturing solutions.
With thousands of materials, equipment, and processing solutions expected on display, the event will provide international buyers with an efficient environment to compare technologies, identify suppliers, and explore new applications.
PROCUREMENT-FOCUSED BUSINESS MATCHING
Beyond the exhibition floor, FILM & TAPE EXPO 2026 will place special emphasis on measurable business outcomes. The exhibition’s Targeted Attendee Program (TAP) will facilitate more than 3,000 one-to-one business matching meetings, helping exhibitors connect with buyers whose needs align with their offerings.
Professional buyers are expected to attend from functional film and tape manufacturing, die-cutting, consumer electronics, automotive, display and touch, lithium batteries, semiconductors, PCB/FPC, printing, and packaging, creating direct opportunities for supplier sourcing and business collaboration.
30+ FORUMS EXPLORING THE NEXT WAVE OF MATERIALS INNOVATION
Alongside the exhibition, more than 30 conferences and technical forums will bring together industry experts and senior technology executives to discuss emerging opportunities in advanced PI films, automotive films, semiconductor adhesives, thermal management materials, battery materials, coating and die-cutting technologies, MLCC materials, robotics, and new material applications.
As part of ASIA MATERIAL WEEK, FILM & TAPE EXPO 2026 will also benefit from cross-industry connections spanning high-performance materials, adhesives, chemical raw materials, and CMF technologies.
By bringing together materials, technologies, applications, and buyers, FILM & TAPE EXPO 2026 aims to help global professionals discover new suppliers, identify emerging technologies, and unlock the next wave of growth across Asia’s advanced materials supply chain.
