From 25 to 28 September 2024 the international thermal process industry will meet at THERMPROCESS China presenting numerous technological innovations and a line-up of high-calibre side events in parallel with the world-leading Düsseldorf trade fairs for wire, cable and tube and pipes, wire and Tube China, at the Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC). In 2020, the total output value of China’s heat treatment industry was approximately USD17 billion, of which approximately USD 14 billion were accounted for by the sale of heat treatment processes and about USD 3 billion by the sale of heat treatment equipment and process materials (including USD 2 billion for heat treatment equipment and USD 1 billion for process materials).
In recent years, the number of companies and the market size of China’s heat treatment industry has grown steadily, and the demand for high-quality heat treatment equipment, instruments and application software has increased year by year. As a result of China’s “Dual Carbon” strategy, the Chinese heat treatment industry will vigorously promote the upgrading of equipment and technical research in the fields of energy conservation and eco-friendly manufacturing.
This trade fair for the Chinese market has formed part of the “Bright World of Metals” since 2020, thereby complementing the international THERMPROCESS portfolio in Düsseldorf. It is held every two years. With this trade fair, the organisers Messe Düsseldorf (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. and MC-CCPIT will again offer the international thermal process technology sector a comprehensive business platform for showcasing the latest products, technologies, solutions and services. The complete spectrum of thermal process technology will be on show: industrial furnaces, industrial heat treatment plants, plant construction, drive technology, firing technology, power and heat engineering, heat treatment and technology, heating systems, heat pumps and other accessories.

Red-hot side events come care of the Heat Treatment Technology Seminar
At the Heat Treatment Technology Seminar held during the trade fair, the Shanghai Heat Treatment Association will provide an overview of current developments and innovative approaches in heat treatment technologies. The agenda lists renowned speakers from the industry as well as lectures on the heat treatment of automotive parts and pipe-casting dies. The seminar offers industry experts an opportunity to exchange knowledge and network.
The latest THERMPROCESS China registered 332 companies participating from 14 countries. This means a 30% increase over the first event in 2020. More than 22,000 trade visitors from 53 countries travelled to Shanghai (figures include the concurrently held wire and Tube China). These included numerous buyers from the automotive industry, the chemical industry, the oil and gas industry, the energy sector, aviation and aerospace, and other user industries.
