Elkem participated in the 7th China International Import Expo, one of the world's biggest trade fairs. Under the theme "Exploring New 'Silicone' Paths," we showcased our cutting-edge technologies and material innovations across four key areas: smart mobility, life sciences, smart cities, and comfortable living 🔋 One of the highlights of the convention was celebrating our 120-year anniversary 🎉 We marked the occasion with a ceremony at our booth and were honoured to be joined by Marianne Sivertsen Næss, Norway's Minister of Fisheries and Ocean Policy, Vebjørn Dysvik, the Norwegian Ambassador to China, and Tobias F. Svenningsen, Norwegian Consul General in Shanghai. Sandy Chen, SVP of Elkem Silicones, and Laurent Dumont, Vice President of Strategic Business for Elkem Silicones, presented some of the company's history and achievements, highlighting how far Elkem has come since its early beginnings as a startup in 1904. Now a global leader in silicon-based solutions with over 7400 employees, including 550 researchers, worldwide, we're supplying and enabling the #DigitalTransition and #GreenTransition while developing groundbreaking solutions for a more sustainable future 🌱 Our R&D centre in Shanghai, for example, is dedicated to developing specialised silicones for hybrid and electric vehicles 🚗 and our expansion project at the Xinghuo plant has greatly increased production capacity and product quality, while reducing emissions. The key to our success? 💡 "Our spirit of innovation and willingness to pioneer new technology," Sandy told attendees at our ceremony.

Would you like to be part of a promising market? Then join us at #CentralAsiaPlastWorld - the most important trade fair for plastics & rubber in Kazakhstan and Central Asia. The show will take place June 26 to 28, 2024, at the Atakent Exhibition Center in Almaty. Why #Kazakhstan? Kazakhstan is considered the most economically developed country in Central Asia, with a gross domestic product of 193 billion US dollars. The country is aiming for greater industrialization in the coming years and is experiencing high growth, e.g. in the automotive industry. Imports of machinery and equipment as well as chemical products are booming. For this reason, annual growth of around six percent in plastics consumption is expected in the coming years. #CentralAsiaPlastWorld is a member of the "Global Gate" service brand. Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, which organises K – The World's No.1 Trade Fair for Plastics and Rubber, bundles its global business in this sector under this brand. Central Asia Plast World is the first platform of the "Global Gate" family in Central Asia. Interested?

A successful ITMA Asia 2024 closed its door. Stephan Kehry from Erhardt+Leimer GmbH summarizes as follows: "ITMA ASIA 2023 showed two things: the great potential of Asian textile machine manufacturers on the one hand and the lack of customers on the other. One year later, the current edition of ITMA ASIA confirmed the supremacy of the Asian competition, although more customers seemed to have found joy in investing again. Accordingly, Erhardt+Leimer's expectations in the run-up to the trade fair were rather muted, but were raised to a cautiously optimistic level after the first few days. The 90m² stand was well attended for almost the entire time and the almost 20 employees of the long-established German company had their hands full answering the enquiries of well over 200 visitors and presenting appropriate solutions in the fields of automation, sensor technology and energy saving. This trade fair has once again impressively demonstrated that quality and innovation are still the main factors for not only surviving against an ever-increasing competition, but also for emerging from it stronger." #TextileIndustry #TextileMachinery #ITMA

"Join Alex on an exclusive tour of the 135th Canton Fair, held in the bustling city of Guangzhou, China. This year's event is shrouded in anticipation as tensions rise between the U.S. and China, with America considering a ban on TikTok and heightened scrutiny on business engagements with Chinese companies. Amidst these geopolitical shifts, questions loom: Could this be the last opportunity for American buyers to explore and place orders at one of the largest trade shows in the world? The United States and Europe are considering implementing tariffs on New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) imported from China. This move comes as both regions aim to protect their domestic auto industries from the competitive pricing of Chinese-made NEVs. With China's rapid advancements in electric vehicle technology and significant government subsidies, their NEVs have gained a substantial market share internationally. By imposing tariffs, the US and Europe hope to level the playing field for their local manufacturers, encouraging fair competition and fostering the growth of their own electric vehicle sectors. Discover with us as Alex navigates through the expansive booths, uncovering unique and innovative products that showcase the creativity and business acumen of Chinese companies. This in-depth look into the Canton Fair is essential viewing for entrepreneurs, business professionals, and anyone interested in the future of international trade. Don't miss out on insights into how businesses are adapting to the changing economic landscape and what this means for global commerce. Whether you're a seasoned buyer or new to the international trade scene, Alex's journey through the Canton Fair is sure to provide valuable insights and exciting discoveries.
