Analysis of Domestic Visitor Demographics

An analysis of Mainland Chinese visitors reveals a concentrated industry footprint. Visitors from Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shandong alone constituted 67% of the domestic total, with the broader East China region accounting for 78.6%. North China and South China followed as significant secondary hubs, with 7.2% and 4.8% of visitors, respectively. This distribution confirms a gradient development pattern within China, with East China as the dominant core.

A Global Platform for Collaboration

The record-breaking scale and strong international participation at CCE 2025 reflect its pivotal role as a barometer for the global composites industry. The growing international presence can be partly attributed to China's favorable visa policies, which have enhanced cross-border business exchange.

The exhibition has firmly established itself as a key destination for international companies seeking opportunities, partnerships, and insights into the Chinese market. Its success underscores China's expanding influence and integrative role within the global composites landscape.

The organizers remain committed to fostering a platform for global collaboration, bridging markets and technologies, and contributing to a shared and prosperous future for the composites industry worldwide. 文章来源：http://shenzhen.chinacompositesexpo.com/en/news-detail-92-16631.html
