Guangzhou set for ingredient innovation event

Held annually in major cities in China, PCHi provides international and domestic manufacturers of cosmetics and toiletries (C&T) with a quality platform for connecting with ingredient suppliers from all over the world. The event is rotated annually between Changjiang Delta and Zhuhai Delta – two of China’s most affluent business areas that are also key manufacturing hubs for the personal care, cosmetics, toiletries and home care industry. That is why PCHi continues to draw business professionals such as formulators, manufacturers, R&D technologists, and senior management from all corners of the globe. Since 2008, PCHi has garnered the attention of the international C&T industry, and consistently attracts quality exhibitors and visitors. Thousands of decisionmakers from domestic and global beauty brands gather at the trade show every year to source raw materials for their businesses. At PCHi 2013, visitors can expect to meet with more ingredient suppliers than ever. The sixth edition of the trade show is set to see a record number of 300 exhibitors, with at least 48 companies showcasing their innovations at the event for the first time. C&T manufacturers will also gain insight into the technologies behind some of the industry’s most cutting edge ingredients at the New Technology Sessions (NTS) during PCHi 2013. Participating exhibitors include:

•  Ajinomoto Co., Inc.

The NTS is part of the annual PCHi conference programme, which will feature a host of fresh topics to provide attendees with insight into current and upcoming trends in the personal care sector. Over the years, the NTS has become increasingly popular among PCHi exhibitors as a platform to showcase their latest personal care ingredients. At PCHi 2013, 17 international and domestic companies will provide insight into their most recent innovations. These sessions will be held on the show floor, and are open to all event attendees. Prior to the show, visitors can also connect with ingredient suppliers through the Nova Exhibitor Directory (http://www.pchi-china.com/en/Exhibitors/ ExhibitorList). Profile pages are managed by the exhibitors, giving personal care brands a clearer idea of what each business has to offer.
