More than 50,000 people from 63 countries attended last month’s 2025 edition of the Personal Care and Homecare Ingredients (PCHi) trade show in Guangzhou, China, according to organiser Reed Sinopharm Exhibitions (RSE).
RSE said visitor numbers saw a notable increase compared to the previous edition, underscoring the growing interest in PCHi as a key event driving global engagement and business opportunities.
“China remains a powerhouse in the global personal care industry, with its continuous advancements in ingredient innovation influencing beauty trends worldwide,” said a spokeswoman.
“PCHi serves as a vital conduit for international and domestic stakeholders to exchange insights, discover cutting-edge technologies, and build valuable business connections that will shape the future of the industry,” she added.
Looking ahead, next year’s PCHi will take place on 18–20 March 2026 at the Hangzhou Grand Convention and Exhibition Centre, marking the event’s debut in the city.
RSE said Hangzhou provides an exciting new backdrop for PCHi, bolstering the event’s global influence.
Located in the Yangtze River Delta - a region renowned for manufacturing excellence - Hangzhou is also home to leading C-beauty brands and a thriving ecosystem of cosmetics R&D, making it the ideal setting for the next chapter of PCHi’s journey.
“The enthusiasm and engagement at PCHi 2025 reaffirm the event’s essential role in driving industry innovation and business growth,” said the spokeswoman.
“We look forward to welcoming the global personal care community to Hangzhou next year, where we will continue to foster impactful exchanges, groundbreaking discoveries, and lasting collaborations.”
