Extraordinary Decade of Concrete 

"China Concrete Exhibition and Industry Convention", 

Paths to High-quality Development of the Industry

In the past ten years, the "China Concrete and Cement-based Products Industry Convention" and "China Concrete Exhibition" created by CCPA have become a new promoter of the transformation and upgrading of the whole industry and a platform to exchange information and share achievements.

The "2021-2022 China Concrete and Cement-based Products Industry Convention" and "2021-2022 China Concrete Exhibition" successfully held in Nanjing in August, 2022 mobilized the whole industry with new ideas, new materials, new products, new technologies and new models, resolved difficulties and obstacles, grasped the general trend of industry development, and turned challenges into opportunities. The "2021-2022 China Concrete Exhibition" witnessed an unprecedented scale and a gathering of outstanding talents. With nearly 30,000 square meters, the exhibition has built the largest offline platform integrating commerce, trade and exhibition in the global concrete industry, focusing on the latest information, green and intelligent development achievements of the whole industrial chain of China's concrete and cement-based products industry, and showing the frontier level of the industry in China to the audience.

At the "2021-2022 China Concrete and Cement Products Industry Convention", nearly 30 events, including China Concrete Lecture Hall and three national concrete industry competitions, bloomed in turn. More than 100 experts and scholars and more than a thousand representatives worked together to brainstorm ideas and offer suggestions. All delegates attending the convention praised that "China Concrete and Cement-based Products Industry Convention" is all about learning, exchanging and implementing new development concepts. At the convention and the exhibition, the key words of industry development with the highest attention are "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals and low-carbon development", "green, intelligent, digital, high-quality", "innovative development of industry credit system" and "concrete engineering and technical personnel included in the national occupational dictionary ". From these high-concentration keywords, we can see that the China Concrete Industry Convention has lit up the direction of the industry in the future.

From 2019 to 2022, despite the influence of COVID-19 pandemic, the exhibition area of "China Concrete Exhibition" has leapt from 10,000 square meters to nearly 30,000 square meters. What is the logic of the rapid development of China Concrete Exhibition? There is no doubt that the green and low-carbon innovation development of concrete and cement-based products industry is an urgent demand for the industry, as the exhibition covering the whole industry chain is a universal medium for the industry to go global and a necessary track to high-quality development.

2021-2022 China Concrete Exhibition focused on the development trend and market prospect of the whole industrial chain of concrete and cement-based products in China and the world, gathering the upstream and downstream industries of ready-mixed concrete, high-performance concrete, precast concrete components, precast concrete piles, cement concrete pipe and box culvert, concrete admixture, lightweight aggregate concrete and eco-concrete, setting up a complete platform for industrial chain exchange and logistics. "China Concrete Exhibition" gives a glimpse of the "hard core" and "soft power" of technological innovation in concrete industry. "National Key Laboratory, Cooperation Exhibition Area of Science and Technology Exhibition of Scientific Research Institute" focuses on the development and changes of the industry in recent years and the transformation of scientific research achievements. A number of national laboratories and key research institutions in the concrete industry have all made wonderful appearances, demonstrating their innovative achievements and development prospects.
