From September 15 to 17, 2026, at the Shanghai New International Expo Center, The 29th Adhesives and Sealants Expo (ASE CHINA 2026) is set to kick off. Also taking place at the same venue and during the same period are the 24th China International Rubber Technology Exhibition and the 23rd China International Chemical Industry Exhibition. Together, these three exhibitions will form “China Petrochemical Industry Week,” which is expected to attract more than 100,000 professional visitors from both China and abroad.
The current downturn in the melamine market provides a short-term cost advantage for downstream flame retardant manufacturers, but concurrent weakness on the demand side may partially offset this benefit. Companies are advised to take advantage of the current raw material price window to optimize their procurement strategies, while closely monitoring the pace of demand recovery in end-user industries such as building materials and cables.
Flame-retardant PVC intended for export must comply with various regulations, including the EU’s REACH (SVHC screening + CPR fire safety requirements), California Proposition 65 (limit of 25 ppm per substance), and Southeast Asian chemical registration requirements. Since copper wires come into contact with cables, whereas pipes do not, the paths to compliance differ significantly. YinSu Flame Retardant offers export compliance solutions tailored to specific product types and markets, thereby reducing the risk associated with formulation adjustments.
