The 16th Fastener Expo Shanghai (Fastener Expo Shanghai 2026) will be held from June 24–26, 2026 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). As one of the major professional events in the fastener industry, the exhibition aims to serve as an important platform for industry exchange and cooperation through comprehensive supply chain displays, technical forums, and multiple industry activities.

The event is jointly organized by Ebseek.

Fastener Expo Shanghai 2026 will occupy Halls 1.1, 2.1, and 3 of the National Exhibition and Convention Center, covering an exhibition area of approximately 70,000 square meters. The event is expected to host over 1,400 exhibitors from across the fastener supply chain and attract more than 25,000 professional visitors.

After fifteen editions of development, Fastener Expo Shanghai has grown into one of the most influential professional trade platforms in the fastener industry. The exhibition covers a full spectrum of products and technologies, including fastener finished products, manufacturing equipment, tooling materials, inspection technology, and smart manufacturing solutions.

Steady Industry Growth and Expanding Market Demand

Fasteners are fundamental components in mechanical manufacturing and industrial production, widely used in sectors such as automotive manufacturing, construction machinery, rail transit, energy equipment, and infrastructure projects.

According to industry statistics, China’s fastener exports exceeded USD 11.9 billion in 2025, with export volumes surpassing 6.2 million tons, reflecting stable growth in the industry.

Several key trends are shaping the fastener market:

Growing demand for high-strength fasteners
 With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, wind power equipment, and large-scale engineering projects, the demand for high-strength and high-reliability fasteners continues to increase.

Increasing demand for customized products
 More end-user manufacturers require customized fastener designs tailored to specific equipment structures and working conditions.

Advancement in manufacturing automation
 Fastener manufacturers are accelerating investments in automated equipment and intelligent manufacturing systems to improve production efficiency and product quality.

Against this backdrop, professional exhibitions play an increasingly important role in helping companies understand market trends and expand business cooperation.

Clear Hall Layout Showcasing the Full Industry Chain

Fastener Expo Shanghai 2026 will feature a well-structured exhibition layout highlighting the entire fastener industry chain.

Halls 1.1 and 2.1 will mainly display fastener finished products and application solutions, including standard fasteners, customized non-standard parts, and riveted fastening products. Exhibitors will present products used in industries such as automotive manufacturing, energy equipment, and construction machinery.

Companies including Shanghai Luowei Rivet Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Shanghai FIX Rivet Co., Ltd., and Zhejiang Dite High-Strength Bolt Co., Ltd. are expected to showcase their products at the exhibition.

Hall 3 will focus on fastener manufacturing equipment and production technologies, including cold forming machines, tooling systems, wire materials, and inspection equipment. The hall will provide technical upgrading and procurement solutions for fastener manufacturers.

This layout allows visitors to gain a comprehensive understanding of the fastener supply chain—from raw materials and manufacturing technologies to finished products and applications.

Industry Forums and Events to Highlight the Exhibition

In addition to product displays, the exhibition will host a series of industry events to promote technical exchange and business cooperation.

Key events include:

• Fastener Equipment Purchasing Festival
   Initiated by Ebseek, the program encourages fastener manufacturers to purchase equipment through subsidy policies and promotional incentives.
• F&J Fastener & Joining Conference 2026
   Featuring three parallel forums on lightweight automotive fastening, rail transit fastening systems, and fasteners for low-altitude aviation.
• National High-End Fastener Anti-Loosening Technology Forum
   Experts from wind power, railway, and construction machinery industries will discuss the development of anti-loosening technologies.
• Fastener Steel (Shanghai) Forum
   Bringing together steel producers and fastener manufacturers to discuss material performance and supply chain collaboration.

Additional activities will include the Fastener Distributor Conference, Fastener Youth Association Meeting, B2B Buyer Matchmaking Session, and the “Golden Screw Award” Ceremony during the “Screw Night” industry gathering.

A Growing Annual Event for the Global Fastener Industry

With the continuous development of the fastener industry and increasing demand for advanced connection technologies, Fastener Expo Shanghai is becoming one of the key annual industry events.

By integrating product displays, technical forums, and networking activities, the exhibition provides companies with valuable opportunities to showcase their technologies, expand business partnerships, and gain insights into global market trends.

For companies seeking to enhance brand visibility, explore international markets, and stay updated with industry developments, Fastener Expo Shanghai 2026 will be an event worth attending.
