Invitation

Dear Business Partners,
You are cordially invited to attend the Polyurethane Technology International Forum 2023 which will take place in Shanghai on September 13-15.The Forum is organized by Suntower Consulting Limited, and delivered in partnership with the Shanghai Polyurethane Industry Association and the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology.
Nowadays, polyurethane materials have been widely applied in areas including new energy vehicles,green furniture,healthcare, cold chain logistics, aerospace, bullet trains, wind power and LNG carriers. According to PUdaily, a Suntower brand, the global polyurethane market size reached USD 55 billion in 2022, and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 5.8% for the2023-2028 period. China, as a powerhouse of polyurethane production and consumption, has made a great contribution to the development of global polyurethane industry. In 2022, the country saw polyurethane output of 16 million tonnes, accounting for 45% of the global output.
However, the industry still suffers from overcapacity and environmental issues, making sustainability a major industry concern, and necessitates the development of new green and smart materials. In this context, deepening exchanges and enhancing cooperation to reach a mutually beneficial result are of great significance.
Your time is valuable, and so are your next strategic decisions. We would really appreciate it if you could takethe time out of your busy schedule to attend and we assure that you will be rewarded for visiting this industry leading show in China!
