Expoquimia 2026 Puts the Roadmap to the New Industry at the Center of the Debate

From June 2 to 5, Expoquimia 2026 will analyze the keys to the new industry in its "Industry Showcase" conference space, with more than 25 sessions combining real project presentations, technical talks and round tables. The program revolves around four pillars: decarbonization and energy transition, circular water management, materials innovation, and advanced digitalization and AI applied to industry. Day one tackles carbon-footprint reduction with Ercros, Verdemobil Biogaz, Moeve and Tarragona's chemical business association, plus a CEEC round table with BASF, Schneider Electric, LC Paper and La Farga. Day two focuses on sustainable water management with Celsa, Natura Bissé, Cantabria Labs and L'Oréal, alongside Stanpa, the Catalan Water Partnership, AMB and Aqua España. Day three covers advanced polymers, biomaterials and functional surfaces with Covestro, Alier, Carinsa, Leitat and IQS. The final day showcases real AI and digitalization applications with BASF, Kern Pharma, Eurofragance and Almirall, together with technology partners Sener and Kemchain. This edition's best-in-class cases will be recognized at the gala dinner. Expoquimia runs at Fira de Barcelona's Gran Via venue together with Equiplast; both events expect to exceed 800 exhibitors and 21,000 visitors.
