The Frankfurt International Stationery and Office Products Exhibition next edition date updated
Paperworld China is Asia’s premier trade fair for stationery, office supplies and hobby‑craft products, held at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center. The three‑day event (20‑22 Nov 2026) showcases a broad spectrum of categories: classic stationery (pens, pencils, notebooks, folders, pencil cases), office essentials (desk organizers, filing systems, ergonomic accessories), school and home‑office supplies, and trend‑driven lifestyle items such as digital accessories, tea‑barista tools and outdoor gear. A strong focus is placed on cultural and IP‑driven merchandise, with collaborations between Chinese creators and international brands, and a dedicated pavilion for licensed products. Sustainable innovation is highlighted through exhibitors offering recycled‑plastic stationery and eco‑friendly paper. The fair also features a robust art‑supplies segment (paints, brushes, markers, stamping kits) and a "Twenty Pro" pavilion presenting over 30 overseas brands. Supporting services include live‑streaming partnerships (e.g., JD.com), B2B/B2C networking, and a program of expert talks on market trends, design, and digitalisation.
