  • The automotive industry is transitioning towards more sustainable mobility solutions that reduce carbon footprints and enhance environmental protection. With sustainability at its core, the theme of Automechanika Shanghai 2024 – innovate, transform: driving a sustainable future – will focus exhibits, conferences and onsite activities on promoting a greener automotive industry. In this regard, the trade fair stands as a beacon of innovation, serving as a platform for information exchange, marketing, business trading and education to offer compelling insight into the industry’s trajectory. This theme also guides back-of-house processes as an all-encompassing sustainably-conscious platform within China’s MICE industry. In this regard, Messe Frankfurt and Sinomachint have taken significant steps to reduce their carbon footprint, implementing environmental measures to enhance sustainability. The 20-year anniversary edition of Automechanika Shanghai will take place from 2 to 5 December 2024 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). By increasing the use of recyclable materials and replacing conventional construction materials with reusable alternatives like aluminium profiles and stretched fabric printings, the exhibition is taking charge of an eco-friendlier approach to organising large-scale industry events. Notably, all fascia boards on standard booths comply with E0 environmental gradings to ensure recyclability and adherence to fire safety. In addition, all 6,500 exhibitors across the 350,000 sqm venue are encouraged to adopt sustainable practices, including the use of recyclable materials, modular constructions, energy-saving lighting, and waste separation to minimise environmental impact. The transition to a paperless system was also recently prioritised, digitising processes such as mapping, layout design, and production. The focus on green protection extends beyond operational aspects to promotional and advertising efforts. For instance, the show has significantly reduced the use of printed materials, replacing them with digital modes of communication. Visitors can now also access AMS Live, a convenient online platform to explore products, search exhibitors, check booth locations, schedule meetings, and watch livestreamed conferences. Innovation, transformation and sustainability in the market Regarding the theme’s portrayal in the automotive market, technological innovations play a critical role in achieving sustainability goals. China’s ambitious efforts to transform the automotive ecosystem makes it a key player in the global market as significant investments in decarbonising the transportation sector have propelled advancements, particularly in passenger and commercial vehicles. Exhibitors are embracing this direction with approximately one third offering new energy and connectivity related products. As such, the introduction of the New Energy & Connectivity sector aligns with this evolving landscape, emphasising sustainable mobility solutions and the increased adoption of new energy vehicles. This sector is set to showcase cutting-edge innovations driving sustainability in the industry. Spanning over 26,000 sqm of the entire Hall 5.1 with more than 450 exhibitors, displays will feature advancements in core electric components and systems, energy charging and storage, intelligent driving and chassis, and fuel cells, electric systems, battery technology, autonomous driving, and digital management solutions.
