Reed Sinopharm Exhibitions (RSE) today opens pre-registration for the 2027 edition of Personal Care and Homecare Ingredients (PCHi), taking place from 24–26 February 2027 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou. Visitors can pre-register now at https://bit.ly/PCHi2027PreReg.

As the world's largest cosmetics ingredients exhibition, PCHi returns as the first major industry gathering of the year, bringing together formulators, brand owners, R&D professionals, regulatory affairs specialists, buyers, and solution providers from across the China and Asia-Pacific markets. This edition builds on a 2026 show that drew more than 50,000 trade professionals and over 860 exhibitors from 72 countries and regions.

A Growing Emphasis on Evidence-Based Efficacy

China's regulatory and consumer landscape continues to shape global personal care innovation, and PCHi is where that shift plays out most directly for the industry. Consumers are increasingly willing to pay for that shift: Euromonitor International's 2026 Global Consumer Trends report found that 49% of consumers would pay at least 10% more for premium beauty products with a scientific formulation, and retail sales of dermocosmetics posted a double-digit compound annual growth rate in every region from 2020 to 2024. Brands are responding by asking suppliers and formulators to support claims with mechanism, biological target, and clinical validation, rather than concentration alone. PCHi's exhibition floor, conference sessions, and technical forums give visitors a direct line into how suppliers across the value chain are responding to that shift, making early visibility into the market valuable for buyers and formulators worldwide.

"The industry has moved past listing what's in a formula — brands, regulators, and consumers all want to know how and why it works. PCHi is where that conversation happens across the full value chain, bringing formulators, suppliers, and researchers together to work through what evidence-based innovation looks like in practice," said a RSE spokesperson.

The professionals driving that shift are consistently the ones who show up. At the 2026 edition, R&D professionals made up the largest share of visitors (28.7%), followed by marketing (23.3%), senior management (19.6%), and purchasing and procurement (14.4%) — the same functions responsible for building, evaluating, and bringing efficacy claims to market. Visitors to PCHi 2027 can expect to be in the room with that same mix of decision-makers and technical specialists.

Pre-Register Now

The 2027 edition will span seven exhibition halls of ingredient and formulation innovation, alongside the PCHi Annual Industry Conference and the PCHi Fountain Awards.
