A Decade of Purity: GACT Announces the Historic 10th Edition of APCTEE to Redefine Asia’s Cleanroom Future

GUANGZHOU, China – The Guangdong Association of Cleanroom Technology (GACT) is proud to announce the official launch of the 10th Asia-Pacific Cleanroom Technology & Equipment Exhibition (APCTEE 2026). Scheduled for September 16–18, 2026, at the China Import & Export Fair Complex, this milestone edition marks a pivotal moment in the history of contamination control in Asia.

Ten Years of Evolution Since its inception, APCTEE has mirrored the meteoric rise of China’s high-tech manufacturing—from the early days of basic assembly to today's dominance in semiconductors, biopharmaceuticals, and precision optics.

"The 10th edition is more than an exhibition; it is a testament to our industry's resilience and innovation," states Elliot Griffin, Deputy Secretary-General of GACT. "Over the past decade, we have moved from 'following standards' to 'setting them.' In 2026, we invite the world to witness the next era of 'Smart Purity.'"

Defining the Next Decade: The "Smart & Green" Standard The 2026 agenda will move beyond traditional hardware to focus on the integration of AI-driven monitoring and Net-Zero energy solutions.

Industry Terminology in Focus: Contamination Control Strategy (CCS) A core theme for the 10th Anniversary forums will be the evolution of CCS.

A Call to Visionaries To celebrate this 10-year journey, GACT is launching the "Decade of Excellence" Awards, honoring the pioneers who have shaped the industry. We invite global experts, thought leaders, and top-tier manufacturers to join us not just as exhibitors, but as partners in writing the history of the next decade.
