40th Canton Fair Phase 1 Opens Soon: What Tissue Machinery Buyers Should Check

Phase 1 of the 140th Canton Fair is scheduled for October 15–19, 2026, in Guangzhou. Its published categories include Processing Machinery Equipment and Industrial Automation and Intelligent Manufacturing, making this phase relevant to buyers researching production technology. The presence of a particular tissue machine or supplier should still be checked against the official exhibitor directory before a visit. Official exhibition dates and categories.

For a tissue converting project, a useful supplier discussion starts with the intended finished product. Buyers should identify whether they plan to produce facial tissue, kitchen towels, pocket tissue, hand towels or toilet rolls, then specify the target sheet or roll dimensions, raw paper characteristics and expected output.

The next step is to compare the complete production process, not an isolated machine. Ask which operations are included in the proposed configuration, how material transfers between them, what level of automation is available and which packaging format the line supports. Request a layout drawing and a clear list of equipment included in the quotation.

Performance figures also need context. Confirm the conditions behind any quoted speed or capacity, along with power requirements, operator needs, routine maintenance and spare-parts support. These details make quotations easier to compare and help identify questions that should be resolved before placing an order.

Buyers planning to visit the fair can prepare a short technical brief in advance and use the exhibition to shortlist suitable suppliers. Final equipment decisions should be based on confirmed specifications, product samples and a reviewed line proposal.
