About the show
China International Hoisting Machinery & Fittings Expo (CIHME China) is a trade fair devoted to industrial crane and port equipment. Established more than a decade ago, it has become one of Asia’s leading specialist crane shows and a focus for international trade in the sector.
The fair covers the full equipment chain, from heavy-duty industrial and port cranes through light lifting equipment to the components, drives and control systems that go with them. It brings manufacturers, suppliers and buyers together from China and overseas, and has earned a reputation as the industry’s annual meeting point for lifting and port equipment.
