From March 18 to 20, 2026, PCHi 2026 took place in Hangzhou, bringing together a wide range of industry players across the cosmetic, personal care, and home care sectors. This year's edition featured over 860 exhibitors from 26 countries and regions, with exhibition space exceeding 70,000 square meters, and attracted professional visitors from more than 70 countries worldwide.
As one of the leading global events for cosmetic ingredients and related industries, PCHi continues to serve as an important platform for industry exchange and international collaboration.
During the exhibition, Chris Wang, Senior Regulatory Analyst & Head of Operations at ZMUni Compliance Centre, was invited to join the roundtable forum "Clean Beauty and Beyond: Unlocking UK-China Collaboration for the Future of Personal Care."
The session was co-hosted by the UK Department for Business and Trade (DBT) and Reed Sinopharm Exhibitions, and supported by the British Chamber of Commerce Shanghai. It brought together companies, industry associations, and research institutions from both China and the UK to discuss emerging trends, new technologies, and evolving collaboration models across the personal care industry.
The discussion focused on topics including China's regulatory landscape and compliance considerations for UK companies, natural and functional skincare trends, and the role of AI and data in ingredient R&D and efficacy evaluation.
During the discussion, Chris shared practical insights on China's cosmetic regulatory framework, highlighting key considerations for market entry, particularly in ingredient management, labeling, and quality control.
The conversation also reflected a broader shift in China's personal care industry—from large-scale manufacturing toward higher-quality innovation—where safety and regulatory compliance continue to play a central role alongside product development.
Through ongoing engagement in cross-border industry dialogue, ZMUni continues to support companies navigating regulatory requirements and market access in China's cosmetics and personal care sector.
Appreciation goes to the organizers for bringing together such a diverse group of stakeholders from across the UK and China.
Looking ahead, continued collaboration between the two markets is expected to further support innovation, regulatory alignment, and sustainable growth across the industry.
