The exhibition area of the Italian National Pavilion is located in Hall N1 of the International Brand Exhibition Area.

The Chinese market remains attractive to the global glass processing industry. As an international industry innovation model, the Italian glass machinery industry is renowned for its precision craftsmanship and focus on details, constantly surpassing tradition and breaking through technological boundaries, providing cutting-edge solutions for glass processing enterprises, and establishing a leading position in the global glass machinery market. In Asia, Italian glass machinery has a strong market share.

According to GIMAV data, Italy remains an important trading partner of China in Europe, and the trade of glass machinery between the two countries maintains a good development momentum. In 2023, the trade volume of Italian Chinese glass machinery exceeded 118 million euros, accounting for 4.72% of Italy's total international trade in this industry. Among them, Italy's exports to China were 79 million euros, accounting for 4.15% of the industry's total exports. China is the seventh largest export destination country and regional market for Italian glass machinery. China is also the top export destination for Italian curved glass machinery, with an export value of 51 million euros in 2023.
