CHCI Cosmetics & Home Care Ingredients Istanbul

The Cosmetics & Home Care Ingredients (CHCI) is an annual international trade fair that has played a significant role in the cosmetics, personal care, and household products industry in the Eurasian region since its inception in 2014. The event takes place at the Istanbul Expo Center, one of Turkey’s most modern exhibition venues, conveniently located in Istanbul with direct access to the international airport and public transportation.

The CHCI is organized by Artkim Fuarcılık Tic. Ltd. Şti., an experienced trade show organizer specializing in industry-specific exhibitions focused on chemistry and technology. Each year, the fair attracts a professional international audience, including product developers, buyers, R&D specialists, and experts in manufacturing, quality assurance, and brand management. It caters to both established companies and innovative start-ups, serving as a key platform for exchange between suppliers and decision-makers.

The fair centers on current industry developments: new, scientifically based ingredients and formulations, sustainable solutions, technological innovations, and regulatory requirements for international market access. Visitors experience the industry’s innovation potential first-hand – from waterless formulations and probiotics to digitally controlled packaging solutions.

Special emphasis is placed on the Turkish market: with its growing population and strategic location at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, Turkey offers an attractive environment for international manufacturers and suppliers. The fair leverages this geographic advantage and is held concurrently with the renowned Chem Show Eurasia, creating additional synergies.

CHCI positions itself not merely as a product showcase, but as a comprehensive industry experience. A technical conference featuring scientific presentations and expert panels provides in-depth knowledge, while hands-on workshops – such as those on fragrance and aroma formulation – offer interactive learning opportunities. Networking zones and B2B platforms promote targeted business connections.

Exhibitors primarily represent the fields of raw material chemistry, active ingredient development, packaging technology, and laboratory services. The professional audience mainly comes from the cosmetics industry, the household and cleaning products sector, the chemical industry, as well as from research and retail.

With its clear thematic focus, technical depth, and practical relevance, CHCI is a central platform for anyone looking to actively shape the future of the cosmetics and home care industry. The Istanbul Expo Center not only provides state-of-the-art infrastructure but also an ideal location in a dynamic economic metropolis – offering the perfect conditions for innovation, knowledge exchange, and business success.

Visitors and exhibitors meet for the 7th time on the CHCI Cosmetics & Home Care Ingredients on 3 days from Wed., 18.06.2025 to Fri., 20.06.2025 in Istanbul.
