Glasspex India Mumbai

glasspex INDIA is the leading trade fair for the glass industry in the Indian subcontinent. It takes place every two years at the Bombay Exhibition Centre (BEC) in Mumbai – one of India’s most modern and important exhibition venues, conveniently located on the Western Express Highway in the Goregaon (East) district. The event is organized by Messe Düsseldorf India, a subsidiary of the internationally renowned Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, recognized worldwide for its expertise in establishing flagship trade fairs in technology-driven industries.

The exhibition is exclusively reserved for trade visitors and serves as a central platform for the entire glass market – from production and processing to finishing, innovative end products, and related services. In the field of production, the focus lies on raw materials, melting furnaces, combustion technology, and energy management. Manufacturers of equipment for flat, hollow, and specialty glass showcase their innovations, alongside providers of advanced measuring technology for quality assurance. Processing and finishing form another key area: visitors experience the latest technologies in coating, cutting, grinding, drilling, and tempering, as well as complete production lines for insulating and laminated safety glass. Decorative processes such as screen printing, sandblasting, and lacquering highlight the versatility of glass as a design material.

The diversity of end products is also impressively represented. The exhibition features architectural and façade glass for modern high-rise buildings, glass for interior design and furniture, automotive glass, glass for the solar industry, and highly specialized products for laboratories and electronics. The range is complemented by tools, machine accessories, CAD/CAM software solutions, and handling and logistics systems that ensure safe and efficient operations in daily practice. Consulting and engineering services round off the portfolio.

The event holds particular significance for India: the rapid construction boom in metropolitan areas such as Mumbai is driving demand for energy-efficient, safe, and aesthetically advanced glass. At the same time, the growing automotive industry and the renewable energy sector – especially photovoltaics – are fueling the need for high-tech glass products. glasspex INDIA meets these demands by providing a vital interface between international technology leaders and the dynamically expanding Indian market.

More than just a trade fair, glasspex INDIA is a showcase for innovation, a networking hub for manufacturers, processors, architects, builders, and investors, and an important driver of progress for the Indian glass industry.

The Glasspex India takes place biennially, and therefore for the 9th time previsibly in September 2027 in Mumbai.
