APPIE is a general incorporated association established with aims to promote the development of the powder-related industry through the development and diffusion of powder-related technologies and, in doing so, to contribute to the sound development of the Japanese economy and enhancement of the living standards of the national citizens. Currently, our member companies, including manufacturers of powder machinery and equipment and firms handling powders across various industries—materials, chemicals, food, pharmaceuticals, mining, construction, and engineering—collaborate with experts from academia and government in diverse activities.

POWTEX®2026 represents the culmination of these activities, providing a unique opportunity for leaders from industry, academia, and government to present emerging technologies and products. We sincerely hope that many corporations and organizations will take this opportunity and shape the future through powder technology.

As Japan’s premier exhibition covering the full spectrum of powder technologies—from producing, transporting, and measuring powders—POWTEX® welcomes exhibitors looking to expand their business by showcasing powder-related materials as well as production and measurement equipment for granular materials. Special Trial Booths are also available for corporations exhibiting for the first time or returning after a long interval.

One distinctive feature of this exhibition is that it is planned and managed primarily by APPIE member corporations together with executive committee members selected from both academia and industry, including leading researchers in powder engineering. This ensures that the organizers and exhibitors share a common perspective and purpose, rooted in the daily challenges and potential of powder technology.

Under the theme PX (Powder-technology Transformation), POWTEX®2026 aims not only to provide opportunities for business discussions, but also to strengthen collaboration among corporations and academia. Through the diffusion of powder technology, we hope to contribute to the global economy and a more sustainable environment.
