Note on ISK-SODEX: the organiser's pages and the venue's own fair page give 19 to 22 October 2027 at the Istanbul Expo Center. Some fair listings still show 20 to 23 October. Chillventa is in the list although it falls in 2028: the 2026 edition ended on 15 October 2026 and the organiser has already announced the next dates.

2. PU Expo İstanbul 2026: when and where

The polyurethane fair PU Expo İstanbul 2026 takes place from 11 to 13 November 2026 at the Istanbul Expo Center (İFM) in Yeşilköy. The organiser's Turkish FAQ page and the venue's own fair page give Hall 5, and the fair is open from 10:00 to 18:00 on all three days. The organiser's PDF brochure names Halls 4 and 8, so confirm the hall with the organiser before you visit. The fair is organised in cooperation with POLYDER, the Polyurethane Industry and Importers Association, and CNG Expo.

The organiser presents the fair as a meeting point for raw material, machinery and technology professionals. Its visitor profile includes, among others, furniture and bedding, refrigerators and freezers, construction, automotive, and coatings and adhesives. Visitor registration is free on the fair website and the conference programme is free for visitors; the organiser says the entrance fee will be announced closer to the fair. By metro, get off at the Dünya Ticaret Merkezi / İstanbul Fuar Merkezi station on line M1A.

The same organiser holds the technical foam fair Foam Eurasia 2026 on the same dates at the same venue. Some older listings, and the English FAQ page on the organiser's site, may still show June 2026 for PU Expo; the organiser's home page, its Turkish FAQ page and the venue's fair page give 11 to 13 November 2026. Our earlier report is here: PU Expo İstanbul 2026.

3. PUTECH Eurasia 2026: is there one, and how is it different from PU Expo?

The next PUTECH Eurasia is on 24 to 26 November 2027 at the Istanbul Expo Center. The organiser, Artkim Fuarcılık, lists the 10th International Polyurethane Industry Exhibition for 2027 and shows no PUTECH Eurasia date for 2026. The 9th edition took place on 26 to 28 November 2025 (news item on the 2025 edition). The polyurethane fair in Istanbul in 2026 is PU Expo İstanbul.

PUTECH Eurasia and PU Expo İstanbul are separate fairs with different organisers: Artkim Fuarcılık runs PUTECH, while CNG Expo and POLYDER run PU Expo. PUTECH Eurasia 2027 covers polyurethane chemicals, machinery and equipment, system houses, coatings and adhesives, polyurea applications and RIM integral systems, and, according to the organiser's 2027 calendar, runs together with Eurasian Composites Show and Adhesives & Bonding Eurasia. The similar name PU TECH belongs to a different event in India (20 to 22 January 2027, Greater Noida).

4. Plast Eurasia 2026: when is it?

The Istanbul plastics fair Plast Eurasia 2026 takes place from 2 to 5 December 2026 at the TÜYAP Fair and Congress Center in Büyükçekmece. It is the 35th edition, organised by Tüyap in cooperation with PAGEV, the Plastics Industrialists Research Development and Education Foundation. The organiser describes it as the biggest plastics fair held every year in the Eurasian region. The organiser spells the name Plast Eurasia in Turkish too; some people write it Plast Avrasya.

This is a general plastics fair, not a polyurethane fair. Its product list covers plastics machinery, moulds, recycling technology, automation, cooling systems, raw materials and chemicals, and polyurethane is not a separate product group. For a user of polyurethane systems the benefit is meeting machinery, mould and general chemicals suppliers in one place. For polyurethane-specific content, PU Expo İstanbul and PUTECH Eurasia are the better choice. In April 2027 the same venue also hosts RePlast Eurasia (28 to 30 April), the plastics recycling fair. How polyurethane itself is recycled is explained in our guide Polyurethane Recycling: Mechanical and Chemical.

5. Fairs in Türkiye for insulation, cold chain and construction

Yapı Turkeybuild İstanbul runs from 27 to 30 April 2027 at the TÜYAP Fair and Congress Center (49th edition, organised by ICA Events). Its product categories include building chemicals and insulation, facades and roofing, and HVAC, so it suits insulation and panel suppliers who want to meet buyers from the construction side. The 2026 edition took place on 27 to 30 April 2026 (our news item).

ISK-SODEX İstanbul runs from 19 to 22 October 2027 at the Istanbul Expo Center, organised by Hannover Messe Sodeks Fuarcılık. The scope is heating, cooling, air conditioning, ventilation, insulation, pumps, valves, installation, water treatment, fire prevention, pool and solar systems, so buyers interested in refrigeration and building insulation will find those product groups there. The organiser says admission is free for industry professionals and that online registration allows entry without waiting in line. The last edition ran on 22 to 25 October 2025, and the organiser shows no Istanbul edition for 2026 (our news item).

6. Polyurethane, insulation and plastics fairs abroad

Europe

UTECH Europe, 20 to 22 April 2027, MECC Maastricht (Netherlands): exhibition and three-day conference, organised by Crain Communications' Global Polymer Group in association with Urethanes Technology International. According to the organiser's website, major raw material producers are among its exhibitors and sponsors (our news item).
EUROPUR and EURO-MOULDERS Annual Conference, 8 to 9 June 2027, Cologne: the yearly meeting of the European flexible slabstock foam producers (EUROPUR) and of the European producers of polyurethane parts for the automotive industry (EURO-MOULDERS). It is a conference, not a trade fair (our news item).
Foam Expo Europe, 10 to 12 November 2026, Messe Stuttgart: trade fair and conference for technical foam products and manufacturing. The visitor pass also covers Adhesives & Bonding Expo and Thermal Management Expo Europe in the same hall.
interzum, 11 to 14 May 2027, Cologne: the supplier fair for furniture production. Its Textile & Machinery segment covers upholstery and bedding materials and machinery, including cutting machines for foam, which is why it matters to flexible and viscoelastic foam users.
Chillventa, Nuremberg: the fair for refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation and heat pumps, whose scope includes insulation technologies. It is held every two years. The 2026 edition ran on 13 to 15 October 2026; the next one is on 10 to 12 October 2028 (our news item).

The Gulf

UTECH MEFPU-ASB Expo, 21 to 23 September 2027, Dubai World Trade Centre (5th edition): polyurethane, technical foam, insulation, adhesives, sealants and sandwich panels, with a three-day technical conference. Organised by Media Fusion and Crain Communications.
Big 5 Global, 23 to 26 November 2026, Dubai World Trade Centre: construction and urban development fair organised by dmg events, with 17 product sectors including HVACR, building envelope and offsite and modular construction.

Central Asia

UzBuild, 16 to 18 March 2027, Tashkent (Uzexpocentre): the 28th Uzbekistan International Construction Exhibition.
KazBuild, 7 to 9 September 2027, Almaty (Atakent International Exhibition Centre): the 33rd Kazakhstan International Building and Interior Exhibition.

Both Central Asian fairs are general construction fairs, not polyurethane fairs; they are useful for following the building and insulation side of those markets.

7. What is PTIF?

PTIF is the Polyurethane Technology International Forum, an international polyurethane forum led by PUdaily, a polyurethane market information provider based in Shanghai, together with co-organisers such as the Shanghai Polyurethane Industry Association. It is less a trade fair than a mix of conference sessions, a CEO roundtable, business meetings, a technical exhibition and visits to production sites. The 2026 edition ran on 22 to 27 June 2026 in Shanghai (our news item).

PUdaily has announced the 9th PTIF for 21 to 26 June 2027 and names China as the location, without a city. The 2027 theme is "Green Circularity", with green polyurethane raw materials, recycling, high-end additives, smart manufacturing and new energy applications as focus areas. For polyurethane buyers and system houses it is a way to follow raw material and technology developments in China first hand.

8. How to get the most out of a fair when you buy polyurethane systems

A fair is a quick way to meet several suppliers face to face. These steps help you leave with concrete results. For the basics read What Is Polyurethane?, and for the whole sourcing process Buying Polyurethane Systems from Türkiye.

Write down what you need before you go. Note the application (cold-room panel, sandwich panel, refrigerator, furniture or mattress foam, spray insulation), your machine or line type and the target properties. A supplier cannot suggest the right system family without them.
Register early and plan your days. Many organisers publish the exhibitor list and the hall plan before the fair. Mark the system houses, raw material producers and equipment makers you want to meet and ask for appointments on the first day.
Bring a short brief and your current data sheets. Product, process, yearly volume, delivery country, and the technical data sheet and safety data sheet of the system you use today make a first meeting concrete.
Compare on the same basis. Ask every supplier for the technical data sheet, the safety data sheet and a trial quantity, and judge the systems by a trial on your own machine, not by price alone.
Ask about logistics and documents. Packaging, shelf life, lead time, delivery terms and the language of the safety data sheet decide how quickly a trial becomes a regular order. For shipments to the EU, remember that industrial and professional users of products with 0.1 percent by weight or more of diisocyanates need training before use (Commission Regulation (EU) 2020/1149, applying since 24 August 2023).
Follow up within a week. Send the supplier your trial plan while the conversation is fresh.

Which fair for which product?

Cold-room and sandwich panels, refrigerators: Yapı Turkeybuild, ISK-SODEX, Chillventa, UTECH MEFPU-ASB, Big 5 Global.
Furniture, mattress and automotive foam: interzum, the EUROPUR conference, Foam Expo Europe, PU Expo İstanbul.
Spray insulation and construction: Yapı Turkeybuild, Big 5 Global, UzBuild, KazBuild.
Machinery, moulds and recycling: Plast Eurasia, RePlast Eurasia, UTECH Europe.
The whole polyurethane chain: PU Expo İstanbul, PUTECH Eurasia, UTECH Europe, PTIF.

9. Meet JiTPOL at PU Expo İstanbul 2026
