Purestar at CPHI China 2026: Three Days of Pharma-Grade Carbon Conversations in Shanghai
From June 16 to 18, 2026, the Purestar team exhibited at CPHI & PMEC China 2026 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC) — Asia's premier pharmaceutical event, bringing together over 3,600 exhibitors and more than 110,000 industry professionals from across the global pharma supply chain.
You could find us at Booth E9D66 in the Pharma Excipients zone, where we spent three days meeting pharmaceutical manufacturers, formulators, and sourcing teams from Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.

What We Showcased
Purification is where activated carbon for the pharmaceutical industry does its quietest but most critical work — and it was the theme of our booth this year. Visitors stopped by to discuss:
- Coal-based decolorization carbons — for removing color bodies and organic impurities during API and intermediate processing
- Low-chlorine decolorization carbon — designed for applications where chloride residue is a concern
- Coconut shell activated carbon — high-purity grades for fine chemical and pharmaceutical purification
- Spherical activated carbon — uniform flow and low dust for column and continuous processing
- Precious metal catalyst carrier carbons — supports for hydrogenation and catalytic synthesis
- Desulfurization carbons — for process gas purification in chemical production
Many conversations went beyond product specs into real process problems: color removal in antibiotic intermediates, catalyst support selection for hydrogenation steps, and consistent batch-to-batch purity — exactly the kind of technical exchange we came for.
Why Pharma Customers Choose Purestar
What resonated most at the booth was our manufacturing setup: four production and R&D bases across China and Southeast Asia, an in-house testing laboratory where every batch is verified before release, and customized processing for customers with specific purity, particle size, or impurity-profile requirements.
Missed Us at the Show?
If we didn't get the chance to meet in Shanghai, the conversation doesn't have to wait for the next exhibition. Browse our pharmaceutical-grade activated carbon products or contact our team with your process requirements — we'll recommend a grade and send samples for evaluation.
Thank you to everyone who visited Booth E9D66. See you at the next show.
