The countdown is on for ACHEMA 2027, the World Forum and Show for Life Science and Process Industries,, staged in Frankfurt, Germany from 14 June 2027 to 18 June 2027 and set to gather the sector under one roof. From factory floors to buying desks, the whole supply chain shows up — which is exactly what makes the sourcing here so productive. Taking place every year, ACHEMA 2027 has become a fixture on the industry calendar. Organisers expect close to 106000 attendees, from first-time visitors to seasoned professionals. Messe Frankfurt sets the scene, offering modern halls and comfortable meeting spaces.

Frankfurt is more than just a backdrop for ACHEMA 2027 — it is part of the experience. The city is well practised at welcoming international visitors and large-scale gatherings. Flights land close by and public transport does the rest, so Frankfurt is an easy city to reach and an easier one to navigate. From polished chain hotels to independent boutiques, Frankfurt has a bed for every budget and taste. For visitors coming from abroad, Frankfurt is also a great gateway to the rest of Germany.

This edition puts the spotlight on Process Industry, Pharmaceutical Innovation, Lab Innovation, Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, Life Science and Chemicals & Materials, with exhibitors presenting their latest collections, products and innovations across these areas. It rewards the prepared: come with a plan and you can line up a season's worth of suppliers in an afternoon. The exhibitor list runs to 2840+ exhibitors, from category leaders to the challengers snapping at their heels.

Expect to leave with new partners, fresh leads and a better feel for the sector. For wholesalers, retailers and the suppliers who serve them weighing where to spend their time, ACHEMA 2027 makes a strong case for itself.

First-timers in particular benefit from a quick look at the floor plan or agenda beforehand, so no key session slips by.
