The 13th edition of Vinyl India is scheduled to take place on 9–10 April 2026 at Hotel Sahara Star in Mumbai, bringing together key stakeholders from across the global PVC value chain at a time of heightened market uncertainty.
Organized by ElitePlus++ Business Services, the event is expected to host more than 1,200 delegates from over 500 organizations across 19 countries. As of 24 March, over 1,037 participants representing 435 companies had already confirmed attendance, reflecting strong industry engagement despite ongoing disruptions.
The summit comes against the backdrop of significant volatility in global PVC markets, driven by geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, shifting trade flows and rising prices. Industry participants are grappling with a complex operating environment marked by uncertainty in energy markets, logistics bottlenecks and fluctuating demand conditions.
In this context, the event is positioned as a platform for industry leaders to assess market trends, exchange insights and explore strategic responses to evolving challenges across the PVC ecosystem.
Despite near-term headwinds, India continues to be viewed as a key growth market for PVC, supported by infrastructure expansion, industrial growth and its status as a major deficit market. Ongoing investments in domestic production capacity and growth in sectors such as energy and construction are expected to sustain long-term demand.
The two-day program will cover a wide range of topics, including market fundamentals, pricing trends, manufacturing developments, downstream applications, sustainability and circularity. Panel discussions will address themes such as innovations in piping systems, the future of uPVC in construction, and emerging high-performance applications.
The event will bring together stakeholders, including resin producers, processors, additive manufacturers, machinery suppliers, traders and policymakers, offering a comprehensive view of the industry’s current landscape and future direction.
A new addition to this year’s edition is a structured B2B speed networking initiative, designed to facilitate pre-arranged business meetings and accelerate partnerships among participants. The program will be complemented by networking sessions aimed at fostering industry collaboration and deal-making.
With global PVC markets undergoing rapid change, Vinyl India 2026 is expected to serve as a key forum for dialog, knowledge-sharing and business engagement across the sector.
