It is sending an invitation to the world. This is the annual appointment between Ningbo and the global stationery community, and also the best window to observe the transformation and evolution of the global stationery industry.Gathering of Thousands of Exhibitors — How Can It Carry Global ExpectationsThe Ningbo International Stationery Fair 2026will reach a new record scale, utilizing Halls H1–H8 of the Ningbo International Convention and Exhibition Center, the connecting corridor, and outdoor halls H9, H11, H16, and H57. From the initial single exhibition hall to the simultaneous opening of twelve halls today, the expansion history of the Ningbo International Stationery Fair is in fact a microcosm of the growth of China’s stationery industry. The 7% increase in scale compared with the previous edition, expanding the exhibition area to 64,000 square meters, represents not only an expansion of physical space, but also deeper integration of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. Behind the data lies the enthusiasm of the industry. A total of 1,872 enterprises from 20 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions including Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, Guangdong and Hebei, as well as Hong Kong and Taiwan, and countries such as Vietnam, will make their appearance. More than a thousand long‑time partners such as Beifa, Baoke, Changlong, Changjiang Paper, Lepusheng, Xingwei, Tianhong, Wuqian Nian, Aoxiang, Hualong, Shuangye, Yiren, Xuetai, Yingchen, Golden Monkey, Chenqi, Hubao, Deligao, Qihao, Oudi, Hongxing, Best, Jiuling, Xiaomi, Kedeyou, Xinmo, Delijia, Subisizhuang and Kangmeilian will return as scheduled, while hundreds of new partners including Mali, Tianjiao, Kangda, STA, Yatan, New Era, Nano Micro, Simple Culture, Xinqiu Dye, Kaiyuan and Libang will make their debut.The continuous optimization of the exhibitor structure and the strong concentration of industry leaders not only demonstrate the core platform value of the Ningbo Stationery Fair as a gathering place for leading stationery enterprises in China, but also reflect the collective participation of industrial clusters. “China’s Stationery Production Base” Shantou in Guangzhou, “China’s Stationery Industry Base” Ninghai in Ningbo, “Hometown of Chinese Pen‑making” Fenshui in Hangzhou, “China’s Cultural and Educational Supplies Industry Base” Wuyi in Jinhua, “One of the World’s Largest Pencil Production Bases” Qingyuan in Lishui, “China’s Toy and Gift Capital” Chenghai in Shantou, “China’s Trendy Toy Capital” Dongguan in Guangdong, “Chinese Pen Capital” Wengang in Jinxian, Jiangxi, “China’s Pen Manufacturing Capital” Wenzhou, as well as Linyi in Shandong and Yangzhou in Jiangsu… more than ten major stationery industrial bases across the country will participate with dozens or even hundreds of enterprises in group exhibitions.

The linkage between online and offline channels extends the three‑day exhibition into a year‑round business platform. Innovation Empowerment — How Can It Support the Industry Landscape If scale is the skeleton of an exhibition, then exhibits are its soul. In recent years, the Ningbo International Stationery Fair has continuously broken the stereotype that “stationery equals pens and notebooks” by establishing the “Art Materials,  Cultural Creative and Educational Zone,” the “Processing Equipment and Components Zone,” and by organizing new product launch events. At this year’s exhibition, traditional categories such as writing instruments, office supplies, paper products and art supplies will remain the core sectors, while emerging tracks such as cultural creative trendy toys and emotional healing products are rapidly rising, forming a “stationery universe” with a full‑category layout. What will you see when you step into the exhibition halls?Stress‑relief squeeze toys designed in the shape of bread and hamburgers waiting for tired hands to flatten and knead them; stationery products co‑branded with popular IPs such as Nezha and Capybara, using familiar images to evoke emotional resonance; trendy products following the concept that “everything can be a blind box,” creating surprises the moment they are opened; cultural creative products from major scenic spots and museums that are often hard to obtain, allowing cultural memory to have a tangible carrier; as well as impressive new products such as AI creative tools and intelligent writing devices. The collision between tradition and technology is redefining the possibilities of “stationery.”This year’s exhibition will continue and upgrade the First Launch series of activities. Well‑known stationery companies including Beifa, Jiuling, Kangmeilian, Changlong, Tianhong, Kedeyou, O‑Wen, Xingcangchen and Xingmao have confirmed their participation in the “First Launch | 2026 Ningbo International Stationery Fair Innovative Product Release Conference,” bringing the latest R&D and design achievements from their respective fields and joining the “release window” for the stationery industry in 2026. At the same time, closely following the current trend of intelligent industrial transformation, the exhibition will launch the themed forum “The Book and Stationery Industry in the Silicon‑based Era,” focusing on topics such as data‑driven manufacturing upgrades, AI‑empowered brand operations and industry value reconstruction, exploring pathways for breakthroughs in the intelligent transformation of the stationery industry. In addition, activities such as the “2026 Douyin E‑commerce Cultural and Educational Industry Trend Report,” the “China Stationery Industry Standardization and Asia‑Pacific Alliance Standards Practice Training Conference,” and the launch of the “Ningbo Stationery Industry Foreign Trade Compliance Guidelines” will also be held. Multiple forums and activities will take place successively. From product innovation to channel transformation, from technological empowerment to consumer insights, industry experts, corporate elites and platform representatives will engage in in‑depth dialogue, providing forward‑looking insights and strategic guidance for the global stationery community.

The autumn breeze of September not only brings the sound of a new semester’s school bell but also heats up the stationery market. From the first set of crayons held in the hands of kindergarteners to smart study tools in college students’ backpacks, “buying new stationery” has long become a ritual for every family preparing for school. This year, stationery choices for the back-to-school season are more diverse, meeting students’ pursuit of a sense of ritual while aligning with the growing emphasis on healthy learning.Technology Empowerment: Leading New Market TrendsWith rapid technological development, electronic and digital stationery have become mainstream, while smart stationery is now commonly found in daily study life. From talking pens that help with unfamiliar content, to study tablets with massive learning resources and online Q&A, and further to automatic pencil sharpeners, smart color-absorbing pens, smart desks and chairs, and fingerprint-lock notebooks—these innovative, efficient, and convenient tools are highly favored by students and parents alike. According to the White Paper on China’s Electric Pencil Sharpener Industry, the market size of electric sharpeners has surpassed 1.2 billion yuan, accounting for over 60% of the segment.The rise of smart stationery not only changes students’ learning methods but also drives transformation and upgrading within the stationery industry. By integrating technologies such as the internet, big data, and artificial intelligence, stationery companies have achieved comprehensive innovation in product R&D, manufacturing, and sales channels, thereby improving production efficiency and product value. With the popularization of 5G and the Internet of Things, the smart stationery market is expected to further expand, with more diversified functions and broader application scenarios.Safeguarding Growth: Responding to New Consumer NeedsAgainst the backdrop of consumption upgrades, parents and students are paying greater attention to healthy learning, making “health-focused” stationery a new trend for the back-to-school season. From correcting writing posture to ensuring product safety, health-oriented stationery is designed around “reducing study-related strain,” helping students learn with greater peace of mind.In recent years, products such as silicone anti-slip pen grips and triangular pencils promoting healthy posture have gained popularity. These tools help students form correct writing habits, preventing finger deformities and myopia caused by improper grip, while also reducing hand fatigue from long periods of writing. Adjustable-angle bookstands, which support multi-angle adjustments, allow students to customize reading and writing positions, avoiding neck and spine fatigue caused by prolonged downward posture.The rise of health-oriented stationery reflects consumers’ increasing demand for higher product quality and safety. As health awareness continues to spread, this sub-market is expected to keep growing. Stationery enterprises can increase R&D investment to enhance health features and product quality, meeting consumer needs for a healthier learning environment.Emotional Resonance: Creating New Brand ValueGel pens printed with popular cartoon characters, featuring classic quotes or scenes, provide students with a sense of “character companionship” while writing. Co-branded notebooks incorporate exclusive IP color schemes, with pages decorated with illustrations or watermarks, making them practical for note-taking and collectible at the same time. As Generation Z’s demand for stationery shifts from “practical” to “emotional resonance,” IP-collaborative stationery has become a major hit in the back-to-school market. Covering categories such as pens, notebooks, pencil cases, schoolbags, planners, plush toys, and badges, these products often sell out instantly, creating recurring “sold-out frenzy” moments.The appeal of IP-collaborative stationery lies not only in its aesthetics but also in its emotional connection. Whether it’s classic animation IPs that accompanied childhood or characters from blockbuster summer movies, they bring a sense of “favorite things at hand” to students’ study experiences. Such products not only add ritual to the back-to-school season but also make stationery a medium for young people to express individuality and find social belonging.The popularity of cultural IP stationery not only provides companies with new profit growth points but also opens new paths for brand building. By collaborating with trending IPs, stationery enterprises can quickly capture the attention of target consumers, enhancing brand awareness and reputation. Amid intensifying IP licensing competition, brands should explore deeper cultural value within IPs and continue innovating in product design, function development, and content marketing to strengthen long-term competitiveness.This year’s back-to-school stationery market trends—smartization, health orientation, and cultural IP integration—reflect the diversified and upgraded needs of consumers while pointing the way forward for the industry. The back-to-school season is no longer just a simple consumption occasion but has become an important window to observe industry development trends and cultural consumption shifts.
