The 8th CIIE: A Global Trade Milestone in Shanghai

The 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE) wrapped up on November 10, 2025, in Shanghai, further strengthening global trade and cooperation. This year’s event saw 4,108 companies from 138 countries, including 290 Fortune Global 500 companies. Notably, 180 exhibitors have participated in all eight editionsSpace 18 is proud to be among these 180 exhibitors.

At the 8th CIIE 2025, Space 18 delivered a powerful and refreshing Australian showcase, blending cultural design, natural textures and mindful living into an immersive experience. Through interactive storytelling, tactile displays and a focus on mental well-being, we invited visitors to slow down, breathe and reconnect with nature’s quiet strength. Our booth became a grounding escape within the expo, where guests could feel the raw beauty of Australia and rediscover balance through stillness, presence and the rhythm of the land.

We remain dedicated to developing products that integrate eco-friendly designs and sustainable production into daily life. Believing that environmental protection begins with youth education, we will continue to innovate and inspire the next generation to make earth-friendly choices.
