Pilkington had been invited to attend by the Changchun local government.
The Pilkington stand introduced the company as part of the NSG Group, described its operations worldwide and in China, and showcased its products. Eight samples of automotive glass were on show, most of them with attachments.
The stand team also distributed 1,000 copies of This is Pilkington, in both Chinese and English language versions, and 400 copies of the Automotive Global News in Chinese.
China country manager and Automotive general manager Eddie Chai was invited by the Governor of Jinlin Province to join the VIP party on the platform for the opening ceremony and was interviewed in the local press afterwards.
"Our presence at the Expo has been invaluable in enhancing our reputation within China and throughout Asia as a whole," said Eddie.
"It was not the kind of event which we would expect to result in OE orders, although we did get a number of enquiries from the local AGR market."
