The Bangkok show had 235 exhibiting companies from seven countries in 2026, with a mix spanning metal, plastic and rubber parts, electrical components, tooling and manufacturing services. Automotive supply chains remain central, while medical devices, aerospace, robotics and advanced electronics broaden the sourcing brief.
Its distinctive feature is the involvement of the Thailand Board of Investment alongside Informa Markets and the Thai Subcontracting Promotion Association. BOI business matching connects suppliers with industrial parts buyers, while the Buyers’ Village lets major purchasers show the components they need and explain their procurement policies. The EMIDAS Manufacturing Fair adds a strong Japanese and Thai manufacturing connection.
Co-located INTERMACH brings machinery and production technology into the same trip. SUBCON’s particular value is the chance to compare potential subcontractors and understand buyer requirements across Thailand’s industrial supply chains.

For a company sourcing finished components or looking for a Thai manufacturing partner, SUBCON Thailand offers a focused combination of parts suppliers and procurement contacts. The Buyers’ Village turns the discussion toward actual component requirements, and the BOI matching program gives the show a clear sourcing purpose. Japan-facing businesses also have the EMIDAS Manufacturing Fair and its associated business matching network.
Manufacturing Expo, also in Bangkok, covers machinery and technology for plastics, molds, automotive parts, robotics, electronics, surface treatment and factory management. Its June position suits a separate production investment trip. It is the stronger fit when the main question is which equipment or manufacturing process to install; SUBCON is more directly relevant when the question is who can make the required part.
HANNOVER MESSE places industrial automation, AI and production systems in a broader international setting in April. It suits teams comparing technology across global industrial markets. SUBCON offers a more concentrated route into Thai suppliers and Japanese manufacturing relationships. Within the Bangkok trip itself, INTERMACH complements SUBCON with machinery, software and manufacturing equipment, allowing sourcing and production engineering teams to pursue connected objectives.
SUBCON Thailand is the right trip for industrial buyers seeking Thai parts suppliers and manufacturers building business with Thai and Japanese supply chains.
Who exhibits
The 2026 lineup included Aerospace MRO, Bangkok Taiyo Springs, Daido Electronics Thailand and O.E.I. Group of Companies. Together with the show’s component, tooling and surface treatment categories, those names illustrate a supplier mix extending beyond automotive parts into aerospace and electrical manufacturing. Precision manufacturers sit alongside rubber and plastic processors, automation providers and industrial services. The Buyers’ Village adds the purchasing side of that supply chain, giving the floor a different purpose from a machinery-only exhibition.

SUBCON Thailand 2027
SUBCON Thailand 2027 builds its sourcing offer around the Buyers’ Village, international pavilions and EMIDAS Manufacturing Fair. Industrial parts remain the core, with automotive and electrical supply chains joined by aviation, medical equipment, robotics and digital manufacturing. The BOI matching platform lets exhibiting suppliers present products and schedule targeted buyer meetings. This combination gives manufacturers a route into procurement conversations alongside the production technology shown at the co-located machinery exhibition.
- Use the Buyers’ Village to understand the parts major purchasers want to source locally and the procurement policies those suppliers must meet.
- If Japanese manufacturing relationships are central to your brief, include EMIDAS Manufacturing Fair and its FBC ASEAN business matching track alongside the BOI program.
Exhibiting
Choose between the association’s standard booth package and raw space, with separate provisions for corner positions and the Lead Grab application. A stand is particularly relevant for component manufacturers able to discuss production requirements with industrial buyers. The BOI matching program gives exhibiting suppliers a dedicated route into those conversations.
