New zone
Lab & Analytical Equipment
Lab & analytical equipment suppliers already play a critical role in pharmaceutical development and manufacturing. Yet many still exhibit at general laboratory events, where pharma buyers compete for attention alongside academia, food testing and chemical industries.
The new Lab & Analytical Equipment zone at CPHI Frankfurt 2027 creates a dedicated pharma-focused destination for chromatography, mass spectrometry, spectroscopy, lab automation, LIMS and QC testing technologies. Designed for the R&D, QA/QC and process development teams driving laboratory investment, it brings laboratory innovation directly to the heart of pharma.
A $50–60B market underpinning the future of pharmaceutical laboratories
AI, automation and digital lab technologies are driving towards smarter, integrated labs
Pharma accounts for 20–30% of total lab-equipment demand

The zone launches with roughly fifteen exhibitors in an approx. 250 sqm space. First-time exhibitors can book 9 sqm MSD stands; other exhibitors take a minimum of 12 sqm with dynamic pricing that rewards early booking.
Senior pharma lab buyers: R&D scientists, analytical chemists and method-development specialists, QC analysts through QC directors, lab and lab-operations managers, formulation and development scientists, CMC leads, CDMO analytical-development managers, and biotech founders and CSOs.
The Lab & Analytical Equipment zone will be located next to the Machinery zone, placing exhibitors close to pharma audiences already sourcing equipment, automation and process technologies.
This position creates a natural connection between laboratory innovation, QA/QC, process development and manufacturing decision-makers.
Dedicated lab equipment events often attract a broad scientific audience across academia, food testing, chemicals and wider industrial markets. The Lab & Analytical Equipment zone at CPHI Frankfurt 2027 is different: it is built for suppliers looking to connect with pharma R&D, QA/QC, process development and manufacturing teams evaluating laboratory technologies for regulated pharmaceutical environments.
A speaking slot helps build visibility and credibility before buyers visit your stand. By presenting on topics such as lab automation, data integrity, QC modernization or analytical innovation, exhibitors can create awareness, start relevant conversations and turn session interest into stand engagement.
