About Silicone Expo USA
Silicone Expo USA is the North American trade show for silicone materials and their processing, held as part of Materials Week USA with The Magnetics Show USA, The Gasket & Seals Show, Tape & Functional Film Expo, High Performance Alloys Expo and Speciality Polymers World.

Silicone Expo USA 2026
Cancelled. Silicone Expo USA was scheduled for 27–29 October 2026 at Huntington Place, Detroit, Michigan, as part of Materials Week USA.
The organiser, OmniChain Nexus Ltd, has deferred Materials Week USA to 2027. Its statement: "The 2026 edition will not take place, and the event will return to Huntington Place, Detroit, on those confirmed dates." The organiser attributes the decision to fuel costs, US tariff and trade uncertainty, and tighter US visa rules.
The next Silicone Expo USA runs 26–28 October 2027 at Huntington Place, Detroit, alongside the other Materials Week USA shows.
