This grand edition in
Bengaluru stands as an apex in South Asia’s HVAC industry. With the theme
‘Unleashing India’s Potential for A Responsible Built Environment,’ it serves
as a powerhouse of innovation, featuring cutting-edge technologies and
sustainable solutions. The growing demand for HVAC solutions is driven by the
increasing number of high-rise buildings, Commercial Buildings, Multi use
facilities, hypermarkets in Tier-II cities, Data Centres, Super specialty
Healthcare facilities and shopping complexes and malls, where HVAC systems are
an essential requirement. This growth is further bolstered by the government’s
continued emphasis on ongoing smart city projects across the nation, creating
new avenues for infrastructure development and technological advancements in
the HVACR sector.
The show is amply supported
by both domestic and international associations such as the Refrigeration and
Air Conditioning Trades Association (RATA), All India Air Conditioning and
Refrigeration Association (ACRA), American Society of Heating, Refrigerating
and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), International Institute of Ammonia
Refrigeration (IIAR), Assocham India, Indian Plumbing Association, India Green
Building Council (IGBC), FSAI, UN Environment Programme, International Copper
Association India, Contamination Control Society of India (CCSI), Federation of
European Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Associations (REHVA),
