Engaging fringe programmes offer more in-depth discussions on HVAC and sanitation technologies
Following the conclusion of ISH Frankfurt 2013, the world’s HVAC and sanitation professionals are gearing up for the show’s annual presentation in Asia. ISH China & CIHE – the China International Trade Fair for Sanitation, Heating, Ventilation & Air-Conditioning, will be staged next week from 8 – 10 April 2013.
The fair will take place once again at Beijing’s largest exhibition venue, the New China International Exhibition Centre, where it will cover six halls totalling 80,000 sqm of exhibition space, a 13% increase from the previous year. Exhibitors are expected to show their latest selection of products and technological breakthroughs in items such as boilers, wall-hung boilers, heat pumps, solar energy-based products, radiators, heat exchangers, ventilation and air-condition units, sanitary wares, floor-heating devices, heat metres and many other energy-saving specialties. For overseas brands, the Beijing show is regarded as the premier venue for tapping the Chinese HVAC and sanitation market. While for domestic suppliers, the fair offers the chance to showcase not only the country’s cost-effective products, but provides them with a chance to expand their business to overseas markets.
The Beijing fair has rapidly become Asia’s most influential platform for the global HVAC and sanitation community. Additionally, it has come to be regarded as the top destination for China’s booming infrastructure and property development sectors. For the 2013 edition, over 860 exhibitors from 21 countries and regions have been confirmed, a record-setting figure in the history of the Beijing show.

Engaging fringe programmes offer more in-depth discussions on HVAC and sanitation technologies
In addition to an amazing exhibitor turnout, the fair’s organisers have made significant improvements to confirmed fringe programmes. Two of the most anticipated forums at the show include the Sino European HVAC Congress and the Sino European Sanitation Congress.
For the 2013 edition, the HVAC congress, Asia’s most coveted platform for HVAC professionals, will focus on the theme “Discussions on the Concept and Technologies of Green & Energy-saving HVAC applications”. The forum will be divided into three sessions on central heating, individual heating and heat pump technology, with the goal of highlighting some of the industry’s biggest challenges to growth and development between China and Europe. Topics to be discussed at these sessions include “heat metering development”, “policies of energy-saving”, “state-of-the-art of boilers, wall-hung boilers, radiators and floor-heating” and “new energy-saving heat source – heat pumps”.
The Sino European Sanitation Congress, making its debut on 9 April at the 2013 show as a new highlight, will focus on the growth and upcoming trends in sanitation technology and design as well as policies for China and Europe.
