State-of-the-art intelligent HVAC technologies from leading worldwide brands were displayed
With increasing demands for intelligent products and new environmental protection policies launched by the Chinese government, the HVAC industry is welcoming ample business opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers. Exhibitors at the 2016 show, appropriately themed “Intelligent HVAC”, were able to explore the opportunities the industry has to offer.
This year, KNX International participated in ISH China & CHIE for the first time and hosted the “KNX Technical Seminar” with the theme “The Technology and Application for KNX Home and Building Control – KNX IoT City”. KNX International member, Schneider Electric (China), was an exhibitor at the fair. Mr Henry Zhou, Senior Marketing Manager of the company, stated: “The popularity of Intelligent HVAC technologies and products is huge in China. With the country's middle-class becoming wealthier, residents are demanding higher-quality products to satisfy their needs for comfortable living, including energy-efficient heating, smart controls, ventilation, air conditioning and security systems. KNX wants to increase its influence in China’s intelligent HVAC market and explore more customers through ISH China & CIHE.”
The green HVAC market is growing along with the development of building energy efficiency technologies in China and many overseas enterprises tried to tap this industry sector through ISH China & CIHE. For example, the German and Italian Pavilions expanded in size for the 2016 fair, occupied over 1,000 sqm of exhibition space. In addition to these pavilions, there were individual exhibitors hailing from Finland, Japan, Korea and other countries.
Over 70 concurrent events revealed industry trends and stimulated idea exchange
