Chillventa 2026 is moving into its next content phase as preparations for the Call for Presentations for the Chillventa CONGRESS and specialist forums near completion. According to the organiser, the booked display area is already larger than at the 2024 event, underlining continued exhibitor interest ahead of the trade fair in October.
From 2026, the addition of Hall 1 will increase exhibition space. The organiser said the event’s focus topics will remain unchanged, while the new hall will provide more room for growth across refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation, heat pumps, and C&I technology.
The Chillventa CONGRESS and specialist forums will again cover refrigeration, AC, ventilation, heat pumps, applications, education and regulations. The upcoming Call for Presentations will invite industry specialists to submit proposals on developments, best practices and technological trends, including refrigeration technology, efficiency solutions, regulatory issues, digitalisation, sustainability and new business models.
Chillventa is also expanding its international network through a new joint venture between NürnbergMesse and Fima in Hangzhou. The new company, NürnbergMesse Fima Exhibition Co., Ltd., is intended to connect Europe, China and South-East Asia through the Chillventa Global Network, alongside RACC China and the new RACC ASEAN in Thailand.
“The response from exhibitors has been excellent and is reflected in the substantial number of registrations that demonstrate the industry’s commitment,” said Daniela Heinkel, Director of Chillventa. She added: “Chillventa is a byword for first-hand knowledge acquisition, dialogue among peers, and international networking – Chillventa Connecting Experts – and we are already looking forward to experiencing all that on site again in October along with our customers.”
