With two weeks to go, Chillventa 2026 has set out a supporting programme built around expert knowledge-sharing. More than 1,100 exhibitors from over 50 countries will gather in Nuremberg from 13 to 15 October, with the Chillventa CONGRESS taking place the day before.
True to its "Connecting Experts" motto, this year's edition keeps heat pumps and refrigerants at the centre of the programme, in the context of sustainability and the circular economy. Over 200 presentations across the specialist forums will cover topics from AI in refrigeration and industrial heat pumps to data centre cooling and the first 100 days of the new Ecodesign rules. On 12 October, the CONGRESS will add in-depth sessions, including the ASERCOM + EPEE Symposium on the refrigerant transition and the F-gas regulatory framework.
New this year, the Future Hub (Hall 9) offers contractors practical insights into digitalisation, AI and recruitment, while special presentations and the German Championship for Refrigeration Technicians bring real-world practice to the show floor. (Read more)
