Sustainability in refrigeration technology at Chillventa

Meeting of experts

Overall energy efficiency, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and sustainability remain the driving forces behind product and system development. We bring together experts from all over the world to discuss this and innovations such as the heat pump as the future of sustainable heating and other segments of our trade fair. Other key topics include waste heat utilisation and avoidance in trade and industry. Hybrid systems that provide cooling and heating at the same time are ‘real’ sustainability.

We continuously improve the footprint of our services. To achieve this, we invest in our facilities and collaborate with service partners who share our values regarding the environment and society. Together, we create offerings and design our events to be a responsible experience – from resource-saving stand construction solutions to catering with local food, reusable dishes, and recycling systems. With our charging stations for electric cars, discounted train tickets, and free public transport use, we support sustainable travel.
