Chillventa 2014 sets new records

Chillventa continues to set records and has improved all its exhibition parameters. "For the first time Chillventa has topped 30,000 trade visitors, an increase of 7 % compared with the exhibition in 2012, and attracted 984 exhibitors – 70 more than two years ago. These figures show the great commitment and confidence of Chillventa's visitors and exhibitors. It is the key gathering of the national and international market players in the refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation and heat pump segments, " says Richard Krowoza, Member of the Management Board at NürnbergMesse.

The large international involvement at Chillventa was again particularly impressive. 56 % of the visitors and 67 % of the exhibitors come from abroad. More than 30, 000 visitors represent over 110 countries throughout the world.

"Chillventa achieved these records despite the rail strike by the Gewerkschaft der Lokführer (GDL – Locomotive Drivers Trade Union) on the second day and the attendance from Germany also grew appreciably. However, just as important as the quantitative data is the quality of the visiting professionals. The exhibiting companies expressed their appreciation of the professional concentration and the high degree of decision-making authority, " says Alexander Stein, Director Exhibitions Chillventa at NürnbergMesse.

Chillventa's basic theme of "Chillventa Connecting Experts" is not only actively presented at the exhibition, but also in the supporting programme. The successful Chillventa Congressing took place the day before the exhibition under the direction of the expert, Dr. Rainer Jakobs. The 250 international participants were offered a top-class programme.

Guided tours for specific target groups, tours and several special presentations provided comprehensive and targeted information for many visitors.

A special highlight on the last day of the exhibition was the visit by Konny Reimann, TV emigrant and refrigeration and air conditioning fitter. Visitors and companies could get to know the pleasant new Texan and test his specialist knowledge at a talk show and autograph session.

The next Chillventa takes place in the Exhibition Centre Nuremberg from 11–13 October 2016.
