China International Trade Fair for Sanitation, Heating and Air-conditioning

Date: 10–12 March 2010
Venue: China National Convention Center, Beijing,
            China

The European Heating Industry and the China District Heating Association have announced their exclusive and continued long-term support to ISH China, one of China’s biggest and best-known HVAC industry events. Held on a biennial basis, the next show will take place 10 – 12 March 2010 at the China National Convention Center in Beijing. It is co-organised by Messe Frankfurt Shanghai Co Ltd, the China District Heating Association (CDHA) and the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade Zhejiang Sub-council.

Ms Chen Huaishen, General Secretary of CDHA stressed that ISH China is the only heating, ventilation and air-conditioning show in China supported by the association because ISH is the leading global brand and exhibition for the sanitation, heating and air-conditioning industries.

“CDHA has been supporting ISH China for 13 years, since its first edition in 1996,” Ms Chen explained. “During this time we have cooperated with Messe Frankfurt who have abundant international resources to build a prime international platform for China’s heating industry. Both of us have successfully developed this show and our cooperation is growing and will last long into the future.”

The European Heating Association (EHI) is another long-time supporter of ISH China through a partnership that began in 1996. EHI deals with the heating market from an industry point of view and its scope includes the European regulatory framework, its implementation, and global aspects relating to the industry.

Mr Andreas Lücke, Secretary of EHI and Managing Director of Federal Industrial Association of Germany House, Energy and Environmental Technology (BDH) said the European and German heating industry has supported ISH China since it started in 1996. “We see the show as China’s most important business platform for the heating industry,” he said. “It is the only high quality show in China that guarantees quality professional visitors and this is why the high-tech European heating industry is happy to participate in ISH China.”

The Danish Board of District Heating is also a long time ISH China supporter since 2002. Ms Nathalie Chen, Secretary of the Danish Board of District Heating in China commented: “Many of our members have expressed strong interest in exhibiting at ISH China because they know the show attracts high quality visitors. They are looking to get more attention from China’s heating industry through ISH China.”

Organiser’s proven experience ensures high quality show
“This year sees the 50th anniversary of the ISH brand so Messe Frankfurt brings a lot of knowledge and experience to ISH China,” explains Mr Richard Li, Deputy General Manager of Messe Frankfurt in China. “Over the past 12 years our ability to produce high quality exhibitions has helped us to firmly establish ISH China as the leading fair for China’s HVAC industry. We are continually evolving since China’s entry into the World Trade Organisation and are matching the rapid growth of the country’s infrastructure and construction sector. Apart from showcasing leading and innovative products, ISH China offers concurrent events such as the popular Sino-European Congress and technical symposiums, with topics ranging from market trends to heating and plumbing technologies.“
