AVAI CHINA 2026 to Connect Global HVACR Professionals with China’s Manufacturing Market
The 17th Asia-Pacific International Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, Ventilation & Cold Chain Technology Expo (AVAI CHINA 2026) will be held from September 16–18, 2026, at the China Import and Export Fair Complex in Guangzhou, China. Organized by Guangdong Grandeur International Exhibition Group, the event will bring together manufacturers, distributors, contractors, importers and other professionals from across the global HVACR industry.
With 16 successful editions, AVAI CHINA has served nearly 2,500 companies and attracted around 300,000 professional visitors worldwide. The 2026 edition will cover approximately 30,000 square meters and is expected to welcome more than 600 exhibitors and over 35,000 professional visitors from more than 40 countries.
Covering the Full HVACR and Cold Chain Value Chain
AVAI CHINA 2026 will showcase a comprehensive range of products and technologies across refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation and cold chain applications. The exhibition will feature commercial and industrial refrigeration equipment, refrigeration and cold storage systems, industrial chillers, commercial refrigeration systems, cold rooms and cold chain logistics solutions.
The air conditioning and ventilation sector will include central and residential air conditioning systems, air-source heat pumps, ventilation equipment, air handling units, fresh air systems and energy-efficient technologies.
The exhibition will also present refrigeration components and materials, including compressors, condensers, evaporators, valves, pipelines, insulation materials and controllers. Building automation, smart control systems, sensors, intelligent cold chain management, alternative refrigerant solutions and energy-saving technologies will further expand the scope of the event.
Supporting International Business Cooperation
In addition to product displays, AVAI CHINA 2026 will provide opportunities for business matchmaking and technical exchange. Dedicated B2B matchmaking programs will connect exhibitors with international buyers, distributors, importers, contractors and project developers based on their sourcing and cooperation requirements.
A factory visit program will also be organized for overseas buyers, providing opportunities to visit Chinese manufacturing facilities and gain a closer understanding of production capabilities, technologies and supply-chain resources.
Forums, technical conferences and networking activities will bring together industry professionals to discuss market trends, technological developments, energy efficiency and sustainable HVACR solutions.
Expanding Opportunities Across the Asian Market
As demand for energy-efficient cooling, smart buildings, cold chain infrastructure and sustainable HVACR technologies continues to grow across Asia, international companies are increasingly looking for opportunities to establish regional partnerships and expand into emerging markets.
Alongside AVAI CHINA 2026, the organizer will also host the ARHC–ASEAN RHVAC & Cleanroom Industry Expo 2027 (ARHC 2027) from March 17–19, 2027, at IMPACT Exhibition Centre in Bangkok, Thailand. The event will focus on refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation, cleanroom technologies, indoor air quality and related solutions.
Together, the two exhibitions will provide complementary platforms for companies seeking to develop business connections in China and ASEAN. AVAI CHINA 2026 will offer access to China's extensive HVACR manufacturing and supply chain, while ARHC 2027 will provide a gateway to Thailand and the wider Southeast Asian market.
For HVACR manufacturers, distributors and industry professionals, AVAI CHINA 2026 will provide an opportunity to discover new technologies, develop business partnerships and explore new opportunities within the rapidly developing Asian HVACR market.
