Return of the well-received Overseas Area provides a gateway for international HVAC brands to enter the Chinese market

Thanks to the government’s coal-to-clean-energy initiatives, China is experiencing a rapid growth in the HVAC market. The debut appearance of the Overseas Area in the 2018 edition successfully allowed foreign companies to extend their market reach to China. Highly regarded by participating exhibitors, this area will again return to ISH China & CIHE in 2019, gathering prominent brands from countries such as the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Turkey. International brands that have confirmed their participation in this zone include AMETEK, Bowers Eclipse, Cordivari, Groppalli, Heatmise, KANE, MADAS, Polidoro, Sermeta, Shinwoo Valve, Vexve and ZERO.

The Overseas Area presents an unrivalled opportunity for exhibitors to find new markets. One of the participating exhibitors in the 2018 edition, Sermeta, expressed strong approval on the effectiveness of this zone. Mr Joseph Le Mer, President of the company said: “We are targeting the entire Chinese market, and with the government’s policies here, we see that this market is the future. We’re here to explore new prospects in China.” Sermeta considered ISH China & CIHE as an indispensable platform, and has already decided to return to the 2019 show. “The role this fair plays in the industry is very different to Europe as it’s more focused on China. China takes up a significant part of the worldwide market, which makes it worth us being here,” Mr Le Mer further explained.
