Choose the right trade event: why HVAC&R Hub is right for you

Showcasing the latest advancements in heating, cooling and air quality control technologies, HVAC&R Hub is returning in June

Finding the right trade event is essential. If the area of interest it covers is too specialist or too broad, it is unlikely to attract visitors who want to buy what you have to sell. This is why IRHACE created the HVAC&R Hub – taking place at Auckland Showgrounds on June 25-26.

HVAC&R plays a pivotal role in New Zealand’s building, construction and design domains, making it the perfect fit to be positioned at the heart of BuildNZ.

Last year, over 5,000 industry visitors attended BuildNZ. This year, that number is expected to rise even higher with the event taking place alongside BuildNZ, Facilities Integrate and The National Safety Show.

“Trade events of this calibre are powerful face-to-face platforms, allowing companies to amplify their brand, expand their network, increase sales, stay competitive, launch new products, secure trade deals and discover news suppliers while fostering professional development,” says Lorraine Smith, head of trade sales at XPO Exhibitions.

In 2023, the HVAC&R Hub welcomed 221 exhibitors and 1,477 exhibiting staff – providing plenty of networking opportunities. Of the 5,000+ visiting industry professionals, 88 percent attended to see new products and source new suppliers.

“HVAC&R Hub offers unmatched opportunities for members to connect with decision-makers, establish B2B relationships and generate leads that would likely not have emerged without their participation in this industry trade event,” says Gina McMaster, CEO of IRHACE and HVAC&R industry associations.
