1. Expo Overview: China Refrigeration Expo 2026
As one of the most influential HVAC&R events globally, this year’s edition focuses on digital intelligence and carbon neutrality. With record-breaking participation, the exhibition serves as a key platform for technology exchange, business cooperation, and market trends.
2. SASWELL Booth Activity: Crowds from Morning to Evening
On the opening day, SASWELL’s booth (B3-B41) welcomed a steady stream of professional visitors. Shortly after the doors opened, long queues formed at the booth, creating a bustling atmosphere filled with lively conversations. The SASWELL team greeted every guest with high energy and professionalism. The meeting area remained nearly full all day, with multiple spontaneous technical discussions unfolding around the booth.
3. VAV Control Solution: The Undisputed "Booth Hit"
Among all the products displayed at SASWELL’s booth, the Variable Air Volume (VAV) control solution stood out as the undisputed “booth hit” – attracting the most inquiries, the longest dwell time, and the highest number of business cards exchanged. Many system integrators and HVAC engineers expressed strong interest after learning about the solution, and overseas purchasers repeatedly returned to the booth for in-depth discussions.
Built on an open, decoupled BACnet MS/TP architecture, SASWELL’s VAV controller works with any standard 0-10V actuator, eliminates vendor lock-in, and drastically reduces total cost of ownership compared to integrated VMA units. This value proposition resonated strongly with both OEMs and field contractors.
4. A Complete Product Portfolio
In addition to the VAV solution, SASWELL also showcased its color touch screen thermostats / wired controllers, the three-constant/five-constant premium real estate dew point control solution, the LoRaWAN energy-saving retrofit solution, the HEMS home energy management system, as well as proportional valves / balancing valves / thermal actuators, and the air conditioning control series (covering FCU/RTU/AHU terminals). Together, these products demonstrated SASWELL’s diverse portfolio – from home energy management to commercial building energy retrofits, and from premium real estate to critical environment intelligent control.
5. Visit Booth B3‑B41 Through April 10
The expo runs through April 10. SASWELL warmly welcomes more industry partners to visit Booth B3‑B41 to experience the booth’s energy and innovative solutions firsthand, and to discuss the future of HVAC intelligent control. Whether you are a system integrator, OEM, contractor, or facility manager, the SASWELL team is ready to discuss how their open, scalable control platforms can improve your next project.
