Nuremberg, Germany, 6 March 2018: Event organiser NürnbergMesse and publishing house Bauverlag will present this year’s Chillventa Award at an official ceremony on October 16, 2018, the organisers said in a Press communiqué.

According to Chillventa, the Award, instituted in 2016, recognises unique projects by teams of experts in four categories – commercial refrigeration, industrial refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pumps. The winners in each category will be honoured during Chillventa, which will be held from October 16 to 18, the communiqué said.

The communiqué said that the jury – in keeping with the Chillventa motto “Connecting Experts” – will consider, in particular, how project stakeholders work together, from conceptual formulation, planning and system engineering to operation of the system.
