MCE 2026 to spotlight water efficiency through ‘Intelligent (use of) Water’ initiative

MILAN, Italy, 11 March 2026: The organiser of Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE), RX, said water will take centre stage at the exhibition through the “Intelligent (use of) Water” initiative, aimed at highlighting technologies and solutions designed to improve water efficiency and responsible use. Making the announcement through a Press Release, RX said the conference will be held from 24 to 27 March at Fiera Milano, Rho in Milan and said the event will bring together companies and professionals across HVAC, renewable energy, energy efficiency and water sectors.

According to the organiser, the initiative reflects growing attention to water as a critical resource increasingly affected by climate change and urban development pressures.

RX said the project will feature products, systems and technologies focused on water efficiency and said the initiative will involve exhibiting companies, industry associations and professionals from across the sector. The organiser added that the initiative will be hosted in halls 2/4 and 6/10 and said it will include participating companies designated as “Water Ambassadors”, representing sectors such as water treatment, plumbing, pumps and valves.

The organiser said conference areas within these halls will host a series of workshops and industry discussions intended to raise awareness of efficient water management and related technologies among visiting professionals. RX added that the sessions will be organised in collaboration with sector associations and supported by engineering bodies, including the Order of Engineers of the Province of Milan.

RX said the programme will include several panel discussions and workshops addressing water efficiency and sustainable infrastructure and added that sessions scheduled as part of the four-day exhibition conference programme include “CO2 is not the problem. So why do we use it to control ventilation?”, “Decarbonising our future: energy, economic and social aspects of smarter and digitalised buildings and cities”, “Heat Pump Acoustics: From Sound Signatures to Installation Impact” and more. The organiser added that these discussions will explore technological innovation, regulatory considerations and the role of infrastructure planning in improving water management.

RX said visitors will also be able to participate in workshops organised jointly by exhibitors and Just a Drop, a nonprofit organisation working to improve access to safe drinking water and sanitation in vulnerable communities. The organiser added that the collaboration aims to promote awareness of equitable and sustainable access to water globally.
