5 Exhibitors to Visit at Chillventa Expo Nuremberg 2026

Copeland develops and manufactures compression technologies, controls, and software for commercial and industrial heating, cooling, and refrigeration applications. The company's portfolio spans scroll, screw, and centrifugal compressor platforms alongside connected software tools for cold chain management.

Copeland has positioned itself across several converging market demands in Europe: the shift to natural refrigerants such as CO2 and propane, the rapid growth of data center cooling infrastructure, and the industrial push toward high-temperature heat pumps for decarbonization. Its Bueno Analytics platform extends the hardware offer into operational efficiency software, giving buyers a path from equipment procurement to site-level performance monitoring.

Danfoss Industries Pvt. Ltd. is the Indian subsidiary of Danfoss A/S, a Danish family-owned group founded in 1933 and headquartered in Nordborg, Denmark, with approximately 42,000 employees operating across more than 100 countries. The India entity, registered in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, serves as a distribution arm for the group's broad HVACR portfolio, which spans compressors, electronic controls, variable-speed drives, sensors and heat exchangers for refrigeration, heating and cooling applications.

The group's portfolio depth gives OEMs and system integrators a single-source path through a refrigerant transition. Danfoss supports natural and low-GWP refrigerants including CO2, propane (R290), ammonia and R1234ze across commercial and industrial heat pumps, food retail refrigeration and data center liquid cooling. Application Development Centers provide OEM simulation and controls support, including propane heat pump systems scaled to 700 kW and industrial heat pumps delivering supply temperatures up to 120 degrees Celsius.

Bitzer India Pvt. Ltd. is the Indian subsidiary of BITZER SE, incorporated in Mumbai in 2007 and headquartered at Powai Plaza, Mumbai, Maharashtra. The subsidiary distributes and supports BITZER's full compressor portfolio across India, covering reciprocating compressors, screw compressors (CSV, CSW and OS.A95 series), ORBIT scroll compressors, condensing units, heat exchangers, and pressure vessels. Seven offices spanning Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Lucknow, and Cochin provide national coverage, backed by the parent group's presence in more than 90 countries and a global workforce exceeding 4,300.

BITZER India operates a Green Point service network in Mumbai stocking spare parts, oils, and compressors for local availability. The subsidiary also assembles products locally, including the Roadstar compressor for diesel buses, and supports buyers through a digital ecosystem comprising BITZER SOFTWARE, BEST SOFTWARE, myBITZER, ePARTS, and the SPOT App for compressor selection, commissioning, monitoring, and spare-parts sourcing. The OS.A95 and CSV screw compressors received the Acrex India Award of Excellence in Green Products (2019), and the ORBIT scroll compressors received the Acrex India Award of Excellence in Sustainable Design.

ebm-papst Mulfingen GmbH & Co. KG, headquartered in Mulfingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany since 1963, manufactures EC fans, motors, and drive technology for air, refrigeration, and climate applications. The group employs 13,055 people across 27 production sites with a commercial presence in nearly 50 countries, and reported group revenue of €2.236 billion in FY 2025/26, with its core Air Technology segment growing approximately 12% year-on-year.

Beyond components, ebm-papst has built a software and services layer through its NEXAIRA digital ecosystem, which combines 360-degree monitoring, predictive maintenance, and AI-driven optimization to cut fan energy consumption by up to 70%. The iQx EC motor for supermarket refrigeration is a direct 1:1 mechanical drop-in for split-pole and prior EC motors, complies with EN 60335-2-89 for flammable refrigerants including R290, and delivers up to 68% efficiency with a rated service life exceeding 40,000 hours, making it a practical retrofit path for food retailers facing ErP compliance deadlines.

GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft, headquartered in Düsseldorf and founded in 1881, is an international technology group employing more than 18,000 people across more than 150 countries. Its refrigeration and heating division supplies reciprocating and screw compressor packages, industrial heat pumps, control systems, valves, and digital monitoring tools to the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, cold-storage, and industrial process sectors. Fiscal year 2025 revenue was approximately EUR 5.5 billion, with organic sales growth of 3.7 percent.

GEA positions its compressor portfolio around measurable total cost of ownership reductions. The second-generation Grasso V series reciprocating compressor claims up to 25 percent lower maintenance costs and up to 25 percent more capacity compared with its predecessor, supported by electronically controlled maintenance intervals tracked through the GEA Omni control panel and the Grasso Maintenance Monitor. The welded compressor housing design achieves tight temperature separation and very low oil carry-over, often eliminating the need for a separate oil separator. Remote support is delivered through the Digital Operations Center and the InsightPartner Blu-Red Care service.
