I attended Frigair on Thursday 5th of June and was warmly welcomed by the events friendly staff who quickly had me scanned and on my way. Walking into the show you could feel a busy buzz of excitement hanging in the air and I was surprised how good the layout was done. I could clearly see alot of effort and planning went into this shoe.
All and all a great experience, meeting with potential new suppliers and catching up with exciting suppliers as well.
Faaaaanks, FrigAir 2025, See you next year !

FRIGAIR 2025 Expo: The HVAC Event Is Changing the Game in South Africa
If FRIGAIR 2025 were a South African blockbuster, day two would be the high-energy sequelβbigger, better, and packed with innovations that had industry experts talking like it was the latest rugby final. Think of it as the Springboks vs. All Blacks of HVAC exhibitionsβhigh stakes, groundbreaking technology, and some serious industry heavyweights.
From the moment attendees stepped onto the expo floor, the energy was unmistakable. Refrigeration units showcased new energy-saving tricks; while air-conditioning systems flexed their efficiency muscles like they were preparing for a heatwave in the Karoo. Live demos stole the show, with exhibitors proving why their latest creations deserve the spotlight. And letβs not forget the knowledge-sharing sessionsβthink business summits, but with more talk of thermal dynamics and less of βfinding your purpose.β
But what really made the day legendary? The networking magic. Professionals swapped ideas faster than a braai master flipping boerewors, and game-changing partnerships were born. If business deals had theme music, thereβd be epic orchestral swells accompanying every handshake.
And letβs talk numbersβbecause the HVAC industry in South Africa is evolving at lightning speed. The South African HVAC market is projected to grow from ZAR 10 billion in 2025 to ZAR 14.5 billion by 2033, driven by urban expansion and the demand for energy-efficient solutions. With green building investments rising by 15% year-on-year, smart HVAC technologies are becoming the go-to choice for commercial and residential developments. Additionally, smart HVAC systems that optimize climate control via AI and smartphone integration are gaining traction, offering lower operational costs and improved energy efficiency.
For South African businesses and homeowners, shifting to energy-efficient HVAC solutions is not just about sustainabilityβitβs about cutting costs in an economy where electricity prices keep climbing. Upgrading to a high-efficiency HVAC system can reduce electricity usage by up to 20%, helping to ease the strain of ever-rising utility bills. Smart thermostats, which are gaining traction locally, can save homeowners up to 15% on heating and cooling costs annually, making them a must-have for any budget-conscious household or business.
With one day left, FRIGAIR 2025 is setting the stage for an epic finale. If day two delivered this level of innovation and energy, who knows what surprises the final day will bring?

As someone who is in logistics under the Engineering industry it was extremely exciting to be part of FRIGAIR because i got to see how our products being assembled together to create a larger and more functional unit.
I was looking forward to seeing not only our customers but also our competitors. But the one thing i was looking forward to was mostly to network and meet people within the HVAC industry and learn more about the types of products that each company was displaying.
My favorite stall was obviously Danfoss as that where i currently work but besides that they had the most creative and eye-catching display. The stall that i was mostly mesmerized by and where i spent most of my time at was the logistics system engineering display, now i love everything and anything logistics and warehouse and seeing their racking system and learning more about how they work was the highlight of my day.
In a nutshell, it was honestly a great experience and i would recommend it to everyone to go check it out.

What an Amazing First Day at FRIGAIR 2025!
This was my very first time attending FRIGAIR, and I absolutely loved it! As someone whoβs still new to the HVAC&R industry, I wasnβt sure what to expect but the experience exceeded all expectations.
I had so much fun exploring the exhibition floor and meeting some of our current suppliers in person. It was a great opportunity to connect, learn more about the industry, and network with professionals who share the same passion.
What stood out the most was the welcoming atmosphere, everyone was so open, helpful, and willing to share insights. I left Day 1 feeling inspired and excited for whatβs ahead in this industry.
Thank you, FRIGAIR, for such an unforgettable experience! Iβm looking forward to the next two days.
