ebm-papst has opened a 3,000 m² Air Technology Hub in Shah Alam, Malaysia, combining local assembly, RMA analysis, fan health monitoring and digital services under one roof. The facility extends the company's regional hub network—alongside its South China hub—and is positioned to serve growing HVAC, data-center and energy-efficient-building demand across Southeast Asia.
ebm-papst is expanding its NEXAIRA.Fit ventilation retrofit programme with a financial guarantee of projected energy savings, backed by Great Lakes Insurance SE, a Munich Re subsidiary. The guarantee is designed to reduce investment risk for building operators modernising existing HVAC systems.
Ariada has introduced a dual-airflow technology for open refrigerated gondolas: two independent air streams — one for product cooling and one forming an air curtain at the display front. The solution is already available in the Geneva line and allows operation without doors or physical barriers while maintaining a stable internal temperature.
BEE, UNEP Cool Coalition, and AEEE released the Packhouse Design Guidelines in September 2026, offering a practical framework for building sustainable, energy-efficient integrated packhouses for horticultural produce in India. The document covers building design, refrigeration system optimisation, and renewable energy integration, with estimated electricity savings of approximately 2.92 TWh from building measures and an additional 1.97 TWh from efficient equipment by 2037.
Ridan BTP is now delivered with a pre-configured Ridan Cloud (Cloud-Control) dispatching system. Basic functionality is available free of charge and indefinitely. According to the manufacturer’s deployment experience, the number of emergency service calls is reduced by more than 50%.
According to ebm-papst, the installation of 61 EC fans and a NEXAIRA digital monitoring layer at Berlin's Pankow Town Hall Center reduced energy consumption by 46% and saved roughly 76,000 euros between 2021 and 2025. The operator is already planning further modernization steps.
The approach assesses evaporator icing rather than relying solely on a timer.
