(13 Feb 2017, Singapore) Following two consecutively successful editions, the Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE) Asia exhibition will return for a third edition in Singapore. To be held from 12 to 14 September 2017 at the Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre, MCE Asia will continue to focus on energy efficiency in heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC-R), plumbing, sanitary accessories and solar energy equipment. Preparations are already in full swing as a succession of leading brands across the globe confirmed an exciting showcase of their latest innovations during MCE Asia 2017.
Growing demand for energy efficiency in Asia Pacific
With rising populations and increasing income levels in emerging markets, construction activities in Asia Pacific is expected to burgeon. Coupled with emerging green/smart building criterions, government support for sustainability and growing consumer concerns, the global HVAC-R market is expected to generate over $68.93 billion value by 20221, while the global photovoltaic market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.30% between 2014 and 2020, to be worth $345.59 billion by 20202. Asia Pacific is expected to be the main contributor to this growth.
MCE Asia: Converging and Empowering the HVAC, Water & Energy community
As the Asian edition of Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE) – Europe’s longest running trade exhibition for environmentally-friendly comfort technology, MCE Asia is not just unique in its 3-in-1 focus on HVAC-R, Water & Solar Energy, but is also a conduit to many industry giants across Europe offering state-of-the-art technologies that enhance energy efficiency in these 3 segments.
MCE Asia 2017 visitors will be able to meet leading brands like AGC Asia Pacific, Ariston Thermo, AAF, Belimo Actuators, Big Ass Fans, Camfil, ebm-papst, Reflex Winkelmann and more.

“We are excited to be showcasing our latest innovations among fellow industry giants at MCE Asia 2017. Among the many marketing outreach channels that Reed Exhibitions (the organiser) has planned for us, we’re particularly looking forward to the Mostra Xchange seminar where we will be sharing the deep know-how for our latest products,” said Mr William Wong, General Manager of AAF Singapore, a first-time exhibitor at MCE Asia.
