Febrava 2025 has a 40% increase in visitors and consolidates its leadership in the HVACR sector

The 23rd edition of Febrava, held September 9 - 12 at São Paulo Expo, definitively marked the history of the HVACR (heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration) sector. With record numbers and a pioneering delivery, the event brought together more than 35,000 visitors – a 40% increase compared to 2023 – and more than 600 exhibiting brands, a 25% increase in the number of participants.

The event also expanded its exhibition area by 20% and introduced two new pavilions: the Water Treatment Expo (WTE) and the Smart Heat Expo (SHE), increasing Febrava's reach and reinforcing its vocation for launching trends and paving the way for new links in the supply chain. Another highlight was the Innovation Seal, which recognized a record 118 solutions, a 55% increase compared to the previous edition.

“Febrava 2025 reflects the strength and dynamism of the sector, which is in full expansion, with growing consumption and an increasingly innovative and connected supply chain. This edition demonstrated, more than ever, that we are the strategic meeting place for business, networking and professional development,” says Tatiana Rassini, Febrava manager.

In addition to the exhibition, the intense schedule of content, experiences and launches was highlighted by exhibitors and visitors as one of the great differentiators. “I believe this was the edition with the greatest number of meetings, networking opportunities and business deals. The trade show fulfills an essential role in bringing technology and training closer together,” emphasized Uanderson Aguiar, technical instructor and Midea Carrier ambassador in Brazil.

The exhibiting brands also highlighted the strategic impact of the trade show. Nathalia Moraes, Marketing Manager at Bitzer, emphasized: “This edition was very important for us and exceeded all expectations, bringing visibility and opportunities to a highly qualified public.” For Nilson Yoshio, Marketing Director at Daikin, their presence was indispensable: “Febrava is the largest trade show in the sector, and being here was fundamental. The results exceeded our expectations. The market is thriving, with growing interest from people looking to participate in this business.”

With Impressive results, Febrava is consolidated as the largest and most important HVACR trade show in Latin America, and it has already announced its expansion. In 2026, the event will have an edition in Rio de Janeiro for the first time, from October 6th to 8th, at Riocentro, focusing on the industry and process management. The new edition already has the presence of 15 leading brands in the sector confirmed, including AIR SYS, Camilo Brandão, Daikin, Elgin, Gatti Química, Gree, Klimatix, Mastercool, Multivac, Projelmec, RAC, RLX, Sicflux, TCL and Uni Refrigeração.

“This was the biggest Febrava in history: we brought together more visitors, more companies and more innovations than ever before. The success of this edition inspires us to continue investing in initiatives that expand the brand, value the entire HVACR chain, and strengthen a sector that, according to ABRAVA, is expected to generate more than BRL 54 billion in business in 2025 alone,” Tatiana Rassini concludes.
