On the 9th of August, 621 players in the HVAC-R industry rushed through the doors of the Adelaide Convention Centre to learn about the future of the industry, mingle with their fellow fridgie’s and win a swag of exciting prizes!

The Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Expo (RACE) is the best place to see the technology available now, what’s in the pipeline, and to learn about the experience and service Actrol and the Reece Group network can provide.

RACE goers eased into the day, visiting over 50 brand stands, asking all the curly questions to our industry experts. From Conex to Tecumseh, our world class brands became a centrepiece of the show.

The WorldSkills competition threw a bit of healthy competition into the mix, with some of South Australia’s best apprentices fighting it out for a spot in next year’s national competition in Sydney. There’s some real talent in the future of our industry!

The evening rounded out with three training seminars; Online tools, highlighting the features of our online business tool maX, Conex Banninger’s revolutionary press system MaxiPro, and the Future of Refrigerant.

Without the constant support of South Australian locals and national suppliers, RACE Adelaide wouldn’t have been as spectacular as it was. We’d like to thank every single person who came along and shared their excitement for this great industry.

“The WorldSkills competition showed off some real talent for the future of our industry.”
