The countdown is on. In less than one month ARBSQLD will open its doors for the first time in Brisbane on 27–28 August, bringing together 120 leading exhibitors for the state’s largest HVAC&R and building services event. Held at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, ARBSQLD will showcase the latest in heating, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration and building services technology that’s designed to meet the fast-growing needs of Queensland’s rapidly expanding infrastructure and construction sectors.

ARBSQLD will also feature a curated Tech Talks program that provides free and fast-paced sessions across both days of the exhibition. Delivered by engineers, consultants and technical specialists, the sessions will explore topics including seismic-ready HVAC design, operational energy modelling and indoor air quality.

Ahead of ARBSQLD is the release of a new white paper titled The Heat Is On: Why Queensland is Ground Zero for HVAC&R Innovation, authored by ARBS Chair Professor Tony Arnel. The paper explores the climate, policy and market forces positioning Queensland as a key testing ground for HVAC&R innovation, from Brisbane 2032 opportunities to energy efficiency and digital transformation.

Amanda Searle, CEO of ARBS Exhibitions, said ARBSQLD is purpose-built for Queensland’s growing professional base. “ARBSQLD is a focused, local version of Australia’s flagship HVAC&R event and is designed to connect Queensland professionals with national and global industry leaders, new technologies and timely insights. With more than 120 exhibitors and our Tech Talks program, this is a must-attend event for anyone in the industry,” she says.
