In an exciting move, next year will herald a new era with a planned makeover for ISH 2019 as the show re-invents itself in terms of layout and visual impact to set new standards for future shows.

The inclusion of the newly-built Hall 12 requires a fundamental rethink of the layout of all the halls. The new grouping for the various product groups and themes creates a clearer overview and greater transparency for visitors and achieves all kinds of synergies for the exhibitors. Alongside the new concept for the exhibition layout, ISH is also changing the sequence of days on which it is held. For the first time, the show will begin on Monday and end on Friday.
More than 2,400 exhibitors, including all the market leaders and technological pioneers from Germany and abroad, will be showcasing their products, many of them for the first time in the world, from 11 to 15 March 2019. The trade fair is the sector’s international meeting place par excellence – in 2017 some 64 percent of all exhibitors and 40 percent of visitors came from outside Germany. And the trend continues upwards.
With its broad range of pioneering, future-proof products and services for building services engineering, the biennially-held leading world trade fair highlights a large number of practical solutions and addresses specifically some of the political and economic issues of the day. The continually growing levels of international participation enables the sector to discuss many of their problems and solutions in increasingly interdisciplinary contexts too.
The ISH Water section concentrates, first and foremost, on sustainable sanitation solutions and ultra-modern bathroom design. This area concerns intelligent water-management systems and how best to make sure they are secure and safe and how best to regulate and monitor them. And clean drinking water, too, is a hugely important area, specifically against the background of increasing urbanisation. At the same time, we must not forget design considerations in the bathroom. The challenges for bathroom planning in the future continue to reflect the need to bring together the various aspects that result from demographic change, together with issues such as health, wellness, comfort and convenience, not forgetting the sparing use of resources. And there will be plenty of exhibitors showcasing ground-breaking solutions for the bathroom, here.
In the course of current technological change, digitalisation has, more than anything, impacted significantly on all areas at ISH. In the ISH Energy section, which has grown significantly in recent times, everything revolves around intelligent and efficient building services technology. Topics such as Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) and hybrid heating systems are crucially important for this segment.
Under the heading of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) the focus is on modern ventilation systems, as well as on centralised and decentralised solutions for both new builds and renovated properties alike. Energy efficiency and a comfortable atmosphere in the room, the phasing out of F gases and the resultant reduction in the availability of suitable refrigerants, as well as the development of alternatives, are all to be discussed, along with the many technical challenges facing the sector.
