ARBS 2026: Showcasing Innovation, Strengthening Industry Connections, and Celebrating Our Raffle Winner
From 5–7 May 2026, the JAVAC team proudly exhibited at ARBS 2026 — Australia’s largest HVAC&R and Building Services event — held at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre.
Over three highly productive days, ARBS once again provided an outstanding platform to connect with the Australian HVAC&R industry and present the latest tools, technology and solutions from our global brand portfolio.
The Stand
Our stand attracted strong interest throughout the exhibition, with a continuous stream of visitors exploring new products and live demonstrations.
At this year’s exhibition, visitors had the opportunity to explore a broad range of newly released HVAC&R tools and technologies, including advanced leak detection instruments, digital manifolds, recovery and evacuation equipment, combustion analysers, and condensate management solutions from several of the industry’s most respected international manufacturers.
Featured products included the latest innovations from globally recognised brands such as INFICON, FIELDPIECE, TESTO, JAVAC and WIPCOOL, with live demonstrations throughout the event highlighting their performance, precision and practical applications in the field.
From advanced digital diagnostic instruments and leak detection technology to vacuum pumps, refrigerant tools and condensate management solutions, attendees had the opportunity to see firsthand how these products are helping HVAC&R professionals improve efficiency, accuracy and reliability in the field.
The positive feedback received across all three days reinforced the growing demand for high-quality, professional-grade tools and equipment in the Australian market.
The Team
Behind every successful exhibition is a dedicated team.
In the lead-up to ARBS 2026, our sales and marketing staff worked tirelessly to design, build and prepare the stand, often putting in long hours to ensure every detail was executed to the highest standard.
During the event, our team engaged with thousands of industry professionals, including HVAC&R contractors and technicians, wholesalers and purchasing managers, TAFE and university educators, apprentices and students, as well as long-standing customers and business partners.
These conversations provided valuable opportunities to strengthen existing relationships, establish new connections, and further expand the reach of the JAVAC, INFICON, FIELDPIECE, TESTO and WIPCOOL brands throughout Australia and New Zealand.
The Winner
In partnership with HVAC Direct, our online reseller specialising in HVAC&R tools and equipment, we once again hosted a highly successful raffle during ARBS 2026.
The first prize was a JAVAC SHARK-141 Cordless Vacuum Pump — one of the most innovative and powerful vacuum pumps in the JAVAC range.
We are pleased to congratulate Daniel Adams, who was drawn as the first prize winner.
This marks the third time JAVAC has proudly supplied premium raffle prizes to support HVAC Direct at ARBS, reflecting our continued commitment to helping our reseller partners grow their presence and engage with the broader HVAC&R community.
Thank You
We would like to sincerely thank everyone who visited our stand, participated in the demonstrations, entered the raffle and spent time with our team.
ARBS 2026 was an outstanding event, and we are proud to be part of such a dynamic and professional industry.
We look forward to continuing to support HVAC&R professionals with world-class tools and solutions and to seeing you again at the next ARBS.
