Installation in the sanitation, heating and air-conditioning sector

How tools, transport and pre-assembly increase efficienc.

In the sanitation, heating and air-conditioning sector, efficient and innovative solutions are crucial to speeding up the installation process. ISH 2025 will be presenting the latest developments - from high-quality tools and equipment and well-organised storage solutions and efficient transportation, right through to industrial pre-assembly methods.

The application areas in the solution field of installation at a glance:

Solutions for the installation

Tools and fastening

Tools and fastening solutions constitute the backbone of every successful installation job in the sanitation, heating and air-conditioning industry. Modern pipe-cutters, thread-cutting machinery, bending equipment and press tools not only make for precise and time-efficient work but also contribute to quality assurance. Technological innovations such as exoskeletons, too, can be used in the trade and protect the physical health of the plumbers and installation engineers. They enable people to work for longer periods without tiring and significantly reduce the risk of injury. According to the German Sanitation, Heating and Air-Conditioning Association (ZVSHK) exoskeletons are able to drastically reduce the strain on the shoulders. So, modern tools not only serve to ensure high-quality and secure installation, they also reduce strain on the operatives.

Industrial pre-assembly

Industrial pre-assembly is revolutionising installation in the sanitation, heating and air-conditioning sector. Pre-assembled pipework, fittings and heating components make for significant time savings on site and minimise sources of error. Through the use of pre-assembled building blocks, installation procedures can be significantly speeded up, providing considerable help for sanitation, heating and air-conditioning businesses, not least in the light of the shortage of skilled workers. Sector experts estimate savings of up to 30 percent.

The latest advancements in pre-assembly techniques, which both guarantee high levels of quality and consistency, and, at the same time, help reduce installation costs, will be on show at ISH 2025.

Operation, storage and transport

Efficient operational procedures not only require the use of modern tools and equipment, but also demand well-designed logistics. Well-organised storage facilities, equipped with the necessary materials and components, play a central role in ensuring a smooth workflow. At the same time, it is particularly important that businesses in the sector know exactly what is where and in what quantities, as well as when which parts need to be re-ordered.

Transport options, such as specially equipped vehicles are equally crucial. Whether small van or larger bulk transport vehicle – they should provide sufficient storage space and support the tradespeople on site. Of increasing relevance in urban situations are sustainable solutions such as e-vehicles and cargo bikes. These environmentally friendly alternatives enable flexible and efficient working in densely populated areas, too, without detriment to the environment.

Further information about operation, storage and transport

Exhibitors at ISH 2025 have many solutions on display which make everyday life easier for the installation trades. These include, for example, storage equipment, transport options and vehicle fitments.

There is something at ISH for everyone and anyone looking for the latest trends and innovations in the field of installation technology and plumbing. Visitors will be able both to get information and to get hands-on experience of how the use of state-of-the-art tools, optimised logistics together with industrial pre-assembly can make their work more efficient and sustainable, at the same time as making life easier for the operatives involved, both in terms of time spent and physical effort. Come and get inspiration from the many exhibitors and find out how you, too, can optimise your installation processes.
