In focus: The topics of VDMA Drucklufttechnik
Over 100 guests came together in Berlin on July 9, 2025 to discuss the GEG, EPBD and the role of mechanical engineering in the building and heating transition. The focus: technology-open, practical solutions for implementation in partnership.
ISO published the new ISO 18464 standard in May 2025. It describes a procedure for the design of energy-efficient hydraulic systems.
The international conference on rolling and plain bearings (June 17 - 18, 2026 in Dresden) will cover topics such as tribology and lubrication, bearing damage, NVH and many more.
A lack of new buildings, stalled refurbishment projects and rising costs are making the transformation of existing buildings towards climate neutrality more difficult. Viable concepts and a simplification of construction and approval practices are needed.
Energy efficiency measures in refrigeration technology help to achieve climate protection and economic efficiency targets. The Fachverband Allgemeine Lufttechnik therefore called together experts on the subject.
The new steering committee of the VDMA Building Technology Forum aims to play a more active role in the transformation of the building sector through innovative solutions and close cooperation between politics, industry and associations.
Imparting technical knowledge – Experts advise you individually
Buildings make a significant contribution to energy consumption and COâ‚‚ emissions. Energy-efficient buildings can drastically reduce these emissions. Outdated heating systems and inefficient technology lead to a considerable waste of energy.
The exclusive technology & standardisation information day for VDMA members offered exciting insights into new standards for energy-efficient hydraulic systems, the digital transformation with Fluid 4.0 and hydrogen as a key technology of the future.
Even though the new Building Energy Act (GEG) is often reduced to a "heating law" for the residential sector and is the subject of controversial debate, the GEG also contains groundbreaking changes for non-residential buildings.
Building automation for a sustainable future - full support for the new building energy law
The general meeting of the Automation Management for House Buildings trade association was held in Hamburg on October 13, 2023.
On April 18, 2023, the German cabinet presented a draft law to increase energy efficiency and amend the Energy Services Act. An overview of the current status.
Companies that want to modernize processes and invest in electricity and heat efficiency benefit from various - even lesser-known - funding opportunities at the federal and state levels.
Climate-neutral production is a challenge along the entire value chain and occupies many companies. For this reason, the VDMA has now published a practical guide for the mechanical and plant engineering sector.
The VDMA has compiled an "Oil & Gas, Petrochem Market Overview Malaysia" package. The package provides an overview of the structure and key players in the Oil & Gas and Petrochemistry industry in Malaysia. It covers the onshore and offshore sectors, the gas market and the petrochemical industry. Also included is the VDMA AGENTS List for Process Technology in Malaysia & Singapore. The sources are official publications by state authorities and industry agencies as well as a trade press article from 2017.
The AMG trade association is the sponsor of a series of VDMA standard sheets for the area of house and building automation
