KEYTER Group sponsors CYTEF 2026 and strengthens its collaboration with the University of Malaga in research, refrigeration and efficient climate control
KEYTER Group, comprising KEYTER, INTARCON, GENAQ and KICONEX, will participate as a sponsor of CYTEF 2026, the 13th Iberian Congress and 11th Ibero-American Congress on Refrigeration Sciences and Techniques, which will take place in Malaga next week.
The congress will bring together researchers, universities, companies and professionals linked to the fields of refrigeration, climate control, energy efficiency, natural refrigerants, digitalisation and new technologies applied to cooling. For KEYTER Group, this participation represents a further demonstration of its commitment to knowledge transfer, applied research and ongoing collaboration with the university ecosystem.
KEYTER Group’s relationship with the University of Malaga is framed by a shared vision: bringing industry closer to research and contributing to the development of technological solutions capable of responding to the major challenges facing the HVAC+R sector. Decarbonisation, energy efficiency, advanced control, the digitalisation of installations and the sustainable management of resources are key areas in which the group works through its different companies.
During CYTEF 2026, GENAQ and KICONEX will take part in the congress technical programme with presentations related to innovation, sustainability and the application of new technologies to the sector. GENAQ, specialised in atmospheric water generation, will address the potential of this technology to produce drinking water from air humidity in contexts where efficiency, autonomy and sustainability are strategic factors. KICONEX, for its part, will share its vision on digitalisation, connectivity and the intelligent control of installations, areas that are increasingly decisive in optimising the energy performance of thermal systems.
In addition, KEYTER Group will be present in the congress exhibition area, where it will share with attendees, researchers and sector professionals its experience in advanced climate control solutions, industrial and commercial refrigeration, atmospheric water generation and IoT systems applied to HVAC+R installations.
The sponsorship of CYTEF 2026 reinforces KEYTER Group’s commitment to technical congresses as essential spaces for the advancement of the sector. These events make it possible to connect scientific knowledge with industrial reality, generate new opportunities for collaboration and bring future generations of engineers and technicians closer to the real challenges of climate control and refrigeration.
From its industrial facilities in Lucena, Cordoba, KEYTER Group designs and manufactures solutions that reach more than 70 countries, helping to position Andalusia as a leading technological hub in efficient climate control, sustainable refrigeration, atmospheric water generation and the digitalisation of installations.
Through its participation in CYTEF 2026, KEYTER Group reaffirms its commitment to innovation, technical talent and university-business collaboration as drivers of development for a more efficient, sustainable and connected HVAC+R sector.
