     The refrigeration industry remains impacted by global heatwaves, with demand continuing to rise. Leading domestic refrigeration appliance manufacturers are experiencing full orders, and production and sales are accelerating during the peak season. Extreme heat in Europe has driven a surge in overseas air conditioner demand, prompting companies like Haier, Midea, and Gree to expedite production and optimize logistics to support exports. Meanwhile, the implementation of the new cold storage safety regulations has highlighted the industry's focus on upgrading to low-carbon intelligent refrigeration technologies and liquid cooling computing equipment.  

  The hot summer continues, and air conditioning and refrigerators are definitely essential items for every household.

  Affected by the continuous rise in bulk raw material prices, several central air conditioning enterprises have raised their product prices. This is not a unilateral marketing move by a single company but a passive price adjustment in the central air conditioning industry due to multiple cost pressures. The price adjustment is primarily driven by a combination of factors, including the peak of copper prices, rising aluminum and steel costs, doubled refrigerant prices, chip shortages, upward trends in oil transportation, and compliance renovation expenses. Therefore, this is an inevitable choice for enterprises to balance product quality control and profit preservation.

   In June 2026, the most severe and widespread extreme heatwave on record swept across the European continent. Germany broke its historical high-temperature record for two consecutive days (June 26-27), reaching 41.5°C; Paris, France, recorded an outdoor temperature of 45°C on June 25; and the UK saw its high-temperature records broken for three consecutive days (June 24-26). According to AFP estimates, nearly 200 million people in Europe were exposed to temperatures above 35°C on June 27 alone. On June 28, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stated that over 1,300 excess deaths in Europe since June 21 were linked to the heatwave.    However, only about 20% of households across Europe have air conditioning installed. The abundance of historic buildings, cumbersome installation approvals, costs ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 euros, and wait times exceeding two months during summer—all these factors have made air conditioning difficult to widely adopt. When temperatures exceed 40 degrees Celsius, the vast majority of European households can only rely on electric fans to cope. The PortaSplit mobile split-type air conditioner under Midea's brand has sold out in multiple European markets, becoming one of the biggest winners.     Why can Midea's products sell like hotcakes in Europe? The answer lies in their product design. Addressing the pain points of European old apartment buildings that cannot be drilled for installation and historical buildings that cannot have their exteriors damaged, Midea introduced a mobile split-type air conditioner that requires no drilling or installation—the outdoor unit can be placed on balconies or windowsills, while the indoor unit can be freely moved, delivering cooling performance close to traditional split systems. With an official price of 700 to 800 euros in Germany, the overall cost is significantly lower than traditional split air conditioners plus installation fees.      Currently, Midea's air conditioner factory in Shunde, Guangdong, is working overtime to produce this "hit" model, which is being urgently shipped to Europe via the China-Europe Railway Express. According to Midea's overseas air conditioner business head, the group has seen strong sales growth in Western Europe this year, with year-on-year increases exceeding 70% in traditional low-coverage countries such as France, Spain, Germany, and the UK.      Customs data confirms this "air conditioner tsunami"—in the first half of 2026, China's air conditioner exports to the EU reached $3.76 billion, a 43.2% year-on-year increase, hitting a record high. Among these, China's air conditioner exports to France, the Netherlands, and Belgium all more than doubled compared to the previous year.      Experts point out that extreme heat in Europe during summer is shifting from "exceptional" to "routine." As global warming persists, the European cooling equipment market is expected to experience sustained and structural growth. For Midea and China's air conditioning industry, this heatwave is not only a sales boom but also a strategic opportunity to unlock the European market.       Suzhou United Technologies Co.,Ltd--Professional Copper filter drier, Access Valve, Copper fittings,Service valves, Branch pipes, brass union brass nuts, Aluminum fittings manufacture.

     The National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) is a pivotal test seen by many Chinese families as a chance to change their destiny. The 2026 NCEE (June 7-9) concluded smoothly, with 12.9 million candidates nationwide, a decrease of 450,000 from the previous year, marking the end of seven consecutive years of growth. This year's exam maintained a stable and manageable difficulty level, free from off-topic or overly complex questions. Over 60% of the test questions were basic, focusing on core textbook knowledge. All subjects abandoned rigid rote-learning methods, emphasizing situational application and logical thinking assessment. While students found the exam relatively challenging, the overall differentiation was significantly enhanced, with a few difficult questions effectively widening the gap among top scorers. This approach not only upheld the fundamental educational standards but also precisely met the needs of tiered talent selection.

        Recently, Refrigeration Fast News reporters observed significant fluctuations in the European refrigerant market, with prices surging sharply. Leading UK refrigeration and air conditioning wholesalers officially announced that starting May 20, prices for several mainstream refrigerants would be substantially increased. Among them, R410A and R407C rose by as much as 60%, R134a by 35%, and R32 by 30%. Prices across all categories rose, exerting notable pressure on the local refrigeration industry supply chain.        This price hike is not a short-term market fluctuation but stems from the full implementation of European fluorinated gas regulations, coupled with the continuous tightening of HFC quotas, which has persistently constrained market supply. According to industry sources, the current market is facing significant supply constraints and external policy volatility. In the future, multiple suppliers may follow suit in raising prices, and the industry-wide price surge will continue.       Under the current regulations in Europe and the UK, high-GWP refrigerants are being steadily phased out and reduced. Although R410A can still be used for equipment maintenance and repair through recycling, its usage and procurement costs will continue to rise against the backdrop of gradual phase-out policies. More importantly, Europe's HFC quota will be further reduced by 23% in 2027, which means refrigerant supply will become even tighter, and high prices will remain the norm.      Overall, the European refrigerant market has fully entered a new phase of "reduction, price hikes, and shortages." For domestic refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump exporters, overseas cost pressures continue to climb, and supply chain uncertainties have significantly increased. Industry experts recommend that relevant enterprises secure supplies in advance, implement cost controls, and prepare early for subsequent market changes.

  China's Short Holiday: May Day Holiday 2026/5/1 - 2026/5/5. The May Day holiday, also known as the International Labor Day holiday, is a statutory public holiday in China. This holiday originated from the struggle of Chicago workers for an eight hour workday in 1886 and was designated as a common holiday of the international proletariat by the Second International in 1889. The Chinese people began to spread this holiday in 1918 and first commemorated it on a large scale in 1920. In December 1949, it was designated as the statutory Labor Day by the Central People's Government of the People's Republic of China. Chinese people usually take their families on short holidays, so tourist attractions during holidays are usually crowded with people.   Welcome to China for tourism and inspection.
