October 12, Qingdao, China – The 2026 Hisense HVAC Global Partner Conference convened in Qingdao under the theme “Innovating A Brighter Life”, gathering global industry experts and channel partners. Hisense HVAC set its corporate vision “to become a global leader in the HVAC industry”, positioning itself as “a provider of better air solutions”.
Fang Xueyu, Vice-President of Hisense Group, shared business performance: Hisense's overseas commercial AC business achieved roughly 30% year-on-year growth from January to September 2026, with own-brand shipments exceeding 70%. She unveiled five strategic pillars covering premium products, sports-driven brand building, user-centric service, localised operations and ESG-oriented green globalisation.
Zhou Zhigang, COO of Hisense HVAC, outlined the strategic shift from merely supplying standalone HVAC hardware to delivering full-lifecycle, scenario-based air solutions tailored for both residential and commercial projects. He explained that this evolution moves beyond selling individual air-conditioning units. Instead, Hisense now covers the whole journey including pre-project consultation, system design, product delivery, on-site commissioning, long-erm maintenance and after-sales service.
Ning Minghui, General Manager of the R&D Centre at Hisense HVAC, unveiled the brand's latest product portfolio at the event. New launches cover both residential and commercial segments, including the flagship U8 AIR MASTER smart residential AC and the world-first R32 four-pipe heat-recovery VRF S5 REGEN. The U8 AIR MASTER addresses installation and maintenance pain-points for home users, while the S5 REGEN VRF delivers superior energy-saving performance for commercial buildings.
Parallel sub-forums and eight themed exhibition zones ran on-site. The conference highlighted key industry trends: localised delivery, low-GWP refrigerants, AI-powered systems and full-lifecycle solutions. Moving forward, Hisense HVAC will leverage technological innovation for low-carbon development and pursue win-win growth with worldwide partners under the proposition “Better Air, Hisense Care”.
