The Industrial Sustainability Best Practices Conference is making its European debut in Castelldefels, Barcelona, Spain, June 17-18, 2025. The event will bring together Europe’s industrial design engineers, manufacturing facility/maintenance managers and on-site utility technology experts to share best practices.

The Industrial Sustainability Best Practices Conference, a facility utilities decarbonization and water conservation event, is debuting in Barcelona June 17-18, 2025.
The two-day conference features keynote speakers from some of Europe’s leading firms, a formal one-day Compressed Air Challenge Workshop and networking exhibits showcasing industrial compressed air, vacuum, blower, chiller and evaporative heat rejection technologies. Registration is open now: https://cabpexpo.com/event/industrial-sustainability-best-practices-conference.
“Since 2006, the Best Practices Magazines have shared energy/water conservation and safety/reliability best practices to thousands of professionals around the world,” said Roderick M. Smith, Publisher. “In 2018, we introduced the Best Practices Conference to North America, and now we’re honored to bring this event to Europe. We look forward to building this annual event with the support and expertise of Europe’s industry experts.”
Eurovent Certita has been named a “Founding Sponsor” of the event. Smith said, “With our focus on industrial comfort cooling/process chillers and heat rejection equipment, we are thrilled to build this event together with the world leader in third-party product performance certification in the HVACR fields.”
The bilingual English/Spanish conference has two main focus topics. Focus topic #1 is for those with vigorous NET ZERO and energy/water conservation goals, focusing on industrial compressed air, vacuum and HVAC/process cooling technologies – representing 10-40% of total energy consumption in a plant. Focus topic #2 focuses on food-safe system design and quality verification. Compressed air, vacuum and chilled water systems can provide unintended ingredients into food and beverage manufacturing.
The product-neutral Compressed Air Challenge Level 1 Fundamentals of Compressed Air Systems will make its European debut at the event. This is an 8-hour introductory course designed to teach facility engineers, operators and maintenance staff how to achieve 15-25% cost savings.
The Hotel SB BCN Events will host the event. Located at Ronda de Can Rabadà, 22-24, 08860, Castelldefels, Barcelona, it is a convenient 10 minute drive from the Barcelona Airport. Discounted rooms are available for conference guests.
