The Association of the European Heating Industry (EHI) represents and promotes the common interests of 35 market leaders producing thermal comfort equipment (heating systems, burners, boilers, components, radiators and renewable energy systems) and 13 national industrial associations from the EU Member States, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. The industry has total sales of more than 20 billion euro and employs 120.000 people.
The association of European Heating Industry was founded on 11 June 2002. It is the result of the merger of the former CEB (European Burner Committee), EBA (European Boiler Association), and AFECI (Association of European manufacturers of instantaneous gas water heaters and wall-hung boilers), whose history goes back into the 1960s.
EHI deals with the needs of the heating market from the point of view of industry. Its scope includes: the European regulatory framework, its implementation, and global aspects relating to the industry.
