Air Movement and Control Association (AMCA) International Inc. is a not-for-profit association of manufacturers of fans, dampers, louvers, air curtains, and other air-system components for commercial HVAC, industrial-process, and power-generation applications. With programmes such as certified ratings, laboratory accreditation, verification of compliance, and international-standards development, its mission is to advance the health, growth, and integrity of the air-movement-and-control industry consistent with the interests of the public.
In February 2023 Eurovent and AMCA signed a Memorandum of Understanding, in which they agreed to develop and maintain mutually beneficial relationships in support of the fan industry. In the framework of the 3-year Memorandum, the organisations collaborate on the topics related to certification of fans destined for air handling units, education and training, advocacy and standardisation.
Eurovent is a member of the Cool Coalition, a global multi-stakeholder network that connects more than 100 actors from government, cities, international organisations, businesses, finance, academia, and civil society groups to facilitate knowledge exchange, advocacy and joint action towards a rapid global transition to sustainable cooling. Led by UNEP, the Cool Coalition is one of the official outcomes and ‘Transformation Initiatives’ put forward by the Executive Office of the Secretary-General for the UN Climate Action Summit in New York.
Eurovent is an official association campaign supporter of Cooling Keeps Food Fresh, a global campaign launched by United Nations Environment Programme OzonAction, Chefs4thePlanet and Global Food Cold Chain Council celebrating World Refrigeration Day to raise awareness of cooling technologies that reduce food loss and promote climate security.

Eurovent is a Liaison Organisation at CEN, the European Committee for Standardization. It is an association that brings together the national standardisation bodies of 34 European countries.

In the framework of the Memorandum, the two organisations collaborate on standards development, codes of good practice and networking events, among others.
