EXHIBITORS

Here are some practical tips on how to make your participation more sustainable:

Booth Design & Waste:

Choose a reusable booth package from the organizer or design your own booth so that the structure will be reused multiple times, year after year. Work with your booth builder to make your booth as sustainable as possible! Avoid creating a one-time booth just for one event. Create reusable signage (without any date on it) made of recyclable material and with environmentally friendly ink whenever possible. Use LED lighting and other energy-efficient equipment for your booth, and remember to turn it off at the end of the day. Try to avoid using carpet, and if you really need it, preferably choose reusable carpet tiles. If you use regular carpet, make sure it is recyclable and that it will be recycled.

Travel & Accommodation:

When possible, choose public transportation or carpooling with your colleagues. Choose a hotel within walking distance and/or implement environmentally friendly practices.

Logistics & Transportation:

Consolidate your shipments and preferably use transportation and logistics companies that apply sustainable methods. Support local suppliers to bolster the local economy and reduce transportation. Favor suppliers that demonstrate environmental and social credentials.

Food & Food Waste:

Bring your own reusable water bottle and use our water stations to help us reduce the use of disposable plastic. If you serve food at your booth, preferably choose locally sourced and plant-based options and avoid the use of disposable plastic. Minimize food waste and only order the amount of food needed.

Social Responsibility:

Take an active role in various initiatives and discussions during the event that will support sustainable development in your sector. Inspire visitors by showcasing the sustainable features of your products.
