Exhibitors
Here are some practical tips on how to make your participation more sustainable
Stand design & waste:
Choose a reusable stand package from the organizer or design your own stand so that the structure will be reused several times, year after year. Work with your stand builder to make your stand as sustainable as possible! Avoid creating a disposable stand just for an event. Create reusable signs (with no date on it) made from recyclable materials and with eco-friendly ink whenever possible, Use LED lighting and other energy-efficient equipment for your stand and don’t forget to turn it off at the end of the day Try not to use carpet, and if you really need it, preferably choose reusable matte tiles. If you use regular carpet, make sure it is recyclable and that it will be recycled
Travel & Accommodation:
Whenever possible, choose public transport or carpooling with your colleagues Choose a hotel within walking distance and/or apply environmentally friendly methods
Logistics & Transport:
Consolidate your shipments and preferably use transport and logistics companies that apply sustainable practices Favor local suppliers to support 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 single-use plastics. If you serve food at your stand, choose locally produced and plant-based alternatives and avoid the use of single-use plastics. Avoid food waste and order only the amount of food needed.
Social responsibility:
Take an active role in the various initiatives and discussions during the event that will support the sustainable development of your sector. Inspire visitors by showcasing the sustainable properties of your products.
