Environment

Our Ambition

Since our beginning, environmental sustainability has been a central component of our business strategy; we’ve been on a green mission, designing and building reusable and recyclable event solutions.

We have a responsibility to make every aspect of our business as sustainable as possible and are committed to reducing our impact on the environment.

Responsible & Efficient Production

Our in-house design team curates a sustainable use of materials made from renewable resources and recycled content. Our graphics are printed using water-based and dye-sublimation inks to increase longevity and allowing them to be recycled at the end of their lifetime. Custom fabricated elements use only FSC approved wood meeting internationally recognised ecological social an ethical standards.

Reducing Environmental Impact

Our sustainability program guides our efforts to lower waste and energy usage. We use internationally recognised environmental management systems such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 and consider key details, from innovative design and production process improvements, to employee engagement and environmentally preferred purchasing practices, among other initiatives. 

Championing Reusable Stands

As Advisory Board members we support development of the Better Stands Initiative, a programme which aims to reduce single-use disposable stands at exhibitions in favour of reusable structures. The initiative provides a consistent framework to measure the sustainability of event stands, setting classification criteria according to how much of a stand is reused or recycled.
