4. They use an open stand design.
BACKGROUND.
A traditional 10×10 meters custom build stand would require a 7.5 Tons Heavy duty vehicule and 7-8 men to transport and build, which results in a lot of carbon emissions and hassle
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the trade show industry is the second largest producer of waste after the construction industry.
The average two-day event can produce as much waste as a family
of four produces in 15 years.
BACKGROUND.
1. TRADE SHOW IN AMERICA
With the development of a eco-friendly exhibits, banner
stands and related display products, the trade show industry is
reducing its ecological damage.
A growing number of trade show display companies are now specializing in green exhibits, fixtures, signs, LED lighting and display materials that have less impact on the environment.
2. GREEN TRADE SHOW IN AMERICA
PRESENT.
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
Every year, Americans throw away
50 billion cans
27 billion glass bottles and jars
65 million plastic and metal covers
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
More than 30% ofour wasteis packaging materials
Where does it all go? 85% of our garbage is sent to a dump, or landfill, it can take from 100 to 400 years for things like cloth and aluminum to decompose.
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
Glass has been found
in perfect condition
after 4,000 years in the
earth.
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
Avoiding the use of wood, especially from unsustainable sources, helps to prevent deforestation whereas using
lightweight aluminum helps to reduce transportation loads and labor.
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
We are quickly running out of space. It's time to learn the three R's of the environment: reduce, reuse, recycle:
REDUCELowering the amout of waste produced
REUSEUsing materials repeatedly
RECYCLEUsing materials to make new products
RECOVERYRecovery energy from waste
LANDFILLSave disposal to landfill
coprocessing
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
Reducing the amount of waste you produce is the best way to help the environment.REDUCE
Instead of throwing things away, try to find ways to use them again.REUSE
Recycled items are put through a process that makes it possible to create new products out of the materials from the old ones.
RECYCLE
3. THE 3R OF ENVIRONMENT
4. THE USE OF SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS IN EXHIBITION
1. Anyone interested in helping the environment should consider green trade show displays.
2. Trade shows attract a large number of attendees, so they allow you to spread the word about your products and services while demonstrating your commitment to the environment.
3. Eco-friendly trade show displays help to conserve energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce water and air pollution, and conserve natural resources.
The use of sustainable materials in exhibition applying the 3R:
1. Buy promotional products in bulk = Less packaging.2. Avoid over-packaged goods; avoid use of paper and plastic. 3. Buy durable aluminum exhibits. They will last longer.4. Avoid disposable goods (plastic cups, napkins, etc).5. Giveaway a USB with eCatalog.6. After exhibition, use electronic mail.7. Use a LED Light instead of fluorescent light.8. Use to clean your exhibit a dish cloth.

charities.
Ask your producer to remove the graphics and return to you.
