Sustainable trade show practices will help your business go green!
Running an earth friendly business does not have to be difficult or expensive, and it is important for the future of the planet. Sustainable trade show practices are an essential part of operating a greener business, so here are a few tips to get you started.
- Reuse pieces of your previous exhibits. If your exhibit needs updating, consider having a company like ADM Two custom alter the pieces of the exhibit. That way, you don’t have to throw anything away, and you still get a whole new exhibit.
- Use sustainable materials.
- When you are traveling to another city, consider what pieces of your exhibit you can rent locally. This saves huge amounts of gas (and money) on shipping.
- Use recycled products or compostable products as giveaways.
- Use energy efficient products and lighting, as well as solar technology to save on electricity.
- Use digital materials instead of printed materials. Have visitors sign up for email materials using an iPad kiosk. If you must use printed materials, make sure they are printed on recycled paper.
“We love a challenge, so when a client comes to us with a piece that they want to repurpose, we have the opportunity to be extra creative,” says Shannon Bennett, VP of Sales and Marketing at ADM Two.
Such was the case with the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art. They wanted to repurpose a television stand, so we created an iPad dock and counter in their Interactive Gallery. Check out the story here: Recycling Materials for a Greener Museum Exhibit.
