    Exhibitor tips

    Dear exhibitors: join our green team and take action for the future! As an exhibitor at Infra Relatiedagen, you play a vital role in helping to create a sustainable event.

    Below are some useful tips to make your participation more sustainable:

    Choose a reusable all-in-one booth model from the organizer or design your own so it can be reused multiple times. Work with your booth builder to make your booth as sustainable as possible! Avoid creating a disposable booth for a single event.

    Create reusable signage (without a date) from recyclable materials and with eco-friendly ink, if 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 carpet, and if you really need it, opt for reusable carpet tiles. If you do use regular carpet, make sure it’s recyclable and gets recycled.

    Whenever possible, choose public transportation or carpool with your colleagues.

    Choose a hotel within walking distance and/or with environmentally friendly standards.

    Consolidate your shipments and, if possible, use transport and logistics companies with sustainable practices.

    Favour local suppliers to support the local economy and reduce transport.

    Favour suppliers with sustainable and responsible principles.

    Nutrition & Food Waste

    Actively participate in the various initiatives and discussions during the event that support the sustainable development of your sector.

    Inspire visitors by showcasing the sustainable features of your products.
