Exhibitor tips
Dear exhibitors: join our green team and take action for the future! As an exhibitor at Auto Prof, you play an essential role in helping to create a sustainable event.
Here are some useful tips to make your participation more sustainable:
Choose a reusable all-in stand model from the organizer or design your own stand so that it can be reused multiple times. Work with your stand builder to make your stand as sustainable as possible! Avoid creating a disposable stand for one event…
Make 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 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 opt for reusable carpet tiles. If you do use regular carpet, make sure it is recyclable and that it is recycled.
Whenever possible, choose public transportation or carpool with your colleagues.
Choose a hotel within walking distance and/or with eco-friendly standards.
Consolidate your shipments and preferably use transport and logistics companies with sustainable practices.
Favor local suppliers to support the local economy and reduce transportation.
Favor suppliers with sustainable and responsible principles.
Bring your own reusable water bottle to use our water fountains and help us reduce the use of single-use plastic.
If you are serving food at your stand, choose locally sourced and plant-based options and avoid single-use plastic.
Avoid food waste and only order the amount you need.
Actively participate in the various initiatives and discussions during the event that support the sustainable development of your sector.
Inspire visitors by showing the sustainable features of your products.
