By joining and attending The Sustainability Show, you are making positive choices that can support a more sustainable lifestyle. From the brands that are joining the Show, to our expert speakers, we are hosting an inspiring, confident and relevant event. Sustainability is not all doom and gloom. You can turn your lifestyle around and become more sustainable without costing the earth! We want our visitors to feel they are making an impact by joining the Sustainability Show. We have a host of measures in place to ensure carbon offsetting, no waste, zero plastic and so much more. The Sustainability Show is THE ONLY sustainable lifestyle event, that provides positive impact. Don’t believe us, here are some impact measures that you can be a part of!

1. Venue

The Business Design Centre is the most sustainable venue in the UK. All energy consumed is sourced from 100% renewable resources, whilst 0% of waste goes to landfill sites. The BDC has passed ten years as a carbon neutral venue and is involved in a variety of projects as part of a drive towards sustainability.

2. Logistics

To reduce our environmental impact, we are using a logistics company in-house at the Business Design Centre. All exhibition stands are reused. Companies that are building their own exhibition areas are encouraged to use similar recyclable & reusable materials.

3. Branding & Printing

Our printing company, will be on site, fully recyclable and reusable. Any branding & print work from previous events will be reused. Recyclable materials will be used for event items including displays, lanyards and postering.

4. Plastics

No single use plastic will be used at The Sustainability Show. All partners, brands and experts are required to stick to this rule.

5. Waste

All waste will be separated on site, and working with The Business Design Centre, will not go to landfills. There will be no food waste, as any ‘leftovers’ will be distributed with our waste partners.

6. Travel

An offsetting programme will be set up to offset carbon emissions from those travelling internationally. Local travel should be as eco-friendly as possible.

7. Charity Donation

The Sustainability Show has partnered with a number of social causes, encouraging all participants to donate to their desired charity.
