As a part of a drive to promote an eco design approach ADEME is inviting exhibitors at Pollutec Horizons 2011 to integrate environmental features into their stands more effectively and to apply the same principles in their choice of suppliers.
The aim is to highlight how an eco design approach can be pursued throughout the life cycle of a stand and how the protection of the environment can be taken into account without detracting from the stand’s appearance, effectiveness and visitor safety.
Eco-design your stand
Raise the profile of your brand through an environmentally responsible approach
ADEME's recommendations
When specifying your stands
● Incorporate materials from renewable resources
● Use materials that are easy to recognize in terms of their type and that can be readily recycled
● Use floor coverings that can be recycled or reused
● Adopt a modular approach
●Increase the lifespan of your stand by choosing a design that will not date and by reusing some of its elements
●Make provisions for the collection of sorted waste from your stand
●Reduce electricity consumption on the stand
And for your information material
● Adopt the best possible environmental characteristics (eco-labelled paper, recycled fibre, green inks, optimized grammages…).
● Favour fixed, permanent and/or updatable
means of display.
● Optimize your quantities and target your distribution of printed documents to avoid waste.
