Sustainable Exhibitor Booth Contest

Commitment to Sustainability

Shipping Accu-Mold takes sustainability beyond booth design by optimizing shipping practices. Their booths are shipped directly from one event to the next whenever possible, reducing transportation emissions and energy consumption. Reusable crates and packing materials further enhance their eco-friendly approach.

On-Site Sustainability Practices

At our event, Accu-Mold actively manages marketing assets to avoid overprinting or shipping excess items, keeping waste to a minimum. Their dedication to reducing their carbon footprint reflects their values of operational excellence and environmental responsibility.

  • Is your booth using LED lighting or other energy efficient power?
  • Have you considered renting a booth property?
  • Are you using local suppliers?
  • If you are building an exhibit, we recommend only using Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) wood.
  • We recommend going with bare flooring
• Shipping –
  • Are you reducing or consolidating shipping to and from the event?
• Employee Travel –
  • Are you choosing the most sustainable option for travel?
• Promotional Items & Handouts –
  • Are you reducing paper handouts?
  • When purchasing promotional items, we recommend that you consider the amount you order, the environmental credentials of the materials they are made from, as well as whether they are useful giveaways that will be used long after the event is over.
• Assessment On-site

Reduce signage waste by:

• Encouraging less printing and providing more information digitally when it comes to booth literature and fulfilling requests via email and website referrals
• Creating reusable non-dated signs that can be used year after year
• Avoiding foam core signs and requesting recyclable material such as cardboard signage

Reduce booth waste by:

• Requesting sustainable options from Freeman or your EAC
• BYOF!- Avoiding carpet and bringing your own flooring, like puzzle foam flooring that can be reused at all your shows
• Breaking down ALL cardboard boxes and putting them in the correct recycling bin
• Requesting additional booth bins for recycling and compost collection
• Using only compostable or recyclable service ware for samples and giveaways
• Using the stickers provided at the Exhibitor Services Desk to mark your materials for recycling or donation
