For the first time at our flagship event Global Offshore Wind, all stand contractors and exhibitors are required to submit a sustainability plan covering areas including the lifecycle of the stand, packing materials, transport of stand materials and builders. </p> <p>We use re-wind carpets at our biggest shows which contain no latex; therefore, no water is required in the manufacturing process. The elimination of water and latex results in no oven-drying process. The energy required to produce the Rewind range is 85% less than traditional event carpets. CO2 emissions are reduced by 55% in the manufacturing process. Re-wind carpets are lighter than traditional cord carpet meaning easier handling on site and increased delivery capacity. </p> </div> </li> <li class="accordion-item" data-accordion-item><a href="#" class="accordion-title"> <h6>Choosing the right suppliers </h6> </a> <div class="accordion-content" data-tab-content> <p>In supplier selection, we prioritise local options to reduce travel emissions.
