10\' Trelew Eco Display

Denver, CO – Going Green is the verb in business today. And the trade show industry is no exception, says Willis Wood, President of Trade Show Emporium (www.tradeshowemporium.com) headquartered in Denver, Colo.

As sustainability becomes increasingly a part of everyday business considerations, those same businesses are carrying over that practice to their trade show participation. Exhibitors are looking to incorporate environmentally conscious elements into their trade show displays to back up their company’s sustainability position and practices. To that end, trade show participants are choosing trade show displays made from  environmentally friendly materials, using environmentally friendly inks on printed pieces, recycling badge holders, and other innovations considered green by today’s eco-sensitive best practices.

Trade Show Emporium is assisting in the greening of trade show displays, helping exhibitors go green.  Trade Show Emporium now offers green trade show displays with environmentally friendly fabrication, including:

•    materials are derived from recycled content and reduce natural resource dependency
•    low volatile organic compound (VOC) emission adhesives, stains, and finishes versus petroleum based     options that pollute the air
•    use rapidly renewable materials like fast-growing bamboo over finite alternatives that take years longer to reproduce.

Trade Show Emporium’s goal is to help spare the environment and improve business practices, explains Wood. He spends a great deal of his time introducing green options to trade show exhibitors showing them how these new products employ sustainable materials in the design and production of exhibits and display products.

Even more revolutionary than simply offering green product for sale, Trade Show Emporium is offering Exhibit Recycling.  “The event and trade show industry is the second largest producer of solid waste in the United States,” Wood says quoting recently released industry figures. “Events like trade shows start and finish with construction and demolition. We’re on board to see that those two processes—set up and tear down—are managed in the most responsible green ways possible.”

Called “Reincarnation Exhibit Recycling,” this service offered by Trade Show Emporium is designed to reduce the volume of retired exhibit materials reaching landfills, thus eliminating the release of carcinogen and green house gasses. This service features the up- and down-cycling of nearly every exhibit material including: Aluminum, Plastic, Wood, Particle Board, Cardboard, Fabric, Metal, Nylon, Laminate, Carpet… and more.

Ship Trade Show Emporium your old, anything-but-green trade show display to ensure that you are helping the environment by recycling it instead of having wind up in a land fill.

Trade Show Emporium’s green line of trade show products offer a unique opportunity for your company to express your sustainability commitment in full view of your clients and prospects, Wood adds.
