DENVER — Since its establishment, Trade Show Emporium has had a strong commitment to being a company dedicated to the wellbeing of the environment and eliminating waste generated by the trade show industry.

As an industry, trade shows create a measurable amount of waste and have been called one of the most wasteful industries in the United States. Trade Show Emporium engages in several practices to help eliminate certain trade show waste from reaching landfills and bettering the environment through green initiatives.

With an extensive line of eco-friendly trade show products, Trade Show Emporium offers trade show display alternatives to companies looking to enhance its environmentally friendly efforts. All of the green products offered through Trade Show Emporium are developed with environmentally and socially responsible materials, including bamboo, recycled plastics, aluminum and water-based inks.

One of the many issues at the heart of wastefulness in the trade show industry is the amount of displays that are ending up in landfills and dumps throughout the country. Trade Show Emporium implements two measures to help alleviate this issue.

With our dedicated trade show display recycling for old displays and accessories, Trade Show Emporium decreases the amount of retired trade show displays being thrown away, which reduces carcinogen and green house gasses. The “reincarnation exhibit recycling” program services aluminum, plastic, wood, particleboard, cardboard, fabric, metal, nylon, laminate and carpet. Items are broken down into their rawest forms and reused to make other eco-friendly products.

Landfill waste is also reduced through Trade Show Emporium’s trade display rental program, an ideal substitute for companies who exhibit less often but want to maintain a strong presence at trade shows. This program helps eliminate the one-and-done approach that happens with many trade show products. Each rental can be customized with graphics, making the program ideal for companies who attend conferences infrequently.

Trade Show Emporium works closely with several organizations, including the Green Merchant Alliance and GenGreen Life, which help companies reduce its environmental impact through education and purchase of Renewable Energy Certificates.

Denver, CO, October 27— In a concentrated and concerned effort to increase its environmentally friendly development, Trade Show Emporium announced Thursday the installation of a solar energy system to the roof of its building, offering a sensible and environmentally responsible alternative to energy consumption for its downtown office.

The addition of a 3,500 kW solar panel system will allow Trade Show Emporium, along with accompanying companies that occupy its downtown building, to offset the current traditional energy consumption being created by the building. The proposed system, which will be installed by Adobe Solar, will be comprised of 20 175-watt solar modules and one solar inverter that will produce an estimated 4,531 kWh of electricity yearly or 377 kWh per month.

“Trade Show Emporium strongly believes in the continuing efforts to alleviate concern for the environment,” said Trade Show Emporium President, Willis Wood, Jr. “The addition of a solar energy system to our building will greatly increase our role in assisting the movement towards the use of renewable energy sources. We envision this system to deliver clean and quiet energy for many years to come.”

According to the Adobe Solar Web site, the system will operate with the 175-watt SolarWorld Modules collecting and breaking down the energy of the sun and transferring that into the solar inverter where it is collected by a SMA SunnyBoy 4000U Grid-Tied unit and converted into useful energy. Trade Show Emporium will use the bulk of this energy to power an extensive network of servers housed within the building.

The sophisticated solar energy system adds to the already eco-friendly list of current measures that Trade Show Emporium implements in an effort to reduce its carbon footprint on the environment and promote environmental awareness.

In July, Trade Show Emporium joined the Green Merchant Alliance (GMA), which is composed of businesses that promotes renewable and clean energy. Portions of Trade Show Emporium profits are taken by GMA which in turn are invested into certificates for renewable energy that fund clean energy projects. In a congruent effort, Trade Show Emporium is a leader in environmental friendly displays as well as recycling used materials.

Colorado’s Front Range receiving over 300 days of sunshine each year, according to the official Colorado tourism Web site, making it the sixth sunniest state in the nation and allowing adequate opportunities for the solar energy system to make an immediate impact on the customary energy consumption of Trade Show Emporium.

“The addition of solar energy to our building, along with our previous commitment to bettering the environment made this an easy decision for Trade Show Emporium,” Wood said. “This is just the first step in what will hopefully be several renewable energy projects that Trade Show Emporium will accomplish in the upcoming years.”

DENVER, CO, July 30 — While most companies focus on the “almighty dollar,” a group of environmentally conscious businesses are coming together to make the world a greener place.  The Green Merchant Alliance is composed of businesses, like Trade Show Emporium, who fund clean energy initiatives.  Trade Show Emporium, an eco-friendly, Colorado-based company, is one of the alliance’s newest members.

By joining GMA, Trade Show Emporium unites with a consortium of businesses dedicated to reducing their environmental footprint by supporting renewable energy, public education, and environmental conservation.  The Green Merchant Alliance donates a portion of the profits from Trade Show Emporium’s sales toward the purchase of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs).  The money from the RECs directly funds clean energy projects.  Then the RECs are “retired” –meaning they can no longer be traded or sold.

“It is important to our company to support clean energy development,” says Trade Show Emporium President, Willis Wood, Jr.  “Trade Show Emporium and its employees are extremely environmentally conscientious.  We saw joining the Green Merchant Alliance as a way to strengthen our commitment to the Earth.”

The renewable energy generated by the Green Merchant Alliance displaces other conventional electricity generation, such as coal, oil, nuclear, or natural gas.  For every kilowatt-hour of renewable electricity or renewable certificates bought by members of the Green Merchant Alliance, there is one less kilowatt-hour of conventional electricity generation.

Trade Show Emporium is based out of Denver, Colorado.  Its mission is to provide honest, friendly consulting services to those in need of trade show exhibits, graphics, and accessories.  Trade Show Emporium is one of the top vendors for displays produced from environmentally friendly, renewable materials.
