Our Green Design Approach• Suppliers on standby
• Clarifying your vision
• Tendering suppliers
• Individual exhibition criteria

The supply chain
• All suppliers are asked about sustainability criteria during our ISO 9001 process
• Suppliers are asked to update their responses on a yearly basis
• This ensures we understand the capacity in our supply chain in order to deliver a sustainable exhibition
