OUR POLICY
Showplace Ltd has always carried out its activities in a manner which helps to sustain the long-term future of the business, environment, employees and the community in which we operate.
Working within an industry that isn’t always environmentally considerate, Showplace leads the way with environmental matters. Our business model ensures our products are reusable, recyclable, and waste is kept to a minimum.
We are able to commit to this due to the nature of our exhibition stands; most of the components can be reused and reconfigured. This is not only positive for the environment but is beneficial for our clients and offers a considerable cost saving for multi event use.
Additionally, our management team is fully committed to the principles of sustainability for the company, community and the environment and continually works towards our core values.
OUR RECYCLING INITIATIVE
As part of our ongoing commitment to incorporate sustainable practices into all possible areas of our supply chain, Showplace has adopted a new recycling initiative which concentrates on creating a circular economy through recycling flooring after an event. All single-use flooring provided by Showplace will be passed on to our partners, Tarkett and Sommer Event Flooring, and will be recycled at their specialised centres.
Across the globe, more than 109,000 tonnes of flooring have been collected and recycled through Tarkett’s recycling programme and we are delighted to be contributing to this positive impact to create a greener future for the exhibition industry.
For an in-depth look at the recycling process, take a look at the video below:
