SUSTAINABLE SHIPPING

Smart packing, eco-responsible delivery

We are committed to sustainability from packaging to transit. Our durable, lightweight, and reusable containers secure equipment while minimizing cardboard waste. Beyond packaging, we lower emissions through UPS Carbon Neutral Shipping for deliveries across Europe.
Each container circulates up to 1,000 trips over a span of 10 years, removing 1.7 million single-use boxes from landfills.

An event attendee reduces paper waste with an iPad, using digital check-in, contactless registration, and QR code solutions.

Paperless Event Solutions

We help cut event waste with digital check-in, contactless registration, and QR code solutions, reducing paper usage and supporting greener events.

Event Waste, Reduced

A cleaner, greener breakdown—built in

In 2025 we launched our Recycle Box to extend our sustainability efforts for events across Europe. A dedicated drop box to collect used badges and lanyards and route them for recycling results in less waste and a cleaner breakdown for your events.

Upcoming Sustainable Efforts

CO2 Compensation for Shipping

We are working on offering a CO2 compensation option for shipping, similar to what airlines provide for travelers. Clients will choose to offset the carbon emissions generated during the delivery of our products. By selecting this option, you will be contributing to certified environmental projects that neutralize the carbon impact of shipping, making it easier to host greener, more sustainable events.
