In fact, we have taken this a further and brought in the whole sustainability spectrum – from financial, time, logistic to greener products.

PROVEN TRACK RECORD

One of the great success stories is WOSA – Wines of South Africa. Arguably the largest eco-friendly exhibitions in the world. Since 2012, the show is built mainly using FB. There are about 300 6m² booths for individual wine farms and 20 to 30 other larger stands that are either custom built or in the case of this year constructed in EFB. Some 6000m² of sustainable exhibitions. All complete a day and a half before the doors opened.

Post event no need for skips and far less trucks clogging up the marshal yards. Most exhibitors opted to keep and re-use their components for future marketing purposes.
