Business Sustainability 鈥� Beyond Going Green
You Can Only Spell Sustainable With US!
At GES, our vision is to improve sustainable operations at events by leading the charge of the circular economy model. We endeavor to reduce resource consumption and emission at every event by providing a range of sustainable equipment including rentals that lower the demand to extract, produce and ship raw materials. We also reuse materials, offer a wide range of rental equipment, repurpose items wherever possible, and use recycled/upcycled materials to facilitate our event services with the least amount of virgin materials possible.听
The second we think of brand activations, we think of Earth first. At GES, sustainability inspires us – so we actively seek partnerships that will hop on the eco-friendly track with us. Less impact on the environment makes a significant impact on us. So, we want to create experiences and activations that steer clear of unnecessary waste while promoting environmentally sustainable global aspirations.听
The time has come to take a stand and end the unnecessary waste events generate. This is why the GES continues to strive to create a legacy of sustainability for the entire events industry through our processes, practices, materials, and, more importantly, educating industry stakeholders.听
