Shaping the Powder and
Bulks Solids Industry for
a Sustainable Future

Shaping the Industry for a Sustainable Future

Sustainability is increasingly important to our attendees and exhibitors, as well as to our community. Operating The Powder Show gives us many opportunities to improve our impacts environmentally, socially, and economically. Our team is driven to make our event more responsible and to also play a key role in helping our market improve its own sustainability. Our parent company, Informa Markets Engineering, is committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment, reducing our environmental impact at every level, and embedding those values in all business practices.

Our Three Pledges

Sustainable Development icon

1. Inspiring Sustainable Development

Our first aim is for our events to inspire sustainable development. This is about the sustainability of the industry that our event serves. With focus on our content and partnerships, we inspire our attendees, exhibitors, and event teams to deliver a sustainable event.

Environmental Responsibility icon

2. Running an Environmentally Responsible Event

Our second aim is to run our events in an environmentally responsible manner. The key is considering how we can reduce our carbon footprint through energy efficiency, consideration of our energy use, waste reduction and our procurement choices.

Social Responsibility icon

3. Running a Socially Responsible Event

Our third aim is to run our events in a socially responsible manner. This requires us to think about the impact we have on the local community and whether we are being a good neighbor. It also includes how we consider the welfare of everyone at our events, how we do business in an ethical and safe manner and how we promote equality and accessibility.


FasterForward

FasterForward is our approach to sustainability, moving faster to become a zero waste and net zero carbon business. A series of activities and commitments carried out between 2020-2025 will ensure our events become ever more sustainable, delivering a truly positive impact to the markets we serve. We will also actively help our partners, customers, and wider markets to achieve the same.

Our FasterForward commitments include:

  • Become carbon neutral across our events by 2025
  • Halve the waste generated through our events by 2025
  • Become zero waste and net zero carbon by 2030 or earlier
  • Embed sustainability inside 100% of our events by 2025

The Steps International Powder & Bulk Solids is Taking

  1. Reducing Printed Materials — We eliminated a printed event guide in favor of digital platforms, such as the Smart Event digital resource and mobile app
  2. Recycling Printed Signage — As an annual event, we make sure to develop printed materials that can be reused
  3. Utilizing Digital Signage — We replaced traditionally printed signage with digital options where possible
  4. Surveying Exhibitors and Attendees — We research exhibitor and attendee views on our progress and survey audience travel patterns for participation

What All Guests Can Do To Reduce The Carbon Footprint

1. Water Conservation

  • Participate in your hotel’s Linen ReUse Program – you can often earn Rewards points for participating
  • Take shorter showers to save water and time

2. Waste Reduction

  • Use a refillable water bottle and coffee cup at the event
  • Take only what you need at food functions
  • Download the official mobile app and refer to the digital event guide
  • Ask for a recycling bag for your hotel room if one isn’t in place

3. Energy Conservation

  • Turn off lights and thermostat when leaving your hotel room

4. Air Quality/CO2 Impact

  • Carpool to the event or take public transport to/from the airport and to/from hotel
  • Eat vegetarian or vegan at least one meal per day OR make the commitment to eat meat free ALL WEEK
