Trade show appearances often also tell how environmentally friendly a company thinks and acts. Make a widely visible statement about your own sustainability credentials. Several companies qualified to participate in the IFAT Sustainability Award. The prize has been awarded for the most sustainable trade fair appearance at IFAT Munich 2022.
The IFAT Sustainability Award goes hand in hand with Messe München's GoGreen CO₂ Audit: each participating main exhibitor automatically qualifies for participating in the award. What is the GoGreen CO₂ audit about? It is about offsetting CO₂ emissions generated by an exhibitor in connection with IFAT Munich. By supporting certified carbon offset projects from myclimate, you help drive measurable climate protection and sustainable development. And give your company even more credibility in terms of environmental friendliness.
When participating in the GoGreen CO2 Audit, you will benefit from the exclusive marketing measures for the climate-neutral exhibitors at IFAT Munich. In other words: positive press coverage and PR, which even multiplies when you participate in the IFAT Sustainability Award—and, when winning, is crowned by prizes worth up to EUR 3,000. The award has been presented at IFAT’s opening ceremony on May 30, 2022.
Thank you for your participation!
