Making ISE Greener

At ISE, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and promoting sustainable practices across all aspects of our event. From innovative waste management solutions to eco-friendly exhibitor guidelines, we’re taking steps to ensure a greener future for the AV and systems integration industry.

Join us on our journey to make ISE not just a leading technology event, but also a benchmark for sustainability.

Together, we can create a positive impact and inspire change.

Greener Exhibiting: Embracing the 8Rs

Exhibiting sustainably at trade shows is more important than ever, and the 8Rs provide a practical framework for reducing environmental impact: Rethink, Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Refurbish, Repurpose, and Recycle.

By rethinking booth designs to prioritize modular and reusable materials, refusing single-use plastics, and reducing energy consumption, exhibitors can significantly lower their carbon footprint. Repairing and refurbishing existing assets extends their lifecycle, while repurposing materials adds creativity and sustainability to your presence. Recycling remains essential for managing unavoidable waste.

At ISE, we encourage exhibitors to adopt the 8Rs and make conscious choices that align with a more sustainable future.

Make Your Trade Show Presence Greener: Simple Steps to Sustainability

Together with our host venue, Fira de Barcelona, ISE is committed to sustainable development and aspires to become a benchmark trade show for sustainability. To achieve this, we implement initiatives, projects, and actions designed to minimize our environmental impact while generating positive social and economic benefits.

ISE and Fira de Barcelona also work to extend this commitment to exhibitors, suppliers, and visitors. Our goal is to inform, raise awareness, and actively involve exhibitors and stand construction companies in creating a more sustainable and environmentally conscious experience at the Fira.

Driving Sustainability at ISE

Sustainability is at the heart of ISE. We’re dedicated to reducing our environmental impact and inspiring greener practices across the AV industry. From eco-conscious initiatives on the show floor to partnerships with organizations that share our vision, we’re striving to create a more sustainable event. Here’s how we’re making a difference:

ISE Initiatives​

At ISE, we are committed to sustainability across all aspects of the event.

The venue is powered 100% by renewable green energy, including solar, wind, hydro, biomass, tidal, geothermal, and biogas sources, ensuring a minimal environmental impact. In addition, we prioritize waste reduction with initiatives such as waste patrols on the show floor, the reusage of carpets, and recyclable badge holders to help reduce waste generation.

As part of our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint, we have digitized our advertising space, minimizing the need for printed materials. We are also proud to work with suppliers who are aligned with our sustainability goals, ensuring that every step of the event contributes to a greener future.

Through these efforts, ISE is not only showcasing the latest innovations in technology but also setting an example for a more sustainable industry.
