Capital Convention Contractors is committed to seeking ways
to produce
more environmentally-friendly events, both on the show floor and within
its own work facilities. Capital will work with customers in a
collaborative effort to help find ways to make their events more
eco-friendly. Here are some of the green practices which are in place at
Capital:
- Capital encourages the use of electronic service manuals
for
exhibitors. This greatly reduces the use of paper
by allowing
exhibitors to print only the forms they
actually need versus
receiving an entire manual in
full print.
- Carpet padding used by Capital contains 100%
recycled foam material.
- Capital makes every effort to recycle its carpet
inventory, following the practices and recommendations of its carpet supplier.
- Capital uses modular structural systems made of
recycled aluminum,
which can then be recycled and extruded back into new components
after use if it is in its natural finish.
- Upon request, Capital can coordinate arrangements
to offer
recycling containers for use by attendees and exhibitors to reduce
the cost of waste produced by an event. This will involve
partnerships between the facility, the show organizer, and Capital
Convention Contractors.
- We use LP natural gas (propane) fuel for forklifts, carts
and
other vehicles as opposed to gasoline whenever it is an option.
The use of natural LP gas improves safety on the show floor, and
also lowers the overall toxicity of the air quality.
