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.
