The Buildings Show 2025 - Exhibitor Booth Survey - Better Stands

  • The Buildings Show 2025

    EXHIBITOR SUSTAINABILITY SURVEY

  • Prioritizing sustainability is critical to The Buildings Show team, as we understand the environmental impact of the events industry. The Buildings strives to identify, understand and address these impacts to achieve continual improvement year after year.

     

    We'll ask you about things like lighting, materials in your booth, how you're shipping your booth, and transportation while your staff is on-site in Toronto with the goal of helping you ascertain changes you can make to reduce your impact on the environment both at The Buildings Show and ideally at all other shows you’re exhibiting in. This survey will take around ten minutes.

     

    Completing this survey will assess your sustainability practice at The Buildings Show and enters your booth into the running to win the 2025 Sustainability Award!
