There is an environmental policy / production policy in place which details organisation intentions to reduce emissions and waste from built elements. Don’t have one? Download a template.
To detail how the environmental impact of set design and built elements will be mitigated, a Sustainable Event Production Plan is created in partnership with clients / delivery partners. Need inspiration? Download a template.
There is a target in place that the volume of hired, reused, repurposed or recycled materials should exceed that of raw or virgin materials used in all built elements. This target doesn’t include steel deck, scaff or stock flats.
There is a target in place to send no more than 25% of materials used in built elements to landfill or incineration post-event.
There is an all-parties agreed hard stop date for design revisions to reduce the occurrence of material wastage resulting from last-minute design changes.
Reusable packing materials are mandated as first preference for transportation protection, with 100% recyclable materials accepted as an alternative if there is a waste streams in place, to eliminate pallet wrap and single-use plastics.
The end destination of built elements during de-rig and post-event is monitored and reported on, to ensure that the onward life plan for materials or assets is being managed in line with sustainability plans.
The materials used and their onward life are recorded and measured by weight or volume according to reusing / repurposing / recycling / landfill or incineration.
Progress against any targets set on material usage and onward life is reported on post-event to understand what was produced and how it was managed. These learnings are shared with clients / suppliers to shape performance improvements for sustainable built elements in future events.
