Meyer Burger wins sustainability award for exhibition stand at Intersolar Europe
Meyer Burger Technology AG has won the Sustainability Award for its exhibition stand at this year's Intersolar Europe
in Munich. The award was presented for the first time. The prize was awarded by the EUPD Research agency, which honors
particularly sustainable trade show concepts. A total of more than 80 exhibitors applied for the award.
"As sustainability is in Meyer Burger's DNA, we have given a lot of thought to an appropriate trade show concept," says
Bettina Brammer, Head of Marketing at Meyer Burger. "Like our solar modules, this concept should also comply with the
circular principle and produce as little waste as possible. We are delighted that there is now an award for
sustainability in trade show construction and that we are one of the first winners."
The EUPD's STEP (Sustainable Trade events Partnership) initiative aims to work together with trade show venue
operators, trade show organizers, exhibitors, media and associations towards climate-neutral and waste-free trade shows
and events. "Meyer Burger has taken on a truly pioneering role with its stand concept and has impressively demonstrated
that a truly sustainable trade show stand is possible," said Jens Mürke, Head of ESG at EUPD. "By dispensing with the
exhibition floor alone, 10.5 tons of CO[2] are saved. That is remarkable and will hopefully find many imitators."
Meyer Burger's current exhibition stand concept only uses materials that can be reused after the trade show. Typical
components such as flooring, suspensions or exhibition walls were replaced by commercially available scaffolding,
fabrics and rental plants. Meyer Burger's long-standing booth builder Walbert-Schmitz from Aachen developed and
implemented the concept.
