A net zero exhibition stand eliminates or offsets all carbon emissions produced from design, build, transport and breakdown. By prioritising reuse, responsible sourcing, and energy efficiency, we help brands create standout, low impact exhibits that redefine what’s possible in sustainable events.
The foundation of a low-waste, high-impact stand. Our modular structures are designed for multiple events, reducing material waste and carbon impact. They’re adaptable, durable, and customisable – ensuring every brand activation is fresh, bold, and built to last.
Our sustainable print materials and water-based inks span across a range of fabrics and finishes for impactful, sustainable graphics that reduce waste without compromising on quality.
Net zero isn’t just about materials – it’s about how we work, and the decisions we make every day. From renewable energy in production to accreditations and carbon tracking, we manage waste, logistics, and energy use with a focus on reducing impact and maximising efficiency.
Exhibiting should be impactful for your brand, not the planet. We design bold, future-proof stands using durable, sustainable materials that maintain creativity while reducing waste.
With an extensive rental stock, modular structures and flexible services, we create exhibition spaces that are cost-effective, reusable and aligned with your sustainability goals. No compromises, just innovative, high-performance design with a lower carbon footprint.
Sustainability is embedded in every stage of production. We work with a carefully selected supply chain, ensuring materials and processes meet the highest eco-friendly standards. Our solar-powered warehouse runs on 100% renewable energy, with over 80% self-generated, minimising emissions from the outset.
By combining expert manufacturing with responsible choices, we reduce waste, cut energy consumption, and build bold, sustainable stands without compromise.
Our sustainability mission
Understanding your stand’s carbon footprint is key to continuous improvement. Our detailed post-show carbon reports break down emissions, sustainability efforts, and areas for future reduction, helping you make informed decisions for upcoming events.
We also support external sustainability programs, helping clients earn recognitions like the Better Stands Gold Award. Sustainability isn’t just about one stand, it’s about shaping the future of exhibitions.
Where emissions can’t be eliminated, we invest in high-quality carbon offset projects that align with our values. But for us, net zero isn’t a finish line – it’s an evolving journey.
Net zero exhibition stands use sustainable materials, minimise waste, and reduce carbon footprint through mitigation and offsetting. At Tecna, we focus on mitigation first through optimised manufacturing and logistics, using offsetting only as a last resort.
The culmination of our work in sustainable procurement and processes allows us to deliver net zero stand builds, with every core material having the option to be reused, or recycled post show. The perfect sustainable solution for your next event.
Absolutely! Tecna specialises in creating bespoke designs with sustainability at the core. We combine bold ideas with environmentally friendly practices to offer the perfect blend of sustainability and substance.
We’re constantly working towards a more sustainable exhibition industry, taking every possible step to provide businesses with high quality stand design to showcase their brand with minimal environmental impact.
A net zero exhibition stand isn’t just a sustainability badge, it’s a statement. It reduces waste, cuts costs, and reinforces your brand’s commitment to responsible exhibiting. Choosing a low-carbon stand enhances authenticity, reputation, and trust, showing your audience, that sustainability and standout design can go hand in hand.
Traditionally, single use plastics and wood would be used to create exhibition stands at events, causing significant waste. Net zero stands are made with durability, using a responsible supply chain and ecofriendly materials that can be reused or recycled.
From framework to flooring, materials should offer the option to be reused or recycled.
Through detailed lifecycle analysis; from materials and production to transport and energy use. Our unique carbon reporting service gives a full breakdown of environmental impact, helping exhibitors track and reduce emissions at every stage.
