Waste Reduction Initiative
Country Celebration is striving to become a Zero Waste event and a leader in waste reduction. We encourage all vendors and exhibitors to help us achieve this goal. Our success is dependent on your cooperation and participation.
Here are just a few ideas on how exhibitors and vendors can help reduce waste at the event.
| Commonly used material | Alternative |
|---|
| Plastic bags | Encourage visitors to use re-useable tote bags. |
| Promotional and educational literature | Have display copies and encourage visitors to use the internet to access them at home. |
| Paper handouts | Be discretionary about the quantity and size of handouts you provide e.g. business cards instead of brochures. Use paper with recycled content. |
| Wrapping paper | Use newspaper and other paper packing material. Avoid the use of plastic and Styrofoam. |
| Single serve, individually wrapped candies | Avoid excessive packaging. Try interactive low waste incentives to attract audiences such as games or prize draws. |
| Children’s craft supplies | Re-use old items rather than new e.g. off-cuts, discards, misprints and over-stock. |
