Events and exhibitions often leave behind a significant material footprint — but they don’t have to. Today, we have the knowledge, technology, and creativity to design experiences that are both impactful and environmentally responsible.
In this Beyond the Booth webinar, hosted by the Event Greening Forum on 16 October 2025, we explored how to design and build more sustainable exhibition stands by taking a lifecycle approach and using the right materials in the right ways.
Watch our recording and hear from two leading voices driving sustainable innovation in the display industry:
🌿 Steve Lister – A sustainability consultant who’s helped global brands like Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Nike reinvent their retail and event environments through smarter, more sustainable design. Recently named one of Retail Technology’s Top 100 Influencers, Steve brings deep insight into how sustainability and strategy meet in practice.
🌿 Gary van der Watt – A design and implementation consultant with Xanita, the South African company behind Xanita Board — a lightweight, fully recyclable material transforming how expo booths and displays are created around the world.
