Hello, We Recycle! – Exhibition Carpet Recycling is a Matter Close to Our Hearts
Environmental issues have also become a topic of discussion in the world of exhibitions and trade shows.
At Expomatto Oy, we’ve operated according to the principles of sustainable development from the very beginning, striving to enhance the recycling and reuse of exhibition carpets. For a long time now, all of our exhibition carpets have been made from 100% recyclable materials. We’ve found that this is a competitive advantage for our company, helping us stand out positively in the market.
For years, we’ve promoted exhibition carpet recycling, and a large community of entrepreneurs has formed around us, to whom we supply all carpets that are removed from exhibition use. This includes numerous construction and renovation companies, dog training centers, food service businesses, and market vendors. In addition, many different craft workshops, educational centers, packaging companies, and private consumers line up to get our used exhibition carpets.
Used exhibition carpet has found new life as beautiful bags, laptop protectors, wallets, or even as the surface material for a cat’s scratching post. The mat is an incredibly versatile material with a wide range of colors to choose from. A growing number of our corporate and contract customers require us not only to deliver and install the carpets but also to dismantle and recycle them.
Our Imported Exhibition Carpets are Now Cradle to Cradle Silver Certified
Expomatto Oy’s imported and most popular exhibition carpets, such as Expoline, Expostyle, and Expoluxe, have now earned the highly sought-after Cradle to Cradle Certified® designation. These exhibition carpets are manufactured by SOMMER NEEDLEPUNCH in Baisieux, France, and belong to the manufacturer’s EXPOCARE product group.
The Cradle to Cradle Certified® certification is the world’s most recognized and respected certification for products designed according to circular economy principles. The certification, granted by the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute, verifies that a company is genuinely moving toward a circular business model where products are safe, materials are kept in an endless loop, and waste and emissions are minimized. We are the only Finnish importer to have as many as three of our best-selling and most popular exhibition carpets certified as Cradle to Cradle!
You can learn more about SOMMER NEEDLEPUNCH’s Cradle to Cradle Certified® Silver certification [here].
We want to offer our customers a complete service from installation to dismantling and recycling. This way, the exhibition carpets used during your event are left to us for recycling.
