Sustainability

The tissue industry has a strong commitment to sustainability, paving the way for an eco-friendly future. 

Tissue World shares this dedication, reflected in the sustainable initiatives at our events.

As part of our commitment, we are focusing on:

Event Icon

The event

  • Event badges: Plastic wallets for badges are eliminated. Lanyards are made from sustainable sources, with recycling bins provided for them. Badges are printed on recyclable paper.
  • Show guide: Integrated into the magazine to save paper, locally printed to reduce emissions and transport costs. Pages are crafted from FSC-certified paper, ensuring responsible production and sourcing.
Better Stands Icon

Better stands

  • Informa Connect, the organisers of Tissue World, are spearheading our "Better Stands," initiative, which actively phases out disposable stands.
  • Reusable structures minimise waste, expedite assembly and disassembly, lower costs, and facilitate investments in top-quality stands.
Diversity & Wellbeing

Diversity & wellbeing

The diversity (i.e. gender, race, LGBTQIA+, age) of our speakers is of high importance as part of the planning of the event, and we have achieved some diversity on every panel.

Sustainability Seminars Icon

Sustainability seminars

  • There is a unifying issue faced by all in the tissue industry: how to consider and embody sustainability, specifically energy efficiency and decarbonization, throughout manufacturing processes. 
  • A common thread throughout the conference, will be how to address these challenges
