Playbook · ESCA × EDPA Sustainability Guidance
Free. Fast. Start this week.
Nothing here requires a budget line, a committee, or a certification. Hand this page to the office manager, the warehouse lead, the show ops team. Every item can be done by Friday. Bookmark it. Come back next Monday.
How:
It’s not a pledge on a homepage. It’s the hundred small choices made when no one is watching — specifying honeycomb instead of foam-core on a job no client asked about, turning the booth off overnight because leaving it on is lazy, telling a vendor “we won’t use PVC anymore” and meaning it. That’s the work. Ready for bigger moves? Tips, tricks & 90-day plans →
The sixteen practices that feed the four pillars.
The pillars tell you what to measure. The practices tell you how. This is the operational layer — the daily choices that roll up into your score. The practice chips on the Pillars page link straight to these cards.
Six phases. Tick as you go.
Concrete actions for every phase of a show, from the first design meeting to the post-show report. Pick your role to see only the actions you can take. Each action links to the lesson behind it and, where it fits, to the scorecard question it moves.
New here? Find your role for a short page of where you have the most influence and your first five moves.
This is guidance, not a rulebook. Use the actions that fit your work, and make your own decisions about suppliers and materials. Where an action touches the law, it says so; nothing here is legal advice.
