SUSTAINABILITY
We know sustainability is increasingly important to our attendees and exhibitors, as well as to our market as a whole. Running an exhibition like “Auto Parts and Vehicle Expo ” ” gives us lots of opportunities to improve our impacts environmentally, socially, and economically in our region. We want to make our event more responsible and play a role in helping our markets improve its own sustainability through connecting people with the networks and knowledge they want to help solve the big challenges in our sector.

Auto Parts and Vehicle Expo 2024 Powered by Renewable Electricity
We are pleased to announce that as a part of our continued commitment to the sustainability of our event, this year we made the switch to 100% renewable electricity for our event. This resulted in our electricity use being carbon neutral, preventing the creation of 2,000 tons of CO2, and therefore significantly reducing our carbon impact.
Sustainability in Informa Markets
Auto Parts and Vehicle Expo 2024 is part of Informa Markets and the Informa Group. Sustainability at Informa focuses on the long-term impacts we have on customers, colleagues, the communities we work in, and the environment.
Many of our stakeholders are clearly telling us that sustainability (social, economic, and environmental) is something that is no longer nice to have but a necessary part of any event. We want to make sure we’re meeting those expectations, and we believe that being sustainable is the right thing to do.
We also recognise that it’s not just about the way we produce our events and products but recognizing that we have a role to play in providing a space to work in partnership together with our markets to inspire the sustainable development of the industries we serve. This is an ongoing process for us and we’re looking for ideas of how we can improve.
