Our sustainability efforts at in-cosmetics Global
At in-cosmetics Global, sustainability is one of our main priorities. Reuse and recycling are key initiatives in our efforts to become a more environmentally friendly event. All the Innovation Zone pods have been reused since 2013, and our lab benches, make-up and sensory bar counters are reused year after year. Additionally, we have systems in place for our features that allow for reuse and generate less waste.
RAI Amsterdam is committed to sustainability and collaborates with us to make our event greener. Their "Sustainability as a Service" model focuses on creating value around environmental, social, and governance goals whilst reducing the events footprint. It provides organisers and exhibitors with the support they need to achieve their own sustainability objectives, ensuring a more eco-conscious and impactful event experience.
At RX, we are passionate about sustainability. Due to the urgent action that needs to be taken in relation to climate emergency we are aiming to become Net Zero by 2040 and to make a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
