Sustainability

Discover our social and sustainability initiatives

Fispal Food Service and Fispal Sorvetes are committed to the sustainable development of the market. As opportunity creators, we play a key role in helping the entire food service community improve its own sustainability through content generation and business connections. We invite you to be part of this journey that transforms lives and positively impacts the planet!

Fispal Food Service is part of Informa Markets and the Informa Group. Sustainability at Informa focuses on the long-term impacts we create for customers, colleagues, the communities we work in, and the environment. For this reason, Informa developed the FasterForward approach to sustainable business. Informa's goal is to become an increasingly sustainable and positively impactful business. Through the FasterForward program, we are embedding sustainability into everything we do and leveraging opportunities to help our customers and markets do the same. FasterForward is a program structured into three parts, with ambitious commitments and a wide range of activities, covering Informa's business operations, our brands and products, and our broader impact on the community. When it comes to sustainability, we are moving faster.

As part of our commitment, we are focused on three sustainability pillars

Responsabilidade Ambiental
  • Better Stands Program: Raising awareness among our exhibitors and stand builders to use reusable stands, thereby reducing waste generation.
  • Reduction of printed materials, ensuring they are FSC-certified.
  • Use of LED lighting in the pavilion and Informa spaces, along with optimized air conditioning usage to reduce energy consumption.
  • Interactive kiosks spread throughout the event for exhibitor and product searches, reducing the need for printed pocket maps.
  • Selective waste collection and environmentally responsible disposal of all waste generated during the event.
  • We recycle the banners used at the fair for subsequent donation to the NGO Safrater (Sociedade de Amparo Fraterno Casa do Caminho) for social initiatives.
  • Use of carpets made from recycled PET, with 80% reused from previous events. Post-event waste is sent for recycling and transformed into new products.
  • Vegan and vegetarian food options available at the event's restaurants and snack bars.
  • At the event's exit, a designated area is provided for the conscious disposal of badges, which will be reused in future events.
Responsabilidade Social
