Sustainability – our path to the future

Being part of our society, we, Messe München, are dedicated to our social and ecological responsibilities. Therefore, sustainability is an integral part of our corporate strategy.

We are committed ourselves to become CO₂ neutral by 2030 - 20 years ahead of the goal set out in the Paris Climate Agreement and 10 years earlier than targeted by the Association of the German Trade Fair Industry (AUMA).

For this purpose, we have developed a sustainability strategy tailored to the exhibition industry. As part of our holistic sustainability program, we continuously initiate projects, which aim to reduce the CO₂ emissions of Messe München.

We strive for sustainability for ourselves and our customers. We are actively promoting sustainability at our events.

Role model function

Our role as the world‘s leading trade fair entails accepting responsibility. That is why we want to express the principle of sustainability in our actions. We want to set a good example and make productronica more sustainable in an ongoing process, from the selection of materials and the handling of waste to the motivation of our exhibitors and visitors. Let’s join forces to walk this path together!

The electronics industry creates technologies that contribute to greater energy and resource efficiency. As the organizer of the world's leading trade fair for electronics development and production, we offer our customers a sustainable trade fair concept and an optimal environment. Let's work together to make productronica even more sustainable.

Acting sustainably. The measures taken by productronica.

World’s Leading Trade Fair for Electronics Development and ProductionThe electronics manufacturing industry is on its way to a more sustainable future. As the world’s leading trade fair of the industry, we not only want to set an example, but point the way.

Our priorities:

Climate-friendly trade fair stand construction

  • In order to conserve resources, we have decided to not use aisle carpets anymore.
  • We produce our stages, the Start-Up Area and other electronica areas from sustainable, resource-conserving materials.
  • Organise your CO₂-neutral trade fair booth directly from our partner meplan. You can make your booth even more sustainable with the "WOODï" system. "WOODï" cuts back on resources and offers you maximum flexibility when planning your booth.

Climate-optimized trade fair management

Our goal is to make productronica increasingly sustainable. However, CO₂ emissions can not be avoided while preparing and holding an event. Therefore we are supporting various climate protection projects in cooperation with our partner myclimate.

Eco-friendly infrastructure

  • The easy access to public transport allows you to get to productronica in an environmentally friendly way.
  • You can refuel your electric car at our 110 charging stations on the exhibition grounds.
  • Sustainable waste management: we dispose of waste resulting from construction and dismantling as commercial waste for recycling. Recyclable materials can thus be returned to the economic cycle.

Sustainable advertising materials

  • We reduce our print circulations and are constantly optimizing our digital advertising media.
  • Regarding the selection of printing substrates, Messe München focuses mainly on sustainable and certified materials.
  • We deliberately cooperate with printing companies that commit to the principle of sustainability.

Valuable partnerships

  • In cooperation with our partner myclimate we enable every visitor a CO₂-neutral journey to and from productronica.
  • Our catering suppliers rely on local supply chains.
