In order to bring greenhouse gas emissions to net zero, we as organizers also feel obliged to reduce our emissions. These are our first steps, which are being implemented for Polymesse 2024:

- We are reducing the number of printed exhibition guides from 3,200 to 2,000 copies.

- We are ordering vegetarian and vegan catering from the ZFV-Unternehmungen cooperative (ZFV).

- We recommend using public transportation or car sharing to get to the fair.

- We rely on the alternative to PET bottles: Fountain
Natural essences are added directly to the tap water and filled into your reusable bottle.

In cooperation with ETH Sustainability, we are striving to comply with the Sustainable Events Guide.

In this context, we have introduced the Sustainability section in the exhibition guide.

We are pleased that all companies are pulling in the same direction.

Travel by public transport is strongly recommended
From Zurich main station or Zurich airport, take tram no. 6 or 10 to ETH/Universitätsspital stop.
