Roadblocks for Green Exhibiting
Exhibitors and suppliers cite personal interest as a major reason for increased interest in Eco-Friendly Exhibiting Options.
Increased price is the primary obstacle to adopting Eco Sound Solutions as an industry standard. Statistics have shown an average price increase for Green Exhibiting Solutions of 25% to 30% higher versus traditional exhibits.
45% of all exhibitors are not aware of their supplier's participation in Eco Sound Solutions and the availability of Green Exhibiting.
The most influential factor for getting exhibitors to switch to Eco Sound Solutions is whether the “solution” offeres an upgrade in usability over traditional solutions.
