Objetivo compartido

A shared goal

Find out how we help our clients organise more sustainable events, from personalised advice to the implementation of eco-friendly practices in every detail. Count on us to help you achieve your goal. In the meantime, here are the keys to sustainable events.

  • 1

    Carry out a plan for optimising energy resources and adopt measures for the reuse and recycling of materials.

  • 2

    Take water consumption into consideration. Opt for drinking fountains and jugs, and bear in mind that our facilities have specific water-saving measures in high-demand areas such as toilets.

  • 3

    Inform your event’s audience about sustainable mobility options. FYCMA is connected to the city centre by several city bus lines, has a suburban train station in the vicinity from the municipalities of the west coast and offers the possibility of parking bicycles and scooters near the entrance.

  • 4

    Prioritise digital support in communication and promotion actions.

  • 5

    Raise awareness and inform your collaborators, partners or suppliers about sustainability principles and good environmental practices. We can support you in the management of the coordination of business activities in the assemblies between the different participating companies.

  • 6

    Consider the possibility of incorporating green areas and spaces in the assembly.

  • 7

    In the catering and restaurant section, work with adjusted figures to avoid surpluses. If this is not possible, identify authorised entities to propose measures to make use of them. Prioritise menus with seasonal and local products and avoid as far as possible the use of plastic in kitchenware and cutlery.

  • 8

    Propose a solidarity action aligned with the objectives of your event. Identify like-minded organisations that can carry it out with all the guarantees.

  • 9

    Evaluate the application of these practices at the end of the event and analyse its impact on the environment to detect areas for improvement. At FYCMA we can help you measure the carbon footprint of your event.
