By choosing AYRE, you’re not just getting expert event production; you’re working with a partner that takes responsibility for the bigger picture. Together, we can:

• • Enhance your brand reputation by aligning with sustainable practices.

  • Reduce the environmental footprint of your event.

  • Demonstrate responsibility to stakeholders, employees, and audiences.

Events often mean big travel, heavy kit, and high energy use – but we make conscious choices to cut impact. From smart scheduling and load planning to consolidating deliveries, we actively reduce road miles and minimise wasted resources without compromising production quality.

Sustainability doesn’t start on show day; it’s built into our daily operations. In our warehouse, we maintain and repair equipment to extend its life, carry out regular PAT testing to ensure safety and efficiency, and run operations with controlled energy use. Every stage of preparation is designed with longevity and responsibility in mind.

We know sustainability works best when it’s a shared effort. That’s why we support clients in making greener decisions, from opting for LED lighting over traditional fixtures, to choosing digital signage in place of print, or exploring hybrid event formats to cut down on travel. Small changes can make a big difference when applied across large events.

Sustainability is never finished. We’re exploring emerging technologies such as battery storage, eco-materials for staging, and closer partnerships with venues who share our values. Our goal is to continuously raise the bar; for ourselves, for our clients, and for the wider events industry.

As a registered waste carrier, AYRE holds the proper licensing to responsibly transport and manage waste generated at events. This means we don’t just leave rubbish behind; we bring materials back to our warehouse for sorting and recycling, ensuring plastics, metals, and consumables are handled in line with environmental regulations. For clients, it means peace of mind that every part of the event is delivered responsibly, right through to the clear-down.
