2016 Show highlights!

The issue of sustainability is ever important in today’s consumer world. With this showcase, Paperworld Middle East in its attempt to bring this subject to the fore, in which environmentally friendly products from exhibitors are featured in a special area, along with the ‘eco-credentials’ of the items.

Traditionally the Middle East has been known for its high consumption levels, but recently there has been a noticeable change in consumer patterns with greater emphasis on being environmentally responsible. Both corporates and individuals in the region are increasingly opting for ‘green’ products.

This trend is further emphasised by governments around the region setting new environmentally friendly regulations in an attempt to reduce their carbon footprints.

Supporting this development, Paperworld Middle East is highlighting products which are environmentally friendly, sustainable or made of recycled materials in a dedicated showcase area.

The “Green Office Area” serves as a guide for visitors interested in sourcing “green” products.
