Rental velvets at Belt & Road Summit conference
Hong Kong, China
February 2024
The Belt and Road Summit chose sustainability by dressing their most recent conference with a large amount of rental velvets from ShowTex.
Flame-retardant fabrics dress up congress
Being known as a platform for international collaboration, the B&R conference needs to meet high fire safety standards. That’s why the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) teamed up with ShowTex to provide flame-retardant fabric solutions for the event. Velours Delta turned out the perfect fit with its elegant and inherently fire-rated features.
By opting for a royal blue fabric tone, the Delta velvets give the venue a professional yet elegant look. Who says meeting fire regulations should result in boring designs?
Choosing rental fabrics = choosing sustainability
In the ever-changing event and entertainment industry, one of the biggest challenges for customers to tackle is fabric waste. The corporate event organisers were very aware of this problem and therefore picked the more sustainable option available at ShowTex: rental fabrics. Thanks to the choice to decorate the event venue with rental velours, the organizers avoided a whopping 5.000 sqm of textile waste. Speaking of thinking green!
From fabrics to temporary wall systems and hardware solutions, ShowTex' rental options are available for any production or event. On the lookout for a greener fit for your project?
