Environment

Structurz Exhibits and Graphics is the Exclusive Authorized Distributor of Nimlok, manufacturer of Environmentally Responsible and Eco-friendly Trade Show Displays

Eco-friendly trade show displays are at the core of the company’s philosophy. Going green is more than just a trend; it is a commitment to a philosophy that is at the core of everything we do. It is a way of life, thinking, speaking and acting. It continually evolves and changes which mean that it must be evaluated often.

As our knowledge of the environmental issues change, we make a commitment for continuous improvement. Reaching and obtaining ‘Green’ takes constant dedication. For more than 37 years, Nimlok has set the pace in the exhibit industry by producing sound and recyclable display and exhibit solutions in the United States and abroad. In March, 2010, Nimlok became the first North American company in its class to achieve ISO 14001:2004 certification, recognizing an organization’s high level commitment to environmental protection.

Recognizing that the world’s natural resources are limited and fragile, Nimlok considers environmental protection to be consistent with its overall goals and values. At Nimlok, we strive to minimize our impact on the environment in the design, manufacture, and storage of exhibition stands. The management team of Nimlok is committed to:

Eco-friendly trade show displays and reusable materials
Compliance with relevant legal environmental legislation, regulations and other requirements
Promoting the prevention of pollution
Continual improvement of the environmental management system
Striving to ensure that activities, products, and processes conform to the ISO 14001 standard and environmental requirements
This policy will be the basis for setting environmental objectives and targets. All employees are made aware of the policy during initial training and/or induction. The Environmental Policy is communicated to all contractors and visitors and is made available to you in written form and via our web site.
Reusable Trade Show Exhibits And Displays
We take an active and serious role in helping our clients achieve their goal to ‘go green.’ From our founding in 1970, reusability has been the core value of all of Nimlok’s trade show exhibits and solutions. We have always believed passionately that there is a better way than the ‘build and trash’ philosophy that has dominated the majority of traditional display and exhibit construction. ‘The Nimlok Way’ is based on modular, reconfigurable trade show exhibits and solutions that are engineered, from the start, to be used again and again.
A testament to the reusability of Nimlok products is the very large quantity of Nimlok equipment still in daily use after more than a quarter of a century. We continue to see large number of clients who continue to reconfigure their Nimlok properties year after year to meet their growing needs
Trade Show Exhibit Recycling Program

We are also focused on ensuring we create trade show exhibits that maximize recycled content. Our new designs specifically include components that are produced using easily and commonly recycled materials including aluminum and cardboard. On average, 95% of the materials in our new designs, based on the total exhibit weight, can be recycled. We also have initiated a trade show exhibit recycling program, designed to keep old exhibits out of landfill sites. At the end of an exhibit’s life, our clients are invited to return it to Nimlok. We will then sort the components by content and direct them to the recycle stream, at no additional cost to our clients. It’s simply a part of the total exhibiting solution that Nimlok provides.

Harmful Compounds
Nimlok is constantly looking for new processes that reduce the harmful elements traditionally used in the exhibit manufacturing process. For example, we were the first company in our industry to eliminate airborne solvent-based adhesive particles with a hot melt process. Our leading edge graphics production facility has eliminated the use of solvent-based printing processes commonly used in this arena by investing heavily in alternative methods which have less social and environmental impact.

We believe Nimlok is at the absolute forefront of companies in the event and exhibit industry in the use of environmentally friendly printing technology.

A Culture Of Environmental Awareness And Best Practice
Nimlok is the world’s largest supplier of modular and reusable trade show display and trade show exhibit equipment, yet remains a family business. Great people and our strong culture are foremost contributors to our success, and we highly value the ethical and long-term perspective. This perspective includes the desire to make environmental considerations central to the way we do business in the 21st century.
Recyclability

Nimlok operates a recycle program for all paper, cardboard, and aluminum so that the unavoidable waste from both administration and production are recycled. Its marketing strategy has deliberately moved away from paper-based campaigns where possible and demonstrates a reduction of 50% in printed matter for the last two years alone
