Waste Not




Want to set a green example for your exhibitors? Take a cue from exhibitor Joey Roth, who constructed his summer 2009 New York International Gift Fair (NYIGF) booth exclusively from materials discarded during the Fair’s two-day set-up phase. Armed with just a hammer, a Japanese ryoba saw, a carpenter’s ruler and his sketchbook, Roth repurposed plywood pallets, carpet off-cuts and other exhibitor waste materials into a functional and attractive booth.
