    🏅 And that's two! For the second time this year, Azelis has been recognized for its sustainability efforts at trade shows, thanks to the fantastic work of our partner Pitchkoff. ♻️ Better Stands, a program which aims to reduce single use disposable stands at exhibitions in favor of reusable structures, awarded Gold to the Azelis stand at the 2024 edition of CPHI, in Milan. Following a strict evaluation grid established by Better Stands, our stand was recognized for the reuse of its structure and various materials - flooring, graphic elements, facilities, etc. This way of designing our stands allows a massive reduction in waste, compared to fully disposable items. 🎊 Congrats and thanks to the Azelis team behind this work, and to Pitchkoff who made it all happen. We're not stopping there - we're committed to sustainability, and we're proud to show it to our visitors. #weareazelis #takingactiontogether
