Focus on sustainability: IMC Krems and Brantner revolutionize events!
In an exciting cooperation project, students of the Sustainability Management course at IMC Krems, in cooperation with Brantner Green Solutions, developed practical findings on the subject of waste prevention and climate protection at major events. The special focus is on the ecological effect, which can be achieved by avoiding disposable cups during a large event. Using an eleventh -day big event with around 120,000 visitors, the potential of these measures is impressive.
like meinzirk.at , the switch to a reusable cup system was able to save 170,000 to 220,000 one-way cups. This leads to a reduction of around 5,000 liters of crude oil and over 90%reduction in CO₂ emissions. Incidentally, this saving corresponds to the mileage of an electric car that drives three times around the world!
practical approaches for sustainable major events
Head of course Karl Michael Höferl emphasizes the effect of well -planned measures and underlines that working with Brantner opens up new perspectives between theory and practice. The company also sees great potential for avoiding waste at future major events and suggests that even smaller events can benefit from similar concepts.
Not only the students and Brantner rely on sustainable practices. The topic is also becoming increasingly relevant in the wider event industry.

There are also numerous practical approaches to the sustainable organization of events. These include the use of regional and seasonal foods as well as the provision of reusable systems for avoiding waste. The mobility of the visitors is also becoming more and more in focus. Combined tickets, special train offers and parking spaces for mobile communities are just a few of the many options that can help reduce ecological footprint. An important aspect for events are the right reusable cup systems. oekocup.de gives valuable tips for choosing the right cup size, color and quantity and explains that the planning and order can take sufficient time - usually between 14 and 21 working days. In order to avoid bottlenecks on top visits, it is recommended to plan a 30% reserve. The rapid delivery of cups without pressure or in the Ökocup Share variant also ensures flexibility. After ordering, the design is then in the foreground: Logos and choice of colors must be tailored to the cups to ensure an appealing presentation. The entire process from planning to production to delivery shows how important careful preparation is for the success of a sustainable event. The joint initiative of IMC Krems and Brantner illustrates how students and companies in Austria can work together on the future of major events in order to make them more environmentally friendly. If the right measures are implemented, we can all make a big difference and help protect the environment - at celebrations, festivals and events that bring us together.
