UK-based provider of furniture and event solutions, Creative Hire has announced that it has achieved a Level 3 Sustainability Accreditation from the Event Supplier and Services Association (ESSA). The achievement underscores Creative Hire’s commitment to sustainability, as it reinforces its leadership in eco-conscious event solutions.

The ESSA Level 3 Sustainability Accreditation highlights Creative Hire’s commitment to sustainable practices, including responsible sourcing, waste reduction, and energy efficiency, reinforcing its positive environmental impact in the events sector.

As part of its ongoing sustainability initiatives, Creative Hire has partnered with Green Circle Solutions to provide carbon emission reports for every exhibition and event they supply. This collaboration allows Creative Hire to provide clients with insights into their events’ carbon emissions, helping them make informed, sustainable decisions.

“We’re thrilled to have received the Level 3 Sustainability Accreditation from ESSA, and our partnership with Green Circle Solutions has been key in delivering meaningful carbon reporting to our clients,” said Adam Aston, Owner of Creative Hire. “Sustainability has always been at the heart of our business, and with this new reporting service, we’re helping our clients reduce their carbon footprint while delivering exceptional event experiences. It’s a win for both our clients and the environment.”

Creative Hire goes beyond carbon reporting, focusing on reusing furniture, repurposing materials, and investing in energy efficiency. Through its partnership with Green Circle Solutions, the company helps clients make sustainable choices throughout event planning.

David Humphreys, director at Green Circle Solutions, said: “Green Circle Solutions has been working with Creative Hire for over a year now, and they have very quickly been able to transform some good intentions and a loose environmental statement into a well developed sustainability strategy with a clear direction and action items for reducing their impact.”

He added: “Having undertaken a baseline carbon emissions analysis for the business, Creative Hire soon saw the benefits of being able to communicate directly to clients about the carbon impact of each project and have engaged with the GCS project carbon calculator, providing detailed carbon reports for every event activation.”

The Creative Hire Green Team has been key to success, driving staff engagement and advancing the company’s sustainability strategy with full senior management support.
