Registration for the sixth Sustainable Living Exhibition 2015, taking place at the Durban Exhibition Centre from 14 to 16 August 2015, is now open and those interested in participating are urged to register early as stands are limited.
The Indigenous Plant Fair hosted by KZN Botanical Society will also be taking place as part of the exhibition.
The Exhibition hosted by eThekwini Municipality, through the Imagine Durban Project, aims to showcase ways in which people can live a greener, more sustainable lifestyle. The Municipality is calling on companies with green technology, water and energy saving devices, innovative recycling solutions, and other products to participate.
This unique, multifaceted event focuses on renewable energy and energy efficiency, waste minimisation, up-cycling and recycling, water harvesting and conservation, food security and greening, environmental advocacy, creative arts, health and wellbeing and social justice.
Senior Manager for eThekwini’s Long Term Planning Bongumusa Zondo, said: “The exhibition provides a fantastic environment for sharing of ideas, peer learning, networking while demonstrating a possibility for everyone to contribute towards building a more livable, caring and sustainable community.”
The exhibition has shown a steady increase in the number of exhibitors and visitors. It brings together all sectors in the greening industry under one roof, making it a one stop shop for people looking for that ideal solution to live more sustainable lifestyles – a solution that your business could offer.
The exhibition is a hub of innovation that provides inspiration and networking opportunities to those in the sustainability and greening industry. It is also the opportune platform to tap into new markets and explore other opportunities.
The region is currently facing a water shortage and the country is facing an electricity crisis. This platform is the ideal opportunity to showcase mechanisms that would save energy and water.
Those who are passionate about saving the environment and living a healthy lifestyle, this is an ideal platform for them to showcase their efforts. Exhibitors will be able to sell, network and showcase their products.
Building a more sustainable City is a collective responsibility of all citizens. The exhibition is open to all sectors of society, including business, non-profit organisations, government, state owned enterprises, schools and individuals.
