In the first half of 2025, the recycling rate of waste management continued to increase and now stands at 24%. The Centre calculates its carbon footprint, and in addition, the Events & Congresses business uses event-specific carbon footprint calculations. "We want to offer our customers events with a smaller carbon footprint. Energy efficiency and sustainability go hand in hand. We train our staff in energy-efficient thinking and report regularly on our energy consumption. For us, sustainability is about concrete action," says Sustainability Manager Hanne Lindroos. Helsinki Expo and Convention Centre's sustainability efforts are supported by ISO 14001 certification, climate partnership with the City of Helsinki, commitment to the Glasgow Climate Declaration and the Sustainable Travel Finland label. The Holiday Inn Helsinki – Expo, located at Helsinki Expo and Convention Centre, is the world's first Holiday Inn® hotel with the Nordic Swan Ecolabel.
