Our CSR Commitment
Mountain Planet plays a pivotal role in uniting and guiding mountain industry stakeholders towards adopting innovative, carbon-conscious, and sustainable practices.The platform is instrumental in fostering a collective eco-responsible ethos. Although there's still much progress to be made, we've implemented eco-friendly communication strategies, made more mindful purchasing decisions, and cut down on waste. Additionally, we've established the most eco-efficient logistics feasible.
In recognition of these efforts, the 25th edition of the Mountain Planet trade show was honored with the "European Green Capital Event" label in 2022.
