OTHER INFORMATION
Environmental Policy
Congress Centre is one of Central Londons leading conference venues in the heart of the west end. As a venue the management team are committed to make improvements in our environmental performance. We have already put many measures together and are continuously looking for new ways to improve. We are ever mindful when purchasing new equipment to ensure energy saving and re-usable elements within all associated products. Congress Centre currently carries out the following initiatives:
Recycling
This is extremely important and we recognise to recycle materials wherever possible. We are now using 100% recycled paper throughout all offices in the building. The venue and internal offices have reduced from 5 Euro bins of waste every day to 3 bins this is a great success and we are looking to reduce this even further. Congress Centre use recycled note pads, pencils, coasters, flipchart paper and pens for all meetings.

Energy Use
We recognise the importance of the simple matter of using energy saving bulbs and have introduced this to all appropriate areas in the building.
We have already invested in a High Efficiency (non-Atmospheric) Modular boiler. This will maximise efficiency of fuel gasses. This is more efficient and therefore consumes less gas than the standard atmospheric type. The Venue also has reactive censored lighting in all toilets in the building.
Suppliers
We are working with our suppliers to ensure that they recognise and reduce the environmental impact of their products, packaging and transportation.
Catering
Congress Centre promote the use of Fairtrade Tea/Coffee and sugar in the venue.
