This is what we're doing to address the carbon footprint of Slush 2024.
Slush has partnered with Supercritical to remove 100% of the carbon emissions from Slush 2024, including attendee travel.
Since we believe carbon removal is the only real way to address unavoidable emissions, we’re excited to work with Supercritical: a company vetting high-quality carbon removal projects in their marketplace.
We have 35 recycling stations and each has a volunteer to help you out with sorting. It might seem intimidating at first, but it’s very simple with a little help.
Thanks to this operation, we didn’t have any mixed waste by our event visitors in 2023. Let’s keep it up, shall we?
We collaborate with Pure Waste for our merch, as their commitment to sustainability uses 99% less water and produces 50% less CO2 compared to similar products made from virgin materials.
Some of our decorative elements have been used year after year.
If you’ve been attending Slush for several years, you might not have realized that you’ve been standing next to the same plexiglass curtain installation by Sun Effects multiple times.
We’ve switched to fiber-based cups that will be separately collected for recycling so that the fiber can be used again as raw material for packaging.
We’re teaming up with Huhtamaki to collect and recycle all cups at Slush. Progress will be tracked throughout the event.
Help us reach our goal.
Emissions from transport are a significant environmental challenge, and therefore Jylhä Logistics Oy has also invested significantly in sustainable development solutions. The company is committed to promoting carbon neutrality and aims to lead the way as a Finnish family-owned logistics company. Jylhä Logistics has been investing in lower-emission gas trucks since 2019. The trucks run on renewable liquefied biogas (LBG), which reduces greenhouse gas emissions by around 90% compared to traditional fossil fuels.
Environmentally friendly logistics is crucial for companies striving to meet tightened emissions standards, this makes Jylhä Logistics a natural choice as a logistics partner also for creating more sustainable events.
All food at Slush is vegetarian if not fully vegan. By serving mainly vegan food, we can cut food emissions even up to 50%.
We want to serve vegetarian meat alternatives giving visibility to new innovations and inspiring our attendees with options they didn’t know existed.
This year we’re collaborating with different Finnish vegan ingredient companies with a common goal of providing fulfilling, warm meals that keep you energized for busy event days.
You can get straight from your flight to Slush main event venue with one train in 38 minutes. Several trams, trains and buses will take you through the darkness from city centre to Messukeskus.
Public transportation in Helsinki is easy, efficient, and reliable and we encourage everyone to use it. You can buy tickets and find the best routes from the HSL app.
