Air Business Achieves ESSA Tier 4 Accreditation, Setting the Standard in Sustainable Event Logistics

Air Business Global Event Logistics is proud to announce it has achieved the Event Supplier and Services Association (ESSA) Tier 4 Sustainability Accreditation – one of the highest levels attainable – for Event Suppliers. This marks a significant milestone that reinforces the company’s commitment to sustainable business practices.

ESSA, the UK’s leading trade body representing event suppliers and service providers, recognised for driving high standards across the industry. The ESSA Sustainability Accreditation is a robust, evidence‑based assessment of how effectively sustainability is embedded within an organisation’s operations and its support for event organisers, exhibitors and contractors.

Following evaluations in waste management, energy efficiency, carbon tracking, sustainable purchasing, employee involvement and governance, this achievement reflects the company’s robust sustainability efforts and dedication to ongoing improvement.

“Achieving ESSA Tier 4 is a major advance for Air Business and a clear signal of the role we’re playing in raising standards across event logistics,” said Luke Stephens, Head of Event Operations and Strategy at Air Business and Vice Chair of ESSA’s Logistics Working Group. “Reaching this high-level accreditation within the first year of certification demonstrates that sustainability is not an add‑on for us – it’s embedded in how we operate, how we partner with clients and how we help shape a more responsible events industry.”

With this accreditation, Air Business is now ESSA’s highest‑graded logistics company for sustainability, firmly strengthening its position as a trusted partner for clients seeking to advance their own sustainability goals.
