Sometimes sustainability is the small operational decisions behind the scenes that matter too.

Recently, we organised a dedicated WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) collection at our headquarters as part of our ongoing sustainability efforts.

The initiative gave us the opportunity to responsibly recycle outdated equipment, reduce unnecessary waste and encourage our team to bring in their unwanted items from home for recycling.

While event production is what we’re known for, we’re equally committed to reviewing our own processes and finding practical ways to operate more responsibly.

Progress rarely comes from one big change. More often, it’s built through lots of smaller decisions made consistently over time.

It’s all part of our wider sustainability journey as we continue strengthening our environmental practices and working towards further accreditations.

Across June, July and August our team are travelling across the UK and beyond to support all types of event fit-outs, overlays, full-scale builds and more intricate technical set-ups.

Every event brings its own audience, objectives and challenges – this variety is one of the things we enjoy most about our industry.

We’re already enjoying another busy summer on the road - hopefully we’ll see some familiar faces along the way!

The more events you deliver, the more you learn what works, what doesn’t and where the details matter most.

With 34+ years of delivering stand-out events, it’s fair to say we know that some skills only come with an experienced team…
> Detecting if potential challenges are likely to arise
> Understanding how to keep projects moving when plans change
> Keeping everything on track when timelines are set in stone

An established events production partner provides a team that knows how to stay calm under pressure, solve problems quickly and deliver consistent results.

If you’re planning an event and looking for an experienced event production partner, we’d love to hear from you.

As we look ahead to another busy summer of outdoor events, we're proud to continue supporting some of the UK's most recognised equestrian and sporting events.

Over the years, we've worked alongside organisers, venues and brands to deliver event environments that need to perform under pressure; often outdoors, across large sites and within demanding operational timelines.

One partnership we're particularly proud of is our long-standing relationship with Bramham Park.

Hearing that we've become a trusted partner over many years means a great deal to our team, because successful event delivery is built on consistency, collaboration and trust.

Thank you to Nicholas Pritchard and the Bramham Park team for the generous words and continued partnership.

We're looking forward to another busy season ahead!

Whether it’s tight build schedules, last-minute changes, complex venues or multiple suppliers moving at once - we know experience matters most when the pressure is on to deliver.

With over three decades in the event industry, we understand successful event delivery isn’t just about creating something that looks impressive on the day; it’s about having the processes, people and experience behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly from start to finish - on time and within budget.

At Henson Franklyn, we know how to adapt our approach across all sectors and event types, including exhibitions, sporting events, hospitality fit-outs and live brand experiences around the globe.

This helps us stay adaptable, solve problems calmly and deliver consistently for our clients year after year.

Whether you’re planning a single stand or managing a large-scale event calendar, having the right production partner makes all the difference.

Is sustainability becoming part of better event planning?

In 2026, organisations are increasingly prioritising ways to reduce waste and improve operational efficiency across their event programmes. This shift is also driving improvements in resource use, cost efficiency and long-term planning consistency.

At Henson Franklyn, we integrate sustainability considerations across the full event lifecycle, working with clients to deliver practical, scalable improvements that never compromise on quality. We are also progressing towards ISO accreditation as part of our ongoing commitment.

Our approach focuses on practical improvements that benefit both our clients and the environment:

• Designing reusable event structures and modular stand systems - supporting reuse across multiple events
• Reducing unnecessary single-use material - maintaining quality while improving efficiency
• Improving energy efficiency across operations - without impacting delivery standards
• Working towards more sustainable sourcing and supply chains - where appropriate
• Optimising transport and logistics planning - more efficient and considered event delivery

For any size organisations involved in delivering regular exhibitions, activations or live environments, smarter planning can improve consistency, reduce duplication and support more efficient future builds.

Great events can be delivered more responsibly, without compromising quality or experience.

May is another busy month for our UK build team supporting live event builds, from London and Birmingham to Yorkshire, Windsor and beyond.

Whether it’s world-class sporting events and exhibitions to hospitality environments or live experiences, the focus stays the same: careful planning, reliable delivery and attention to detail.

It’s always great working alongside our clients and partners across such a wide range of events in the UK and global calendar.

Wherever the events are, we are.

Great events happen through established processes and experienced teams.

At Henson Franklyn, our approach has been tested, refined and strengthened over the last three decades in the events industry - delivering consistent, reliable end-to-end outcomes for our clients across the event process.

From defining the brief and design, through to production, installation, fit-out. de-rig and planning for what comes next, every step is structured for a seamless experience. This enables our team to consistently produce exceptional event builds that are both high-quality and within budget across all sectors and event scales.

If you’re planning upcoming events and want a end-to end events partner who keeps things straightforward under pressure with global capabilities, we’d love to talk: hensonfranklyn.co.uk/contact

Creativity is at the heart of everything we do, and for us this means it has to do more than just look good. It has to work.

Every project starts with a question: how should this space perform? From there, we shape ideas into experiences that engage audiences, support brand objectives and deliver real impact.

That might mean designing interactive features that draw people in. Creating bold focal points that stop visitors in their tracks. Or building environments people want to share online - helping extend brand reach far beyond the event itself.

Our creativity doesn’t stop at concepts or design. It’s carried through every stage - from design and materials to build techniques and innovative sustainability features - ensuring the final result is as practical and reliable as it is visually striking.

The best creative ideas are considered, buildable and have a purpose.

Sustainability in events isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s becoming a commercial and operational priority.

For brands delivering multiple events each year, the question is no longer can we be more sustainable, it’s how to be sustainable without increasing cost or complexity?

At Henson Franklyn, we integrate sustainability into the process from the start:

1. Energy efficiency - reducing energy use through smarter technologies and build methods
2. Resource conservation - designing to minimise waste and make better use of materials
3. Sustainable supply chain - working with partners who meet responsible sourcing standards
4. Emissions reduction - improving transport and logistics to lower overall impact

But beyond targets, the real value is practical.

Designing for reuse means fewer rebuilds, less waste and more consistency across your event presence. Materials are stored, reconfigured and adapted - extending their lifecycle and your investment.

We believe it’s a smarter way of working. One that supports your sustainability goals while keeping delivery efficient and cost-effective.

If sustainability is part of your event strategy, we’d love to support it.
