Cube celebrates Product Innovation Award win at UK Events Summit

The Cube Modular team celebrated another award win this week, voted on by its event industry peer group. The award was for Best Product Innovation, presented for its Continest range of unique sustainable foldable buildings. The Major Events International (MEI) Awards Dinner took place on 22 February at Emirates Old Trafford on the evening before the UK Events Summit 2022.

Cube’s Continest portable buildings have fast become the go-to solution for events looking to increase their facility capacity in an environmentally conscious way, whilst reducing transport, storage and logistics costs. Folded flat for transport and erected on site in just a few minutes, they provide robust and flexible temporary infrastructure for any venue, enabling events to reduce their CO2 and GHG emissions by up to 80%, compared to using traditional fixed framed cabins. 

Cube Modular’s MD Brandon Weston hosted a panel on sustainability during the Summit, which brought together event professionals from across the UK to network with market experts and peers and discuss current challenges.

“Reducing carbon footprint is becoming an increasing focus for event organisers year on year and I’m grateful to our event industry peers for voting for our eco-friendly portable building solution”, commented Brandon. “We had a very interesting discussion on sustainability with a knowledgeable panel.”

Cube’s Continest range of CN10 and CN20 units can be adapted for multiple usages, allowing the delivery of an entire event infrastructure on just two trucks. Eg, 10 CN20 units can be delivered on one truck, including box office, merchandise and food & beverage units, as well as accreditation and production offices. On the second truck, 20 CN10 units can be delivered for use as ticket offices, dressing rooms, radio control, security offices and much more. Units can also be jointed together to create larger open-plan spaces or multi storey buildings – a versatile, complete range of buildings to meet any event’s portable accommodation requirements.

Cube Wins Prestigious Green Supplier Award at Festival Supplier Awards 2022

Last night, the Cube Modular team celebrated its latest accolade after scooping the Green Supplier Award at the Festival Supplier Awards 2022, an event held at London’s exclusive Hurlingham Club.

The award was presented to the team in recognition of its contribution to providing sustainable portable buildings to the UK Festival market after introducing its eco-friendly Continest foldable buildings to the festival industry in 2021, taking the UK festival season by storm! Despite the unique challenges facing all event organisers and suppliers in the current climate, Cube supplied and installed 204 units across 18 festivals between June and September that year. Event organisers chose Cube for the sustainability credentials of its Continest system, coupled with reduced haulage costs.

“The winner of this category has a really exciting and impactful sustainable product for the event industry. It is great to see innovative products like this coming forward!” – the Festival Supplier Awards 2022 judges.

Our unique portable accommodation solution enables festivals to reduce their CO2 and GHG emissions, through the transportation of our portable buildings to their event, by up to 80%, compared to using traditional fixed framed cabins. 

“It’s extremely gratifying to see the brilliant Continest foldable cabin system recognised for the drastic cuts in carbon emissions that it achieves,” said Brandon Weston, Cube Modular’s MD. “I’m really proud to see the team’s efforts rewarded too in what was a very challenging season accommodating changing requirements.”

The largest single installation undertaken in 2021 was at Lost Village, where Cube provided a complete staff and production management infrastructure using 52 of its Continest CN20 units. This comprised three ticket offices and a wide range of site, production, operations and management offices, a radio shack, dressing rooms, security cabins, stores and a press office.

Other festivals using Cube Modular products in 2021 included We Out Here, Reading Festival, Wireless, The Cambridge Club and Strawberries and Creem.
