Industry Tips-5 Ways to Conserve With Modular Rentals
At Concept Design Productions we take special pride in our “green” credentials. Since 1980, we have striven to develop products that make a big impact on the stage, not the environment. In a time when doing business in an eco-friendly way is easier than ever, we provide five great tips on how you too can conserve with modular rental products.

Use Eco—Friendly Materials
Sets are often built using wood and chemical—based paints. These elements are heavy, hard to maintain, and are often thrown away after one or two uses. Consider using materials like extruded aluminum, recycled plastics, and water—based paints. Choose materials that can be recycled and you’ll be doing your part to keep waste down.
Build To Last
Wood—constructed designs are cumbersome and difficult to keep in good shape. Consider renting modular products with sturdier materials like metal, plastic, and fabrics. It’s an efficient way of doing business in the 21st century and it will save you big bucks on construction costs. CDP carries high quality and carefully maintained metal, plastic and fabric scenic rental products. You will receive consistent products each time you rent.
Lighten The Load
In today’s economy, we’re lucky if we have enough to fill up the gas tank! Shipping is a major contributor to traffic and emissions on our nation’s highways, and with fuel costs at an all—time high, it’s expensive too. Try using designs that are lightweight and take less energy to transport such as stretched fabrics, acrylic materials and tubular metal designs.
Mix and Match
One of the founding principles at CDP has been to use modular rental stock that can be mixed and matched to create a wide variety of creative designs. When you use well—designed modular pieces, you can make a unique set every time — without the wastefulness of custom building.
Go Paperless
Going green isn’t just for the shop! In your office or on the road, you can go the extra mile to reduce your impact on the environment. Put your paper catalogue away and try our unique 45sets.com and 21sets.com website tools. Virtual schematics on line give you a better perspective on how a set will look. You can access it anywhere you have a laptop or handheld device and an internet connection. Look for our new advanced scenic website tool coming out soon.
