on Monday 28 April 2025, myprintpod exhibited at the B2B Growth Hub Southampton Expo with Martin Whitbread from The Orange Train Wash.

the event was a useful opportunity to talk about sustainable manufacturing, recycling and the role of 3D printing in practical innovation.

we also had a good conversation with the Mayor of Southampton.

B2B Growth Hub Southampton Expo sustainability keynote and exhibition


sustainability in focus

myprintpod’s keynote on sustainability was scheduled for 13:30 UK time.

the core message was simple: sustainability has to be practical if businesses are going to adopt it.

that means looking at:

  • recycled materials
  • lower-waste production
  • useful local manufacturing
  • design choices that support reuse
  • measurable carbon impact

3D printing and practical innovation

additive manufacturing can help businesses move quickly from idea to usable part.

when combined with recycled materials and sensible design, it can also support more sustainable production routes.

for myprintpod, events like this are useful because they bring together local businesses, technical conversations and real-world problems that need practical answers.


working with The Orange Train Wash

exhibiting with The Orange Train Wash showed how collaboration can connect different parts of the innovation ecosystem.

industrial cleaning, manufacturing, sustainability and digital design all overlap when businesses are trying to build better products and services.

that is exactly where myprintpod aims to help.
