A Commitment to Sustainability
KitPlus Auctions, a prominent auction marketplace dedicated to promoting sustainability through the sale of used audio-visual and broadcast equipment, is thrilled to announce several significant milestones achieved in 2024. These accomplishments underscore the company’s unwavering commitment to the circular economy and its efforts to help clients make a positive environmental impact.
Recognition at the Corporate Star Awards
In recognition of its innovative approach to sustainability, KitPlus Auctions was honoured with the prestigious Net Zero Innovation award at the Corporate Star Awards in Amsterdam during the International Broadcasting Convention (IBC) 2024. This accolade acknowledges the company’s pivotal role in assisting clients in reducing their carbon footprints and striving towards net-zero operations. The award reflects KitPlus Auctions’ dedication to providing clients with eco-friendly solutions that deliver both economic and environmental benefits.
Achieving a Milestone in Carbon Savings
In addition to receiving this esteemed award, KitPlus Auctions has reached a critical environmental milestone by helping its clients save over 500 tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent gases) in 2024. To put this achievement into perspective, this carbon saving is equivalent to flying return from London to Hong Kong 142 times. This remarkable feat has been made possible through the sale of used film, broadcast, lighting, and audio-visual equipment, which significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to the manufacturing of new products.
Client Testimonials on Environmental Impact
Matthew Robbins, a spokesperson for KitPlus Auctions, expressed pride in the progress made this year, stating, “We are incredibly proud of the progress we have made this year. These milestones go beyond mere numbers; they reflect our continuous commitment to helping clients lower their carbon footprints and engage in a circular economy. Winning the Corporate Star Award for net-zero innovation and assisting our clients in saving 500 tonnes of CO2e truly demonstrates the significant impact our marketplace can achieve.

At the heart of KitPlus Auctions’ mission is the promotion of a circular economy—an economic model focused on keeping products, equipment, and materials in use for as long as possible. By facilitating the resale and reuse of broadcast equipment, the company not only helps reduce waste but also provides cost-effective alternatives for businesses seeking to upgrade their technology without compromising on sustainability.

By offering a trusted platform for the resale of goods, the company enables clients to make greener choices, contributing to a more circular and resilient economy.
