ECJ EUROPEAN Cleaning Journal

The organisers of the Cleaning Products Europe conference in the UK from March 25-27 have announced details of the programme. It features speakers from all levels of the supply chain from household and I&I cleaning products manufacturers to chemical suppliers and regulatory bodies to retail representatives.

The agenda focuses on offering an overview of forthcoming developments set to impact or disrupt the industry. Featuring perspectives from external stakeholders, the conference will begin by setting the mutual vision for the industry, including presentations from the European Commission, DG Environment, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development and WWF.

Unilever and P&G will co-chair the conference and give their insights on sanitisation and hygiene consumer benefits, regulatory and safety considerations and sustainable consumer behaviour. The machinery sector, I&I sector and textile industry will also be present to provide updates on their sectors' trends and opportunities.

Speakers from the I&I sector include Dr Ilham Kadri of Sealed Air Diversey Care and Valerie Fotheringham of Evans Vanodine.

Delegates can also participate in a pre-conference workshop focusing on regulatory matters affecting the cleaning products industry and providing an overview of all relevant regulatory issues for both a biocidal and non-biocidal product.
