Germany-based Dussmann Group has reported record financial results for 2025, with consolidated sales rising 3.8 per cent to €3.4 billion, driven largely by strong performance in integrated facility management (IFM), including cleaning services.

The Dussmann division, encompassing IFM, food services and technical solutions, generated €2.8 billion, representing over 80 per cent of total Group revenue. Within this, facility management and food services combined grew by 6.9 per cent to €2.4 billion, underlining continued demand for outsourced cleaning and support services across Europe.

Growth was particularly notable in international markets. Dussmann Italy exceeded €1 billion in revenue, supported by expanded contracts across both private and public sectors. Key wins included large-scale cleaning and FM services for defence and police organisations, alongside commercial clients such as UniCredit and major fashion houses.

The company also strengthened long-standing partnerships, including with Boehringer Ingelheim, where services now extend to cleanroom cleaning and laboratory disinfection in highly sensitive production environments.

Dussmann is continuing to invest in automation, deploying robotic solutions for floor and window cleaning, including at Continental's tyre plant in the Czech Republic. These innovations form part of a broader strategy to enhance efficiency and support scalable, high-quality service delivery across its European FM portfolio.
