ECJ EUROPEAN Cleaning Journal

UK cleaning exhibition The Cleaning Show returns to London ExCeL from November 2-4.

The show, organised by the British Cleaning Council (BCC) and Quartz Business Media, is aiming to attract more than 7,000 senior cleaning professionals from across the contract cleaning, facilities management (FM), healthcare, hospitality, retail, and public services sectors. More than 60 exhibitors have now been confirmed.

Taking place alongside the exhibition is a conference programme where visitors can learn and discuss the latest developments, and the critical next steps for an industry on the frontline of public health and safety. Topics will include the role of cleaning in protecting public health and safety; how autonomous cleaning can support and enhance current cleaning practices; and how employing new technology can deliver a modern cleaning service.

New for 2021, the Cleaning & Support Services Association (CSSA) will be hosting its 2021 CSSA Innovation Showcase in a dedicated pavilion at the event to highlight and celebrate the industry's most innovative cleaning products, services and initiatives.

BCC chairman Jim Melvin commented: "This past year has more than demonstrated the importance of the cleaning and hygiene industry, which reacted and helped significantly and professionally in safeguarding and protecting the public in order to ensure that the UK's commercial and public spaces are safe.

"Continuing to spearhead innovation, the industry has quickly adapted to all of the emerging challenges, and we are truly excited to return to the ExCeL."
