THE CLEANING SHOW PREVIEW
The Perfect Fit
The Cleaning Show 2015 is finally here, and organisers Quartz, together with partners the British Cleaning Council, have promised a truly memorable event.
The show was moved from the NEC in Birmingham to London after independent research showed, after the last event in 2013, that both exhibitors and visitors preferred a show in the capital.
Organisers felt that as 60% of the largest and most profitable companies within the contract cleaning sector were based in and around London, it made sense to move nearer to these firms. They also wanted to attract more interest from buyers in Europe, and on the eve of the show, there are already many more advanced ticket sales from the continent than last time. Also, the European Federation of Cleaning Industries is holding its board meeting in London on the eve of the show, a sure sign that the Cleaning Show 2015 is making waves across the channel.
Big industry names – including Mitie, Numatic International, Prochem Europe, Reintec , Selden Research, Hydro Systems, Karcher, Kimberly- Clark Professional and many others
38
are signed up as sponsors, and there is a feeling that the Excel Arena and the cleaning industry is a perfect fit.
BCC Chairman Doug Cooke said he’s delighted they made the move: “Bringing the Cleaning Show to a venue like the Excel makes perfect sense, and in a way, sums up where we are as an industry, in that we are bigger and more professional than we’ve ever been. There’s a respect and recognition for our industry that wasn’t there a few years ago, so hosting our biggest showcase event at one of the UK’s premier venues reflects this progress.”
With just a few weeks to go, more than 5,000 pre-registered visitors from 57 countries had signed up to attend, and organisers are confident that many more will turn up on spec over the three-day event.
And there’s plenty to keep visitors engaged. Kicking things off on the first day is former England Scrum Half, Kyran Bracken, who’ll be talking about team work and motivation. There are other great keynotes speeches across the three days from Mitie, The Living Wage Foundation, BICSc, and many others.
As excitement for the Cleaning Show reaches fever pitch, the British Cleaning Council tell us a bit more about the move to its new home at the Excel Arena in London and why this year’s show is set to be the best yet.
One of the most exciting events is the Window Cleaning Competition, as existing world record holder, Terry ‘Turbo’ Burrows, is set to take on anyone who wants to try and break his long-standing world speed record for cleaning three regulation- size windows.
The Cleaning Show Innovation Awards will also be back, bigger and better than ever. This will take place on the first day of the show, with products demonstrated so that visitors can find out more, trial the latest products and technology, and place their orders.
The British Cleaning Council will have its own stand; B25, and sharing the stand this year will be; BICSc, BBS, ABDC, British Toilet Association, and the Building Futures Group.
BCC Chairman Doug Cooke added: “We’re so excited the show is finally here. So much work has gone into planning it; getting everything just right, and it all looks to have paid off. I think we do now have a truly international event that the whole industry can be proud of, and I look forward to meeting as many of you as I can over the course of the show.”
