In keeping with the theme of the Awards, the guest speaker was Charlie Luxton, architectural designer and TV presenter who puts sustainability at the heart of his work. Charlie shared his thoughts on our need to always consider sustainability and our environment when undertaking any development or refurbishment project.
Mika commented: “To complete our sustainable approach, Planet Mark, a leading sustainability certification, is ensuring that Metsä Tissue’s UK Sustainability Awards 2023 are carbon neutral in accordance with internationally recognised specification for carbon neutrality published by BSI (PAS2060). In addition to verifying the Award’s carbon neutrality status, we were pleased to welcome Planet Mark’s founder and CEO, Steve Malkin, onto our judging panel.”

Due to the high level of interest in this year’s Awards, the next Awards Ceremony is already provisionally booked for 19 March 2025 – the middle day of the next Cleaning Show in London. It’s currently only a provisional date because The Cleaning Show itself has only provisionally booked the 18- 20 March slot with ExCeL London.
Mika concluded: “This competition has shown us that the cleaning and hygiene industry is striving to embrace sustainability in its practices. We have been incredibly impressed by the projects and initiatives highlighted by the entrants, and we feel strongly that this momentum should be maintained. This is why we have already begun preparations for this next event.”
The location for the next event will likely be OceanDiva – the first carbon neutral venue on the river Thames in the heart of the City, which can accommodate many more attendees.
