Even though we’ve had great weather (including the two hottest days on record in July), it’s been a pretty tough summer so far. Along with ongoing staff shortages there’s a cost-of-living crisis hammering people, with inflation continuing to rise, energy costs spiralling, and fuel prices remaining high. These aren’t problems that can be quickly ironed out by the next Prime Minister – whoever that will be.
We’re likely going to have to get used to these conditions for a while, especially if we
do end up in a recession. Many businesses in the cleaning and hygiene industry have already had to make changes to their operations, and it remains to be seen how long
these issues will continue for, and how much pressure it will place on businesses in the coming months.
In this months’ issue of Tomorrow’s Cleaning, our Leisure & Hospitality feature includes insights into how Toucan Eco helped The Restaurant Group achieve a top sustainability rating, Paul from Northwood discusses how you can ensure your venue’s washroom can provide a safe and pleasant experience, and Kate from the Chartered Institute of
Environmental Health explains how you can maintain workplace safety and stay ahead of regulations.
We also take a look at Retail & Daytime cleaning, with MotorScrubber informing us why we need to ditch the traditional mop and bucket, Principle details their work at London’s One New Change, and Stuart from Essity asks how retail managers can improve the customer experience, make people feel safe, and keep costs down at the same time.

Finally, our Pest Control section is buzzing as Fantastic Services reveal why August is peak wasp season, and Natalie from the British Pest Control Association is itching to tell us why cleaners can use the humble vacuum cleaner to battle fleas.
Thank you very much for reading, and I hope you enjoy the issue!
