It doesn’t feel like it’s been all that long since we were all stuffing our faces with leftover mince pies and celebrating the new year, but 2026 is coming at the cleaning and hygiene industry at an incredible pace.
We’re about to head to Manchester for the 2026 Cleaning Show, which is
promising to be bigger than ever before, as it takes up more space than ever before at Manchester Central on 18-19 February. Just two months later, the industry will come together from around the globe in Amsterdam for Interclean Amsterdam 2026. This promises to be an incredible show, both in terms of scale and the
amazing potential of all the innovations that will be on display throughout the RAI Amsterdam from 14-17 April.
In this February issue of Tomorrow’s Cleaning, we’ve got a special focus on Healthcare Hygiene, as Essity’s Liam Mynes looks at ways to encourage better handwashing in healthcare settings, and Northwood’s Paul Mulready talks to us
about how hospitals and healthcare facilities can tackle winter viruses with simple washroom solutions.
In our Robotics & Automation section, ToolSense discusses the next phase of robotics management for the cleaning industry, while Bidvest Noonan’s Peter
Smyth chats with us about why human judgement is the critical factor in cleaning technology’s success.
Finally, we bring you a comprehensive guide to the Manchester Cleaning Show 2026, with everything from a floorplan and guide to the conference programme,
