Looking forward to Europe’s biggest cleaning industry show
27th of February 2024 Article by Robert StellingEurope’s largest exhibition for the professional cleaning sector - Interclean Amsterdam - will take place from May 14-17 at RAI Amsterdam. Robert Stelling, director of Interclean global events at RAI Amsterdam, tells us more about what to expect in this exclusive piece for ECJ. ECJ is the official media partner of Interclean Amsterdam.
This year Interclean is pulling out all the stops. Our team has been busy working to organise a truly world class and unique event. It promises to be informative, inspirational and entertaining. We’ve worked hard to bring our visitors exclusive content about the world’s most cutting-edge technologies, trends and solutions - all geared towards helping visitors to discover
the best products, services and connections.
With 11 halls featuring more than 900 exhibitors showcasing their latest products, services and knowledge, it’s set to be a groundbreaking edition. The line-up promises to be bigger, better and bolder than ever. In-person meeting is vital for networking and showcasing innovations and - with exhibitors from across the globe, representing every sector of the industry - we’re able to provide the full overview of the latest advances and developments in professional cleaning and hygiene under one roof.
More than a trade show
Interclean provides you with the latest news, views and analysis on cleaning and hygiene. Showcasing the products, services and innovations from the world’s leading industry experts and companies, it’s renowned worldwide for being the most trusted and respected international business networking platform for the cleaning and hygiene industry. Interclean Amsterdam has gone from strength to strength since it was first founded in 1967.
What makes this year’s edition different is that we’re really focusing on the future of the industry: what changes are coming and how will they impact your business? This is your exclusive opportunity to meet the right people and make the right connections, as you discover what innovations can help you evolve and grow your business. It’s also the perfect place to find out how the industry (and you) can make an impact with sustainable solutions that protect both people and the planet.
Networking and leisure
But it’s not all work and no play! Interclean Amsterdam 2024 offers an immersive experience, with not only ample chances to network and test-drive the latest innovations - but also the opportunity to have a great time. We’ll be introducing a special keynote speaker as the kick-off to the event, talking about transformation for the industry. And this year for the first time there will be a daily Interclean Social Club at three show-floor locations featuring live music, stand-up comedy, a pub quiz and more surprises at the event. Without giving too much away, we will also be unveiling a whole new look.
Join in discussion
What can visitors expect? We are exceptionally proud that Interclean Amsterdam 2024 will unite all the market leaders, role players, industry experts and exhibitors from across the world and from China. Join in discussions about cutting-edge topics such as: the value of data: what does it yield?; privacy and robotisation; energy transformation and real estate; staff, training and integration; cleaning and hygiene in the food service industry; greenwashing and certification; indoor air quality; and washroom hygiene.
Visitors can also look forward to attending the Healthcare Cleaning Forum (HCF). This conference - developed in cooperation with CleanHospitals - is designed as a platform for healthcare and cleaning experts as well as hospital managers, infection prevention specialists and facility managers. It provides in-depth insights into current trends and challenges affecting healthcare cleaning and hygiene in hospitals and long-term care institutions.
Another highlight is the Amsterdam Innovation Award which is awarded to the most innovative product, service or solution in the cleaning and hygiene industry in four categories - before the overall winner is announced.
This year we’ll be introducing a new category: the Cleaner’s Choice Award, where the finalists of the Dutch Cleaner of the Year competition will vote for the most impactful innovation that will help them the most in their work. All winners will be announced during the opening ceremony.
