Last week, members of the HW Facilities team had the pleasure of attending The Cleaning Show. An important event that brings together suppliers, innovators, and leaders from across the cleaning and facilities management sector. The show provided the perfect opportunity for us to explore new ideas, understand emerging technologies and see first-hand new products shaping our industry.

Exploring New Equipment and Innovation

One of the highlights of the day was the chance to get hands-on with new equipment and solutions. Seeing new products up close helps us assess how they can support our operational teams and enhance the service we deliver to our clients.

As a business committed to continuous improvement, staying informed about innovation is essential. Events like The Cleaning Show ensure we remained aligned with industry progress and continue to deliver the high standards our customers expect.

Technology That Makes a Difference

Technology continues to play an increasingly important role in facilities management, and this year’s show provided plenty of examples. We were able to explore technology-based innovations aimed at:

• Supporting sustainability goals
• Enhancing training opportunities
• Providing cleaning operatives with simple, effective digital tools.

Connecting with Partners Across the Sector

The event also gave us the chance to catch up with partners, peers, and friends from across the industry. Building and maintaining strong relationships is central to how we operate at HW Facilities. Having time for face‑to‑face conversations remains invaluable for sharing experiences and exploring new opportunities.

Tom Marriott, Managing Director at HW Facilities, shared his thoughts on the event:

“The Cleaning Show is always a valuable opportunity for us to gather new ideas and challenge how we deliver our services. It’s inspiring to see the ongoing technological development in the sector, and it reinforces our commitment to investing in tools and technology that genuinely support our people and benefit our clients. We left Manchester with plenty of ideas that we’re excited to explore.”

Looking Ahead to Interclean Amsterdam

Next on our agenda is Interclean Amsterdam, where we’re looking forward to discovering even more forward‑thinking solutions and continuing our commitment to exceeding client expectations.
