The CMS Purus Innovation Award (PIA) 2025 recognises outstanding innovations in the cleaning industry, such as sustainable cleaning agents, AI-supported assistance systems and energy-efficient machines. The award is presented by CMS Berlin, the leading trade fair for cleaning and hygiene, which will take place for the twelfth time at the Berlin Exhibition Centre from 23 to 26 September 2025. All exhibitors and co-exhibitors at CMS Berlin 2025 can now apply for the prestigious industry award. The award will be presented in six categories: Cleaning Machines, Robotics/AI, Equipment, Washroom Hygiene, Digital Tools and Systems and Cleaning Agents. A new category is Robotics/AI, which recognises the increasing use of intelligent technologies in professional cleaning.

An eight-member jury of recognised industry experts will evaluate the entries and nominate the finalists, who will be announced in July. The award ceremony will take place during the CMS Exhibitor Evening on 23 September 2025. New to the jury this year is Gerhard Komarek, Federal Guild Master of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce for Monument, Facade and Building Cleaners; Managing Director of Sigron Handels- & SchulungsgmbH Austria. He has a wide range of expertise in the industry and adds an Austrian perspective to the wide-ranging expertise of the jury.
