Interclean Amsterdam 2022 Celebrates Being Able to Meet Again with a Four-Day Reunion

Last Friday Interclean Amsterdam came to an end after four sun-drenched days. The sun was shining outside, but above all inside the halls as well, where everyone made the most of being able to meet each other in person again after a four-year break. An international ensemble of 669 exhibitors and 25886 visitors from 125 countries came together at RAI Amsterdam. Apart from the focus on a personal reunion, there were plenty of opportunities to do business, experience product innovations and attend the extensive knowledge programme. Particular attention was paid to young talent, cleaning in the healthcare sector and updates for Facility Managers.

Anyone who wishes to relive the experience can do so during the coming month by re-watching various keynote speaker sessions via Clean Connect. Looking ahead, Interclean Amsterdam 2024 is going to take place from 14 to 17 May 2024.

In the words of Robert Stelling (Director Interclean Global Events), "We can look back on four very successful days, with a positive vibe in the exhibition halls. Everyone was extremely happy to finally meet each other again in person. We received many positive responses, from business contacts who were pleasantly surprised about the international nature of the exhibition, exhibitors who were able to make many more new contacts or close new orders and speakers who talked enthusiastically about the large audiences and their willingness to interact. This week has demonstrated that the power of personal interaction is extremely valuable.

I am also proud of the Healthcare Cleaning Forum where we bridged the gap between infection prevention and cleaning. It was also fantastic to see how our sector is dealing with sustainability. On top of all that we learned that robotisation has now really taken off. We cannot wait until 2024!'
