The Cleaning Show 2025 returns to the ExceL, London, promising to be even bigger and better than last year’s show in the capital.
As well as featuring more exhibitors than the 2023 show and more floor space, the show, which runs from 18-20 March, boasts a range of new 
features.
With more than 7,000 attendees from across the industry expected, visitors will have the opportunity to meet key suppliers, discover the latest products and services, learn from a host of industry experts and network with senior specialists from across the sector.
It is the premier trade event for the cleaning and hygiene industry and is co-produced by the British Cleaning Council (BCC) and Quartz Business Media.

Delia will also unveil a key industry document, the BCC’s 2025 research report on the cleaning, hygiene and waste sector, which will be packed with the latest facts and figures about the industry, and give an update on the BCC’s activities over the last year.
Delia said: “The Cleaning Show is a fabulous showcase for one of the UK’s biggest and most important sectors and the highlight of the cleaning and hygiene industry’s calendar.
“The enthusiasm for this year’s show has been incredible and it promises to be one of the best in the history of the event.”
As always, the conference programme will be a key attraction, offering a series of engaging panel sessions over three days, featuring industry experts.
