Businesses and organisations operating throughout the industry enter their innovative products, services and initiatives. Preceding to the Innovation Showcase, we hold an Innovator's Pitch with a panel of leading industry experts who review and interview all entrants and select those to be exhibited at the Innovation Showcase itself.
Not only will our Innovation Showcase event show the selected innovators but will also feature a robotics demonstration from CSSA Member specialists in the Robotics Sector. Food and beverages will be free to all attendees.

Whether you’re an owner of a commercial or industrial cleaning company the event is the perfect opportunity to see ways to optimize your process; increase productivity, improve quality, boost profitability and meet demands for a better environment. The event not only demonstrates that the Cleaning Industry is a driving force for the evolution in the cleaning field, but has the potential to reinvent a wide range of industries via serving social and environmental needs.

Innovative cleaning processes are fundamentally altering the way business owners manage their companies, and how employees conduct their day-to-day activities.
