International Cleaning Week takes place from 23-29 March 2025. The week-long event hosted by ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry association, introduces innovative new resources to empower cleaning industry professionals globally.

For five consecutive years, ISSA has hosted this celebration at the end of March. This year, ISSA will expand engagement opportunities by featuring new resources designed to showcase the cleaning industry’s critical role in protecting public health and boosting economic impact.

“International Cleaning Week 2025 represents a transformative moment for our industry,” said ISSA executive director John Barrett. “The new Spotless Spaces Competition, enhanced partnership toolkit and comprehensive programming provide significant opportunities for our industry to demonstrate its value and impact.”

The Spotless Spaces Competition is an exclusive ISSA-member benefit, allowing cleaning and facilities teams to showcase their exceptional environments on a global stage. Members can nominate their spaces by 14 February to highlight their critical work in maintaining clean, safe, healthy facilities.

Another new engagement pathway is the Comprehensive Partnership Toolkit. This expanded resource features branded graphics, pre-written social media content and e-newsletter templates to help organisations maximise their International Cleaning Week participation.

“We are especially grateful to our International Cleaning Week supporting sponsors – Tork, an Essity Brand, and BradyPLUS – for their critical partnership in elevating our industry’s profile,” ISSA director of government affairs John Nothdurft says. “As our supporting sponsors for International Cleaning Week and presenting and supporting sponsors, respectively, for the 2025 ISSA Clean Advocacy Summit, these organisations demonstrate exceptional commitment to showcasing the value of professional cleaning on a global stage.”

As the culminating celebration of International Cleaning Week, ISSA will host the Clean Advocacy Summit from 31 March to 1 April in Washington, D.C. This premier Capitol Hill fly-in event empowers attendees with advocacy training and direct access to congressional delegations. The summit provides a unique opportunity for industry professionals to engage with policymakers and advance the interests of the cleaning and facility solutions industry.
