We’ve created a list of some of the top cleaning innovations that we’re excited about.
Technology is rapidly improving across all industries, and commercial cleaning is no different. We’ve seen many exciting new technology releases this year, and will only continue to see improvements in the commercial cleaning and janitorial industry. Here are some of our top commercial cleaning innovations for 2025 that we’re excited about. Keep an eye on these trends and reach out to our team with any questions on how they may best be implemented in your organization.
New Technology
As we’re looking to the future, AR (augmented reality) may sound familiar. AR is similar to VR (virtual reality) but incorporates images and real-time input from the world around us. Inspire AR training is the new wave of cleaning; it uses images or videos from the real world and gives helpful suggestions, safety data sheets, and notes on what surfaces need to be cleaned or sanitized and which products are appropriate to use. This is a great training tool or a refresher for your team, and the future applications and possibilities are endless.
Another new technology is the Taqt service request and validation device. The panel can serve a variety of functions, like letting guests make cleaning or janitorial requests that update the cleaning team, showing when the last service of the area occurred, and removing the hassle and waste of paper logs. This is certainly a trend to watch in 2025, and the possibilities for growth and expansion are significant.
Sustainability
Sustainability and green cleaning have certainly been a focus in 2024, but with exciting new developments and certifications, we’re hoping to see the trend continue into 2025. The ISSA CIMS-GB Advanced by GBAC Certification and ISSA Sustainability Certification are two great ways that many more businesses can become LEED accredited; KleenMark can help with that, too! Becoming green certified is important to many customers, and reaching these awards can help them feel more confident in the green clean they’re receiving.
Cleanliness Tests
You may think your facilities are clean, but how can you check and know for sure? Using the Kikkoman A3 Lumitester Smart is a great way to see how deep of a clean your team or provider is delivering. The innovative tester uses an advanced ATP+AMP+ADP (A3) method to measure beyond just ATP to provide a true picture of cleanliness. Especially for industries like healthcare, food manufacturing, and commercial office space, this testing device can help verify that your facility is actually clean and can help prepare you to successfully pass third-party audits. We’re excited to see how this technology expands in 2025 and beyond.
Cobotics
Cobotics is an exciting, fast-growing field that promises huge advancements in 2025 and the future. They are a great way to reallocate resources away from repetitive cleaning tasks, improve coverage area, and reduce the costs associated with a cleaning team. Cobotics are cutting-edge and can efficiently perform repetitive tasks like floor scrubbing and vacuuming. We expect to see even more possibilities in cleaning robotics in the future. Contact our team to discuss whether cobotics might be a good fit for your facility.
These are just a few highlights of some commercial cleaning innovations for 2025 that we’re excited to see improve and evolve even further. If you have any questions about how to implement these products, or if you’re interested in seeing them work today, reach out to our expert team.
