Clean India Show & Laundrex India 2025 Highlight AI & Sustainability
The Clean India Show, co-located with Laundrex India, concluded on a high note in Mumbai, reinforcing its position as India’s leading integrated platform for cleaning, hygiene, linen care and industrial cleaning solutions.

Organised jointly by Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India and Virtual Info Systems (VIS Group), the show attracted 8,762 visitors from 266 Indian cities, along with international attendees from 18 countries. A strong participation from Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities highlighted the growing nationwide demand for advanced cleaning and hygiene technologies.
The exhibition floor featured cutting-edge solutions across robotic and mechanised cleaning systems, measurable air-quality monitoring, facility management software, automation tools, green cleaning chemicals, waterless sanitation technologies, surface maintenance systems, city cleaning solutions, waste management technologies, vehicle care products, and advanced laundry and dry-cleaning equipment.

The event drew significant participation from Indian Railways, urban local bodies (ULBs), state departments, smart city authorities, urban planners, town planners and research organisations. Their engagement across conferences and exhibition halls contributed to a vibrant and solution-driven atmosphere throughout the event.
This edition introduced two focused zones—the Smart City Pavilion and the Start-up Pavilion—which highlighted innovations in urban sanitation, waste management, drones, advanced chemicals, smart cleaning tools and sustainable technologies. These pavilions effectively bridged urban planning with next-generation cleaning and hygiene solutions.
