From 19 to 22 September 2023 the cleaning industry is coming together live again at CMS Berlin, Europe’s leading trade fair for the cleaning and hygiene market. For CMS, the year has begun under new project management. After 14 years in her post, Heike Hemmer is retiring and handing over project management to Ruth Senitz.

Matthias Steckmann, director of Mobility & Services, praised the former’s achievements: ”Together with BIV, VDMA and IHO, the professional organisations sponsoring the event, Heike Hemmer continued to successfully develop CMS Berlin as a showcase for innovation and driving force of the cleaning industry. This industry platform is a firm fixture on the cleaning sector’s calendar of events.”

In appointing Ruth Senitz, CMS has secured an experienced project manager with 20 years of expertise in events gained at Messe Düsseldorf and Messe Berlin. For 14 years Senitz expanded IFA, the Leading Trade Fair for Consumer Electronics and Home Appliances, making it an international event. ”I greatly look forward to continuing to develop and expand CMS Berlin together with our strong, outstanding team. With four million employees in Europe, the cleaning industry is an important branch of industry and at the same time is undergoing a fascinating transformation. Important future topics such as sustainability, automation and the skills shortage demand new solutions“, said Senitz, who looks forward to the challenges ahead.

Witness innovations live

At this year’s CMS Berlin there is an even greater focus on innovations and face-to-face meetings on specialist topics. Numerous formats await trade visitors and exhibitors, including a new Speakers‘ Corner, an Innovation Stage, special displays, live shows and the CMS Practical Forum. The presentation of the Purus Innovation Award 2023 by a jury of experts is a regular event at the fair. Applications for the competition can be made on the CMS website as of March. The Mobility Cleaning Circle, an exclusive networking event featuring high-profile representatives of the mobility and cleaning industries, is also taking place again.

Supporting startups and newcomers

CMS Berlin offers startups an opportunity to kickstart their business. The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) is supporting a combined stand for domestic startups and newcomers where, on their own display area, they can present their products and business ideas. Other international startups and newcomers will be displaying their innovations nearby.
