2-3 March 2027
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Organised by Smithers, Cleaning Products Europe brings together the full cleaning products industry to explore the challenges, technologies and opportunities shaping its future.
Next taking place on 2-3 March 2027 in Amsterdam, the conference connects senior professionals from across the complete value chain — including cleaning product manufacturers, chemical and ingredient suppliers, formulators, technology and solution providers, packaging specialists, retailers, regulators, associations, market experts and academia.
A defining principle of Cleaning Products Europe is that progress does not come from looking at one part of the industry, one technology or one approach in isolation. The conference creates a neutral forum in which conventional chemistry, bio-based and renewable solutions, new technologies, established ingredients and emerging alternatives can all be examined on their merits.
