Kimberly-Clark Professional partnered with The British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc) who oversaw the independent judging.
Stan Atkins, CEO at The British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICSc) added: “Whilst we congratulate our winners, all finalists must be applauded for the highest standard of entries to date. In some categories judging was very close, and so for the first time we have also presented some well-deserved highly commended awards. What stood out to the judges this year is that those companies who are helping to raise standards in the industry are those that are most committed to investment and training.”
