Anticipation builds for ISSA/INTERCLEAN
Markus Asch, vice chairman of the management board at cleaning equipment manufacturer Kärcher and president of EUnited Cleaning, writes his latest blog for the ECJ website. He looks forward to the ISSA/INTERCLEAN Amsterdam exhibition next month.

It might be a coincidence - or perhaps not - that ISSA/INTERCLEAN in Amsterdam, one of the most important events in our industry, takes place precisely at this time. The symbolism could not be more appropriate: an industry whose core task is to make things look (like) new again meets at a time when nature is preparing to renew itself and exchanges information about new products.
