With 2025 fast approaching, now is the perfect time to evaluate whether your office is up to date with the most recent office cleaning trends. The commercial cleaning industry is constantly evolving, with new technologies being introduced, economic challenges and updated government guidelines shaping the landscape. Staying ahead of these changes is crucial to ensuring your business remains compliant, competitive and reputable.
Staying up to date ensures that your company is seen as a leader within its sector. You must ensure your workspace is compliant with legal regulations, channels a competitive edge and promotes a clean, safe environment to protect your brand’s reputation.
Here are some of our office cleaning trend predictions for 2025.
Eco-Friendly Solutions
Sustainability is becoming increasingly important as the years go on and research improves. By 2025, eco-friendly cleaning solutions are set to heavily influence the industry due to consumer awareness and stricter regulations. It is important when partnering with a cleaning provider to ensure they have or are working on a closed-loop cleaning system.
We are set to have a closed-loop system in place very soon which solely incorporates eco-friendly cleaning products. Using eco-friendly cleaning products will reduce the amount of toxins your employees are exposed to, improve your supply chain and reduce the level of waste produced in your office.
Machinery & Equipment
Cleaning technology is continuing to evolve, with new innovative machines and equipment. From equipment equipped with Internet of Things (IoT) capabilities to smarter, more efficient machinery, these new technologies have become an essential in today’s commercial cleaning operations.
As Artificial Intelligence (AI) is set to continue to progress in 2025, adopting the use of these technologies in your office spaces offers numerous benefits:
Increased Efficiency: Allowing space for new cleaning technology can allow operatives to work more efficiently. Operatives can dedicate more time to tasks that require human interaction without increasing manpower.
Cost Savings: Although these technologies require upfront investment, there will be savings on labour in the long-term.
Provide Data-Driven Decision-Making: AI-powered technologies can provide valuable insight into cleaning patterns, consumer preferences and facility usage. By analysing this data, you can make informed decisions on your cleaning strategy and tailor your hygiene regime to meet your specific needs.
Improved Environmental Impact: Smart technologies can reduce the amount of waste produced across your offices through reduced consumption, scheduling optimisation and smart waste management.
Waste Solutions
Recent government announcements, such as the ‘Simpler Recycling’ initiative, will significantly impact waste management practices. The latest announcement means all businesses in England with 10 or more full-time employees must comply with several key requirements, as outlined in the Recycling Consistency consultation.
We have already introduced innovative waste solutions to many of our clients. Our bespoke solutions can be adapted to suit your office requirements and improve your waste management system. Our waste solutions focus on efficient, data-driven practices to help you meet your ESG goals and achieve a circular economy.
Sustainability Certification
Businesses are being held more and more accountable for their environmental impact, not only as a result of new environmental guidelines being put in place but also due to client expectations. Failing to improve your sustainability efforts may cause your company to lose out on business.
There are certifications we can follow to better our sustainability efforts, such as ISO certifications. By obtaining certifications like these, not only will you enhance your company’s reputation, but also ensure your company is complaint with the latest environmental regulations.
Employee Training and Wellbeing
Research conducted by Saïd Business School found that employee wellbeing is crucial to workplace performance. These findings demonstrate just how important it is to improve staff wellbeing through training, packages and benefits.
With commercial cleaning becoming more advanced, office employees are paying more interest as to what is being used in their workplace. Hosting in-depth training around what equipment is used in your office ensures your employees feel that they are involved. This training is also important to ensure any cleaning technology that is kept on site is not damaged by employees.
Research shows that in 2025 there will be a rise in the demand of hybrid working, with the suggestion that providing this option to employees can improve wellbeing. As a result, your office may be subject to fluctuating occupancy levels. In response to this, we offer flexible, on-demand cleaning services to reduce costs while optimising best hygiene practices.
Partnering with a forward-thinking cleaning provider and implementing these practices will allow your business to foster a clean, safe and productive workplace. Whether it’s embracing eco-friendly solutions, leveraging innovative cleaning technology or prioritising employee wellbeing, these trends provide an opportunity to enhance your office environment.
