ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry association, is pleased to recognize the winners of the 2016 ISSA Innovation Award Program. The winners were announced during the ISSA Innovation Awards Ceremony, which was held October 28, during ISSA/INTERCLEAN North America 2016.
This year’s ISSA Innovation Award Program featured more than 50 products and services from cleaning manufacturers and service providers. Participants were entered into one of five categories: Cleaning Agents, Dispensers, Equipment, Services & Technology, and Supplies & Accessories.
Two Ways to Vote
Individuals representing distributors, wholesalers, and facility service providers throughout the industry readily reviewed what was cutting-edge in clean and placed their votes at www.issa.com/vote between August 1 and October 21 to determine the online category winners.
During ISSA/INTERCLEAN North America 2016 in Chicago, IL, October 25-28, exhibiting entries were on display in the show’s Innovation Showcase area. After viewing the entries, attendees voted to determine Visitors’ Choice award winners. In addition, Silicon Valley icon Steve Wozniak named the winner of the overall ISSA Innovation of the Year Award.
“What a fantastic showing at the Innovation Award Showcase this year,” said ISSA Digital Media Director Lou Centrella. “There was a lot of buzz about all the exciting products, and I’m looking forward to what 2017 has in store. A big thank you to everyone who participated.”
