Kimberly-Clark Professional celebrates their history of innovation at The Cleaning Show London 2025

Hundreds of great conversations took place on Kimberly-Clark’s stand at the Cleaning Show London 2025, which will continue beyond the event. Visitors experienced a trip through time with Kimberly-Clark Professional beginning with its heritage of invention.

Under its core purpose ‘Better Care for a Better World’, visitors went on a journey from the invention of the first rolled toilet paper by Scott in 1918, the fascinating innovation of Kleenex tissues in 1924, right up to its 2025 launch of Onvation smart washroom technology.

The leading global provider of hygiene, safety and productivity solutions shared its industry mission to make a positive impact on the world by investing and innovating to keep people healthy, safe and sustainable. From its legacy of 153 years of category building innovation and care, Kimberly-Clark announced that for the first time the Andrex brand is available to its professional customers.

Craig Bowman, Commercial Director, Professional UK IFP, said: “Thank you to everyone who visited us at the Cleaning Show London 2025. It was a pleasure to join our guests in a look back at some of the inventions that were category forming for the global cleaning and hygiene sector including Kleenex tissues, Kotex sanitary products and Scott toilet tissue.”

The event saw the UK introduction of Onvation with visitors discovering how this connected software solution for smart washrooms can transform facilities management and the efficiency of cleaning operations.

Kimberly-Clark also showcased the latest from the touchless ICON dispenser collection, shared news from the award-winning hand towel recycling RightCycle Programme, plus the sustainable innovation from its wiping and washroom brands Kleenex, Scott and WypAll.
