Registration is now open for the second summit hosted by the American Cleaning Institute (ACI) and Good Housekeeping magazine: Discover Cleaning 2021: Cleaning is Caring.
This free, virtual event takes place Wednesday, October 27 at 1 p.m. ET. The 2021 summit is designed to address the cleaning concerns of today’s time-pressed consumers and highlight the latest advancements in the world of clean.
As the nation continues to grapple with the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, while also entering into what experts are warning as a difficult cold and flu season this winter, the Discover Cleaning Summit comes at a crucial time to focus on cleaning and hygiene habits directly tied to American’s health. Since the pandemic emerged over a year ago, there has been a documented shift in the perceptions and motivations behind why consumers clean, with cleaning habits now considered as a primary role in caring for the health and safety of loved ones. In fact, a survey conducted by ACI found that 70% of Americans view cleaning as a way to ensure the health and safety of themselves and their families, a significant change from 2018 when only 7% of Americans reported cleaning as a way to prevent the spread of germs and illness.
Consumers, manufacturers, retailers, journalists and anyone interested in cleaning are invited to attend educational and informative discussions between leading industry experts, researchers, community leaders and more. Notable topics and panels include:
- Caring for Our Health: Cleaning Still Matters
- Caring for Our Families: Why Cleaning Is a Family Affair
- Caring for Our Communities: Cleaning Our Way Back to School, Work & Play
- Caring for Our World: Cleaning for Greener Future
