Cleaning Industry Network Withdraws Support of Moscow Trade Show

March 3, 2022

As countries around the world impose sanctions against Russia in protest of its invasion of Ukraine, organizations and businesses are disassociating themselves from Russia as well. The cleaning industry is no exception.

The ISSA PULIRE NETWORK (IPN) has withdrawn its participation and support of the CleanExpo Moscow trade show, scheduled to take place November 22-24, 2022, in Moscow, Russia.

IPN, which was founded by ISSA and Italian trade association Afidamp, requested that show organizer MVK (International Exhibition Company) remove the PULIRE brand and logo from all literature and materials related to the CleanExpo Moscow trade show.

“ISSA and IPN cannot proceed with the CleanExpo Moscow project given what is happening between Russia and Ukraine,” said IPN CEO Toni D’andrea. “We sincerely hope for a rapid and peaceful resolution of the conflict and that we may resume our working relationship with the Moscow event in the future.”
