Announcing the launch of the 2009/2010 Building Cleanability Awards

The 2009/2010 Building Cleanability Awards scheme is under way and will be officially ‘launched’ on 13th July.

Introduced in 1995, the Awards scheme is designed to promote an increased awareness of the cleaning needs and cleanability issues relevant to all commercial and public buildings, at all stages of design, construction and operational management.

Seven biennial schemes have been held since 1995 and a total of 325 buildings of all descriptions and from all parts of the UK, have so far been assessed against a wide range of assessment criteria (link to criteria).

The BCA are promoted by the cleaning industry Livery Company, The Worshipful Company of Environmental Cleaners, in partnership with The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and The Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT).

The British Cleaning Council (BCC) is Patron of the 2009/2010 Award scheme with sponsorship support provided by ISS UK Ltd, Mayflower Washroom Solutions and Selden Research. Additional Sponsors are urgently required to help cover the operating costs of this year’s scheme. (link to sponsorship documents).

Building nominations can be submitted from now until the end of December 2009 with assessment visits taking place between November 2009 and March 2010.

Each building nominated will receive a detailed assessment for cleanability and the 2009/2010 Awards scheme will conclude with a prestigious Awards Presentation Luncheon on Monday 12th July 2010 in London’s famous Guildhall. Make a note of the date now!
