THE GREEN CLEANING LEADERS ROUNDTABLE KUWAIT

EXCLUSIVE SPONSOR - DIVERSEY

ASSOCIATION PARTNER - MEFMA

Last Sunday, Clean Middle East organized its first-ever roundtable in Kuwait – The Green Cleaning Leaders’ Roundtable in association with Diversey, A Solenis Company – setting the stage for impactful conversation and industry transformation.

Experts from FM, hospitality, and healthcare sectors came together for insightful discussions, exchanging expertise and innovative solutions to shape the future of green cleaning in the region.

Key Insights from the Discussion

AI in Cleaning :
While AI enhances efficiency, its high resource consumption and the impact of 8,000+ AI centers worldwide raise sustainability concerns.

Kuwait’s Sustainability Journey:
Kuwait started late on sustainability, but progress is underway—it’s never too late to build a greener future.

Clear Financial Benefits:
Businesses and consumers adopt sustainability more readily when the financial benefits are evident.

The Roundtable highlighted Kuwait’s growing commitment to sustainability. While challenges like AI’s resource consumption and the need for financial incentives remain, experts shared practical solutions to accelerate progress. With industry leaders driving change, a greener future is within reach.
