Exhibitors and attendees alike repeatedly commented during this year’s ISSA/Interclean North America 2013 that it was “the best we’ve had in years.” This year's show attracted the most registrants in nearly a decade and set a record for the most new exhibitors, with 143 out of the 690 participating for the first time.

“This year has been one of our best ever,” said John Drengler, SCA Americas’ vice president of product and marketing for AfH Professional Hygiene–North America. “Engagement with our customers has been fantastic. ISSA/INTERCLEAN truly is one of our highlight events of the year.”

Alan Tomblin, sales manager - North America for Procter & Gamble Professional, was equally enthusiastic: “In the first day, alone, we did two-thirds of the business we conducted at last year’s event in total, and they were quality decision-makers with our existing customers and many potential customers “
