Stricter cleanliness specifications for parts and components, higher demands on the cost-effectiveness of cleaning and stricter requirements for the energy and resource efficiency of processes - industrial parts cleaning is facing a variety of challenges. Solutions for reconciling these sometimes contradictory goals will be presented at parts2clean 2025, the information and procurement platform with the world's most comprehensive range of industrial cleaning technology, which will be held at the Stuttgart Exhibition Centre (Germany) from October 7 to 9, 2025. The supporting program of the 21st leading international trade fair also offers an internationally sought-after transfer of knowledge on trends, innovations and benchmark applications.
Whether new mobility, electronics, semiconductor industry, sensor technology, optics, medical technology, pharmaceutical industry, aerospace or defense - in almost all industries, components and assemblies are becoming increasingly compact, complex and sensitive to contamination. This results in higher cleanliness requirements for component cleaning. Accordingly, adapted or optimized cleaning processes are required. At the same time, the cleanliness of the production environment is becoming increasingly important in order to minimize contamination and avoid cross-contamination and back-contamination. These aspects also play a key role when it comes to the cost-effectiveness of cleaning. In addition, reduced resource consumption and a reduced CO2 footprint are also becoming increasingly important core requirements in component cleaning.
Cleaning solutions that are in demand
"With the most up-to-date and comprehensive range of products and services in the field of industrial cleaning technology, parts2clean presents solutions that can effectively meet the increased demands on component cleaning from a technological, economic and ecological point of view," reports Ramtin Randjbar-Moshtaghin, Project Director at Deutsche Messe AG since June 1, 2025. The exhibitors' solution portfolio is optimally adapted to the respective production step, component geometry and material as well as the contamination and cleanliness requirements - from deburring to pre-cleaning and intermediate cleaning to final and high-purity cleaning.
Topics such as automation, digitalization and artificial intelligence (AI) also play a role. "The complete and innovative range of exhibits makes parts2clean the world's most important information and procurement platform for industrial cleaning technology. This can also be seen from the fact that the leading international trade fair attracts almost exclusively trade visitors (99%). Of these, around 80% come with investment intentions," adds Ramtin Randjbar-Moshtaghin.
Supporting program of parts2clean 2025 with p2c.EXPERTFORUM and award ceremony
The exhibitors' cross-industry, cross-technology and cross-material cleaning solutions will be complemented by an attractive supporting program. This includes the bilingual p2c.EXPERTFORUM, which is organized and held in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Cleaning Division and the German Industrial Parts Cleaning Association (FiT) and has established itself as a sought-after source of knowledge. "The topics of the simultaneously translated (German <> English) presentations provide information on current challenges, new developments and trends in industrial parts cleaning as well as benchmark applications and basic knowledge," explains Ramtin Randjbar-Moshtaghin. A highlight of the supporting program at this year's event awaits visitors at the FiT special show area: the presentation of the 4th FiT2clean Award. The award, which is endowed with 10,000 euros, honors outstanding achievements and innovative solutions in
industrial parts cleaning every year. (OM-6/25)
