Industry Trends

Drop in Industrial Cleaning

Industrial garments and supplies accounts for two-thirds of total industry revenue, but the Textile Rental Services Association (TRSA) projects a drop in industrial-related cleaning. Jobs in the construction and manufacturing industry are shifting from permanent to temporary employees. With the exception of clean room and radioactive environments, temporary workers typically provide their own work garments. Fewer permanent workers could lead to a long-term decline in industrial cleaning service and supply.
