FacilityApps and Cleaning Workx join forces for further growth

Purmerend, November 13, 2025 - FacilityApps, the leading developer of digital solutions for cleaning companies, today announces a strategic collaboration in the form of a joint venture with Cleaning Workx, a specialist in Virtual Reality training for cleaners. This joining of forces enables both companies to expand their services in the Netherlands and internationally and to offer the most innovative solutions for the cleaning industry.

Digitization continues to advance in cleaning

The collaboration between FacilityApps and Cleaning Workx comes at a time when the cleaning industry is facing major challenges. Staff shortages, aging managers and trainers, diverse nationalities and the challenges of language and culture, rising costs and increasing quality requirements make digitalization indispensable. By combining both areas of expertise, these Dutch software companies develop practical solutions that respond directly to the daily reality of cleaning companies.

"We see that many Dutch cleaning companies have already taken the first steps in the field of digitalization," says Dirk Tuip, CEO of FacilityApps. "However, there is still a lot of room for improvement, especially through new technology such as AI, Virtual Reality and data-driven cleaning. This collaboration with Cleaning Workx brings us even more to where the work is really done and where we believe there is still a lot to gain: the cleaner himself.”

Benefits of VR Training

Cleaning Workx offers realistic and interactive training that allows cleaners to be trained and certified in a fun, safe, efficient and scalable way. The training courses are language independent, location independent, time independent and aimed at improving quality, safety and job satisfaction within the cleaning sector.

From startup to scale-up

Wieland Hendriksen, CEO of Cleaning Workx: “Every month the number of cleaners trained or retrained via Virtual Reality grows, as does the number of interested companies, who often come through word of mouth. Joining forces with FacilityApps is a great milestone that accelerates our company. We were already focused on delivering the most innovative training solution via Virtual Reality and that remains the case. But with FacilityApps our product, our team and our growth get a boost that we could only dream of.

Together we create a synergy that benefits the entire cleaning market and sets the standard for itquality and trainingwithin the sector.”

"The cleaning industry is ready for innovation," Hendriksen emphasizes. "With this collaboration, we want to further grow Dutch innovation, both in the Netherlands and abroad. Our joint knowledge and experience give us a solid foundation to help the sector move forward."
