FacilityApps and Cleaning Workx Join Forces for Further Growth

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

Digitalization continues to accelerate in the cleaning industry

The partnership comes at a time when the cleaning industry is facing major challenges. Labor shortages, an aging workforce in management and training roles, diverse nationalities combined with language and cultural challenges, rising costs, and increasing quality requirements all make digitalization essential. By combining their areas of expertise, these Dutch software companies are developing practical solutions that directly support the operational reality of cleaning organizations.

“We see that many Dutch cleaning companies have already taken their first steps in digitalization,” says Dirk Tuip, CEO of FacilityApps. “But there is still a lot to gain, especially with new technology such as AI, Virtual Reality and data-driven cleaning. This collaboration with Cleaning Workx brings us even closer to where the work is actually done — the cleaner — and that’s where we believe the biggest improvements can be made.”

Benefits of VR training

• Realistic and interactive training experiences for cleaners
• Fun, safe, efficient and scalable learning
• Certification options included
• Independent of language, location and time
• Focused on improving quality, safety and job satisfaction

From startup to scale-up

Wieland Hendriksen, CEO of Cleaning Workx: “Every month, the number of cleaners being trained or retrained through Virtual Reality continues to grow, along with the number of interested companies — many of whom find us through word of mouth. This partnership with FacilityApps is an important milestone that accelerates the growth of our company. We have always focused on providing the most innovative Virtual Reality training solutions, and that will remain the case. But with FacilityApps, our product, our team and our growth receive a boost we could only dream of.”

“Together, we create a synergy that benefits the entire cleaning market and raises the standard of training and quality within the sector,” Hendriksen adds. “The cleaning industry is ready for innovation. With this collaboration, we aim to bring Dutch innovation to the next level, both in the Netherlands and abroad. Our combined knowledge and experience give us a strong foundation to drive the sector forward.”
