June 17, 2026 — ISSA, The Association for Cleaning and Facility Solutions, and the National Organization of Remediators and Mold Inspectors (NORMI) recently signed a renewed and expanded alliance agreement. This agreement expands the formal alliance between the two organizations that began in 2018.
The shared goal of the two organizations is to promote the understanding that healthy indoor environments require both professional cleaning and proper mold inspection and remediation. This strengthened alliance will accomplish this by increased legislative and regulatory advocacy and by bolstering public awareness for best practices and an integrated approach to indoor environmental health rather than treating cleaning and remediation as separate disciplines.
This next phase of this alliance focuses on leveraging the expertise of both organizations for the mutual benefit of their respective member bases, with a focus on:
- Education and training – Shared access to each organizations cleaning and mold remediation courses, certifications, and joint educational opportunities.
- Integrated membership value – A structured alliance option allowing members of each organization to access select benefits from the other.
- Media and branding – Cleanfax will be designated as the official publication for NORMI members, with coordinated editorial collaboration and alliance visibility.
- Advocacy – Coordinated government and regulatory engagement on issues impacting cleaning, mold remediation and indoor environmental health.
Additionally, this agreement will leverage each organization’s technical expertise, training, certifications and publications while offering the option for an ISSA/NORMI combo membership.
Member value highlights:
- ISSA members gain access to NORMI technical bulletins on mold and member pricing for mold assessment and remediation education, events and certifications.
- NORMI members receive Cleanfax as part of their membership; digital access to select ISSA publications and communities; access to the ISSA Show North America show floor; and member pricing on ISSA education, events and certifications.
