Swiss Robotics in Cleaning: A Small Country with Big Impact

For a country of just over nine million people, Switzerland plays a disproportionately large role in the global cleaning robotics market. Building on a long-standing reputation for precision engineering and applied research, Swiss companies have become key innovators in professional cleaning automation.

Among the most prominent players are Cleanfix, KEMARO, Wetrok, and the emerging startup Loki Robotics, which together cover applications ranging from airports and warehouses to office buildings and hygiene-sensitive environments.

Cleanfix: Autonomous Scrubber-Dryers and Vacuum Robots

Cleanfix Reinigungssysteme AG has decades of experience in professional cleaning machines and a strong robotics line under Cleanfix Robotics. Cleanfix focuses on wet floor cleaning and autonomous vacuuming in commercial and industrial environments, powered by robust navigation including BlueBotics ANT®.

Product Range

• S170 Navi – Compact autonomous dry vacuum robot for offices and corridors

• RA660 Navi M – Professional scrubber-dryer robot for medium-sized areas.

• RA660 Navi XL – Larger model for expansive sites such as malls, warehouses, and airports.

KEMARO: Industrial Dry-Cleaning Robots for Heavy-Duty Environments

KEMARO AG, founded in 2016, specialises in waterless industrial dry cleaning. Its robots are designed for warehouses and production facilities where dust, debris and demanding conditions are the norm.

Product Range

Centred on the K900 platform, available in several variants:

• K900 Smart – Standard autonomous industrial sweeper.

• K900 ECO – Optimised for energy efficiency.

• K900 TOP – High-performance variant.

• K900 Wet Environment – For areas exposed to occasional moisture.

• K900 AGV – Designed for integration with intralogistics systems.

Wetrok: A Compact Hybrid Approach

Wetrok, a long-established Swiss cleaning-technology provider, offers a single but distinctive robotic product: Robomatic Marvin.

Product Range (Shortened)

• Robomatic Marvin – A hybrid scrubber-dryer/robot that can be driven manually or operate autonomously. It is designed for offices, retail, and healthcare settings, and integrates into Wetrok’s broader ecosystem of cleaning equipment and services.

Wetrok’s approach focuses on simplicity and hybrid flexibility, rather than a wide robot lineup.

Loki Robotics: Autonomous Cleaning for Hygiene-Sensitive Spaces

Loki Robotics, a Zürich-based startup founded in 2025, is redefining cleaning automation for restrooms, office kitchens, and high-contact environments. In contrast to traditional floor robots, Loki is engineered for human-like cleaning tasks, including:

• Tool changes

• Applying cleaning agents

• Complex, contact-rich cleaning actions

Product / Offering

• Loki Robot – An advanced autonomous (or semi-autonomous in early deployments) cleaning robot for sanitation-heavy indoor environments.

• Service Model – Early-stage deployments likely follow a pilot or subscription model, with strong emphasis on continuous learning supported by teleoperation.

Loki aims to automate the cleaning tasks that have traditionally been considered “too complex” for robots.
