Autonomous and robotic floor scrubbers for commercial facilities

Six scrubber dryers from Sparkoz and PUDU that scrub and dry hard floors on their own, from the compact Sparkoz TN10-PRO at $11,750 to the large BG1 Pro, with published MSRPs, financing, and a free demo at your site. You may also see one called an automatic floor scrubber or a commercial floor scrubber robot.

What an autonomous floor scrubber does (and how it differs from a robot vacuum or sweeper)

An autonomous floor scrubber is a robot that scrubs and dries hard floors on its own. It follows a mapped route, puts down clean water from one tank, scrubs the floor, and recovers the dirty water into a second tank, so the floor is left clean rather than wet. When the job is done it heads back to its dock. With the optional workstation, the Sparkoz TN10-PRO and TN70-PRO refill and drain their tanks on their own; with the optional docking station, the CC1 and CC1 Pro recharge, refill, and drain on their own, and the BG1 and BG1 Pro support unattended operation.

A robot vacuum or sweeper picks up dust and debris from dry floors but does not wash them. If your floors need water and a scrub, you want a scrubber dryer. The Sparkoz TN10-PRO sweeps, scrubs and vacuums in one pass, and the CC1 and CC1 Pro each sweep, vacuum, dust mop, and scrub in a single machine. If you want one autonomous floor cleaning robot that handles both dry and wet work, start there.

Which scrubber fits your square footage

Start with how much floor you need to clean and how long you have to clean it. The BG1 and BG1 Pro are listed at up to 2,000 m² an hour of covered cleaning, against 700 to 1,000 square meters an hour for the CC1 and CC1 Pro, and their 75 L clean water tanks mean fewer refill stops on long runs. That makes the BG1 family the fit for the largest open floors, and the BG1 Pro adds 3D LiDAR and a faster cruise speed for parking structures and the highest traffic areas.

Then check the layout. The CC1 and CC1 Pro need 70 cm of path clearance and weigh 75 kg, so they suit tighter aisles, corridors, and mixed spaces, and the CC1 Pro also vacuums carpet. The BG1 and BG1 Pro need 85 cm. Sites with both wide open floor and tight back of house often pair a BG1 for the open floor with a CC1 Pro for the tighter areas. Answer a few questions in the robot finder for a starting recommendation.

Robot scrubber vs ride-on vs walk-behind

Ride-on and walk-behind scrubbers both need a person at the controls for the whole job. A ride-on covers large open floors quickly, but it only runs while someone is driving it. An autonomous floor scrubber runs its mapped route on a schedule, so the cleaning window no longer ties up a member of staff for the entire run. Our guide to choosing a commercial cleaning robot covers when each one makes sense.

You do not have to give up manual control entirely. The BG1 and BG1 Pro include a ride on mode that lets staff drive the machine for setup, repositioning, or quick moves between distant areas. For small, greasy, or slippery spots such as kitchens, restrooms, and entryways, the PUDU SH1 is an operator guided upright scrubber dryer that scrubs and dries in a single pass, bridging the deep clean of a walk behind scrubber with the ease of a mop.

Price and financing

Looking for a floor scrubber robot, or a robot floor scrubber for sale? At published manufacturer MSRP, the Sparkoz TN10-PRO is $11,750 and the Sparkoz TN70-PRO is $32,350 with the disc brush or $33,350 with the cylindrical brush. The CC1 is $22,000, the CC1 Pro is $24,000, the BG1 is $36,999, and the BG1 Pro is $39,000. Prices are the published MSRP and do not include installation or accessories. Installation is quoted for your site, and docking stations, such as the CC1 Pro self-cleaning dock, are listed on our accessories page. Every price is on our robot pricing page.

Most clients finance. You can use your own bank or a third party lender, Tovrana prepares the complete package they need to review, and a typical lender decision takes 5 to 10 business days. The lender funds the full package on verified installation, and you own the robot from day one. Every scrubber here can also be leased on a fixed monthly payment over 24 to 63 months, with other lengths on request. See how financing works or how robot leasing works.

Where autonomous scrubbers work

Autonomous scrubbers earn their place on large, routine hard floors that have to be cleaned every day. Janitorial robots like these work in supermarkets, in logistics and warehousing facilities with wide open floors, and in airports and transit concourses. The compact CC1 and CC1 Pro also suit the corridors and mixed floors of schools and universities and healthcare buildings.
