Autonomous Floor Cleaning
Autonomous floor cleaning that survives contact with a real building
Hard-floor cleaning is the most automatable task in most facilities and the most frequently mis-specified. The machine is rarely the problem; the floor transitions, the congestion at 6pm and the person expected to empty the tank are. ERA scopes those first.
The problem
Where floor cleaning quietly costs you
Cleaning budgets are consumed by predictable, repeated coverage of large open areas — the work least dependent on human judgement and most affected by staffing gaps.
- Coverage varies between shifts and between contractors, with no record of what was actually cleaned
- Overnight and early-morning shifts are the hardest to fill and the most expensive to backfill
- Large open areas absorb hours that would be better spent on detail work, amenities and touchpoints
- Auditors and tenants increasingly ask for evidence of cleaning, not assurances
Our approach
How ERA approaches a cleaning deployment
We measure the cleanable area rather than the total floor area, identify the surfaces and transitions a machine can and cannot handle, and set a route plan that fits the operating window. Training covers daily start-up, water and consumables, and fault recovery, so the deployment does not depend on a single trained operator.
Suitability
Where this works, and where it does not
Strong fit
- Large continuous hard-floor areas with predictable layouts
- A defined cleaning window with limited pedestrian traffic
- Access to water fill and drain points and a safe charging location
- A supervisor willing to own the daily routine
Needs closer assessment
- Heavily cluttered or frequently reconfigured floor areas
- Multiple level changes without lift access or ramps
- Predominantly carpeted or heavily textured surfaces
- Sites where no one is on shift to start and finish the machine
