Shopping centres, supermarkets and stores need floors cleaned across long opening hours, often while shoppers are still on site. SPARK Robotics helps UK retailers and centre managers use autonomous cleaning and promotional robots where they make the most difference.
We review your layout, footfall and cleaning schedule, recommend suitable equipment and help your team put it to work.
The right application depends on the size of the space and when it is busy. For some sites, that means scrubbing large malls overnight. For others, it means cleaning supermarket aisles, catching spills quickly or promoting offers on the shop floor.
Large autonomous scrubber-dryers can clean malls, atriums and walkways on a schedule, before opening or during quieter periods. Your team stays in control of priorities, spot cleaning and reporting.
Compact scrubbers can work along aisles, checkouts and entrances, sensing shoppers and trolleys and slowing down or stopping around them.
Spot-cleaning robots can be sent to spills and high-traffic areas between scheduled runs, helping keep floors safe and presentable throughout the day.
Robots with large screens can show offers, new products and directions as they move around the shop floor, drawing attention without taking staff away from customers.
Clean large malls, atriums and walkways on a regular schedule.
Keep aisles, checkouts and entrances clean throughout the day.
Maintain presentable floors and showcase the brand with service robots.
Sweep the large outdoor and underground areas shoppers use.
At Eldon Square in Newcastle, SPARK deployed an L50 scrubber-dryer to support the centre’s cleaning team. The case study shows how autonomous cleaning was introduced into a busy, working shopping centre.
We also work with retailers across cleaning and promotional applications. Explore the customer stories relevant to your site and the task you want to improve.
We discuss the repeated journeys or cleaning work you want to improve.
We review routes, surfaces, access, foot traffic, charging and staff handovers.
We agree what the demonstration or trial should show and how success will be assessed.
We configure the agreed solution, train your team and set out the support arrangements in your proposal.
The result is a recommendation based on your operation, rather than a robot selected from a catalogue.
Yes, in most cases. Our robots use sensors to detect people, trolleys and obstacles and slow down or stop around them. Many sites still schedule the larger cleaning runs for quieter periods.
Large scrubber-dryers such as the L50 suit open malls and concourses. Smaller scrubbers and spot-cleaning robots suit aisles, stores and tighter areas. We recommend equipment after looking at your layout.
No. Robots take on repetitive floor cleaning so your team can focus on spot cleaning, washrooms, detail work and responding to incidents.
Some service robots have large screens that can show offers, product launches and directions while moving around the shop floor. Content can be updated as campaigns change.
Robots record the areas cleaned, the time taken and any issues found. Reports can be reviewed in the robot’s app or dashboard, which helps when managing contracts and service levels.
