All-day shopper traffic
From opening to closing there is barely a window for a thorough clean without shoppers present.
Industry solution · Specialist stores
Consistently clean sales floors at predictable cost.
Large-format specialist stores in electronics, sport or garden draw shopper traffic across their hard floor all day, yet a thorough clean rarely fits into opening hours. An autonomous scrubber keeps the floor clean on a fixed cadence, without costly night shifts. werob picks the right robot vendor-neutrally and runs it for its whole life.
Industry solution · Specialist stores
A clean floor without night premiums.
Specialist stores for electronics, sport, pet supplies or garden usually range between 2,000 and 8,000 square metres of sales floor on continuous hard floor. Over the day shoppers track in street dirt, and the floor loses its freshness before the next manual clean is due. Cleaning after closing brings premiums for late shifts; mopping during the day leaves a wet floor that bothers shoppers. An autonomous scrubber resolves that tension by running the floor on a fixed cadence, quietly among the shoppers. That keeps the sales floor consistently clean, makes costs predictable and removes expensive night premiums.
Challenges in specialist retail
Night premiums
Cleaning after closing means late shifts with premiums and costs that are hard to plan.
Street dirt
Shoppers track in dirt and moisture all day, and the floor quickly loses its freshness.
Large hard floors
Several thousand square metres of continuous hard floor are only kept clean by hand with heavy effort.

Common questions
- Why is cleaning during opening hours worthwhile?
- Cleaning after closing means late shifts with premiums. An autonomous scrubber works quietly, often under 55 decibels, and runs the floor on a fixed cadence among the shoppers. That keeps the sales floor clean through the day and removes expensive night premiums.
- Does the robot disturb shoppers on the floor?
- No. The navigation recognises people and trolleys and steers around them automatically, even at peak times. The robot runs quietly and leaves a floor that dries quickly, so cleaning happens unobtrusively during trading.
- Does a robot suit our layout and range?
- Specialist stores differ widely in aisle width and merchandising. In the spec werob checks your layout and picks the robot vendor-neutrally that fits your aisles and floor, rather than a standard machine. That way the choice is tailored to your store.
- Who handles maintenance and wear parts?
- werob runs the robot for its whole life. Brushes, filters, detergents, software updates and maintenance run centrally through one point of contact, with no manufacturer hotlines. The robot stays ready without your team spending time on it.
