Is Your Warehouse Floor a Blind Spot?
The Rising Cost of Labor
Minimum wages for building cleaning are structurally increasing across the DACH region by law. Germany's interior cleaning minimum wage will reach €15.00/hour by January 2026. Combined with logistics staff turnover rates running at 40% or higher, the traditional manual cleaning model is facing severe financial pressure.
The Threat to Automation
The European warehouse automation market is forecast to grow by 17.86% annually. However, dust and debris on unmanaged floors can interfere with the sensors of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), causing expensive, unplanned downtime.
Hidden Data & Compliance Risks
Connected cleaning equipment acts as operational technology (OT) that generates and transmits sensitive facility data. This introduces significant data privacy risks, with potential GDPR fines reaching up to €20 million or 4% of annual turnover.

FAQs
We support global logistics and industrial companies by reducing cleaning costs by up to 70%, enabling effortless labor, and delivering sustainable, cutting-edge robotic solutions. These savings can exceed €22,000 per year, providing significant financial relief for businesses worldwide.
Our autonomous robots ensure continuous cleaning, promoting employee health and safety while preventing industrial machinery damage. Equipped with advanced perception and navigation, they adapt seamlessly to various environments, including hazardous zones. With enhanced human-machine interaction, our technology enables live monitoring, performance tracking, and reporting through the KEMARO web app and cloud.
With around-the-clock automation, configurable time settings, and flexible scheduling, our robots operate efficiently with real-time mapping and advanced analytics. Engine-free engineering minimises wasted energy, and all KEMARO models are built with durable components to ensure long-lasting performance.
Using sophisticated algorithms and artificial intelligence, our robots efficiently clean large industrial areas with ease. KEMARO offers a range of GEN II cleaning solutions, including the K900 Smart, K900 ECO, K900 TOP, and K900 Integrated, each designed for specific industrial needs.
These autonomous sweeper robots navigate seamlessly within a space, operating around the clock while intelligently sensing their environment and avoiding obstacles. To ensure a hassle-free experience, KEMARO provides professional installation, maintenance, and remote servicing, allowing customers to simply “plug and play” their K900 robots. Our cleaning solutions are designed to deliver efficiency, reliability, and peace of mind for both end customers and distributors.
As the only autonomous cleaning solution available for storage and retrieval systems, the K900’s lightweight design ensures compatibility with floor weight restrictions, while its advanced navigation algorithm enables it to cover up to 20'000 m²—scalable to 100'000 m² with multiple docking stations.
The robot is rated IP54, meaning electrical enclosure is protected from water spray from any direction. Therefore, the robot may be used in a wet indoor environment. Although it does not sweep liquids, small amounts of moisture do not affect the machine.
