KEENON Robotics Unveils C55 Cleaning Robot at ISSA North America Expo
On November 11, 2025, KEENON Robotics made a significant impact at the ISSA North America Expo by revealing its cutting-edge cleaning robot, the C55. This robot, designed for medium to large areas, marks the company's entry into the North American market with offline product offerings.
The announcement followed a series of impressive exhibits showcasing KEENON's full range of robotic solutions, including the C40 and C30 cleaning robots, the W3 hotel robot, the T10 delivery robot, and the S300 heavy load transport robot. This diverse portfolio underlines KEENON’s leadership position in the service robotics industry, addressing various scenarios and environments.
Key Features of the C55
The C55 is crafted specifically for indoor spaces exceeding 3,000 square meters, seamlessly combining sweeping, scrubbing, and vacuuming functionalities into a single compact system. Here are some standout features:
Enhanced Cleaning Performance
Equipped with a unique triple roller system that separates wet and dry cleaning, the C55 ensures a clean water usage to prevent cross-contamination. Its powerful suction capability of 21,000 Pa allows it to dry floors in just 30 seconds, leaving no traces behind.
Optimal Efficiency
With a remarkable cleaning capacity of 2,376 square meters per hour and an extra-large 110-liter water tank, the C55 is capable of prolonged daily operation, requiring only a single refill. This efficiency is further complemented by a sophisticated 360-degree perception system that integrates LiDAR and stereo vision, allowing it to navigate and avoid obstacles with precision.
Smart Operation
The C55 offers smart management features, including remote operation, automated reporting, and the ability to autonomously return to its dock for recharging, wastewater disposal, and water refill. This level of independence minimizes the need for human intervention.
Robust and Reliable
Designed for continuous operation, the dual battery system allows the C55 to work 24/7, featuring a quick hot-swappable function in just five seconds. It can also tackle indoor terrain challenges with an obstacle-clearing height of 5 cm, easily traversing bumps and cables.
The C55 is part of a comprehensive suite of cleaning solutions provided by KEENON, designed to cater to diverse scenarios from vast industrial setups to intricate spaces. For example, the C40 synchronizes sweeping and scrubbing in commercial areas, while the C30 specializes in carpet maintenance, and the C20/C25 models support daily upkeep needs.
Collaborative Solutions
KEENON’s portfolio demonstrates adaptability across sectors. In industrial settings, cleaning robots can work in tandem with heavy load transport robots, whereas in hospitality, service and cleaning robots enhance operational efficiencies and elevate customer experiences.
Firmly establishing itself as a leading global player, KEENON Robotics retains the top market share for commercial service robots, as reported by IDC, a leading firm in information technology market intelligence. This highlights KEENON's ongoing dominance in the industry through innovative and integrated robotic solutions that assist businesses in reducing operational costs and increasing productivity.
As companies seek to embrace smart, automated technologies, the C55 signals a forward-thinking approach to cleanliness and operational efficiency, positioning KEENON Robotics at the forefront of the service robotics revolution.
