“Selling 10,000 robotic scrubbers is a major milestone — not just for Tennant, but for robotic cleaning adoption overall,” said Dave Huml, President and CEO of Tennant Company. “It signals a clear shift with customers: we’ve moved past the wait-and-see era. Scalable robotic cleaning programs deliver real results, customers are choosing Tennant for robotic cleaning, and this is only the beginning.”

Robotic cleaning solutions now deliver more consistent results, reduced reliance on human labor for repetitive tasks, and more accurate, real-time reporting on cleaning results. Cleaning robotics now helps meet compliance standards and supports audit readiness in a way that wasn’t possible a decade ago. Tennant’s journey reflects these technological advancements.

Some of the milestones along the way of Tennant’s AMR journey:

The sale of 10,000 robotic cleaning machines shows more than general demand for AMRs. Customers choose Tennant again and again because of its emphasis on the human element of AMR adoption — service and support. As organizations scale up automation, they need a partner to help adopt robotics alongside their existing team, working directly with customers to implement tech, train employees, and monitor results to ensure AMRs fully integrate into daily workflows. This hands-on support is one example of Tennant’s ability to look forward and ensure automation delivers real, lasting value for its customers.

“Reaching this milestone is a testament to Tennant’s continued focus on delivering innovation that’s both forward-thinking and field-proven,” said John Ickes, Director of Design and Innovation at Tennant Company. “Our AMR solutions aren’t just about new technology — they’re about helping customers solve real operational challenges with tools designed expressly for the scenarios they deal with on a day-to-day basis.”
