Tile scrubbing on a four-hour cadence.

A major U.S. convenience retailer introduced PUDU CC1 robots and docking stations to standardize tile-floor cleaning in busy, food-service-heavy stores.

The operating environment

Convenience stores combine steady foot traffic, food-service activity, and a limited amount of staff time for recurring floor care. The retailer needed a more consistent way to keep tile floors on schedule throughout the day.

How the robots were used

CC1 robots were paired with docking stations and scheduled for a typical cleaning cycle every four hours. A normal run lasted about 20 to 30 minutes, with additional cycles used during periods of heavier traffic.

What the deployment illustrates

A clearly defined floor type, compact route, docking location, and repeatable cadence can turn autonomous cleaning into an operating routine. The schedule is specific enough to review and adjust without asking store staff to initiate every pass.
