Wuppertal, February 5, 2025 – Nexaro, a technology start-up based in Wuppertal, has expanded its product range with the launch of its latest intelligent robot vacuum cleaner, the Nexaro NR 1700. This new model is specifically designed to meet the demands and provide efficient cleaning for larger and more complex spaces in a professional environment. The development of the Nexaro NR 1700 was a result of close collaboration with leading national and international cleaning companies, as Nexaro aims to ensure the future viability of the commercial building cleaning market.
According to Dr. Henning Hayn, General Manager of Nexaro, the Nexaro NR 1700 is “the ideal solution for large-scale and complex applications such as lobbies, showrooms and other complex room structures in hotels, office buildings or retail properties.” This new model complements the existing Nexaro NR 1500, which remains the perfect solution for smaller areas and specific applications such as hotel room cleaning.
Equipped with the latest sensor technology, the Nexaro NR 1700 uses a long-range, high-precision laser distance sensor to navigate areas of up to 1,000 square meters. This autonomous robot vacuum cleaner effortlessly adapts to different surface structures and efficiently cleans a variety of carpets and hard floors.
The newly integrated bevel behind the bumper enables an even smoother and closer clean around objects, while the rugged case with reinforced dust container cover and patented auxiliary wheels for electrostatic discharge provide greater stability and durability. In addition, the customized side cleaning brush is designed for increased durability.
Nexaro has also enhanced its digital platform, the Nexaro HUB, with innovative features such as automatic, AI-based creation of no-go zones and live tracking of the robot’s position during mapping. These new features increase user-friendliness and seamless integration into existing work processes, ensuring maximum efficiency.
Both the Nexaro NR 1700 and the Nexaro NR 1500 are compatible with the Nexaro HUB and can be operated as a fleet within one facility. This fully networked system solution is optimally tailored to the individual needs of customers.
The Nexaro NR 1700 will be available from February 5, 2025 at a cost of 2,990.90 euros, which includes a 36-month Pro.Multi license for the Nexaro HUB. Delivery will begin in April 2025.
Nexaro’s cobotic approach, which focuses on the close collaboration between humans and the latest autonomous robot technology, aims to relieve the burden on cleaning professionals by eliminating strenuous work such as dry cleaning of floors. This not only increases the attractiveness of the job profile, but also enables employees to concentrate on more demanding tasks. Companies benefit from increased efficiency and quality while simultaneously reducing costs.
In 2024, Nexaro set a benchmark for the commercial building cleaning industry with the launch of the Nexaro NR 1500, the world’s first compact robot vacuum cleaner that meets the latest international safety standard IEC 63327 for commercial cleaning robots. This was confirmed by the independent testing center TÜV SÜD, and the system was also awarded the renowned GS test mark by TÜV SÜD.
Nexaro, a start-up from Wuppertal and part of the Vorwerk Group, aims to become a driving force in the cleaning industry with its innovative cobotic approach. As an independent company within the Vorwerk Group, Nexaro benefits from mutual knowledge and technology transfer and has the necessary freedom to develop the business model. The company prioritizes data security and sustainability in addition to ensuring the highest quality.
