LionsBot Autonomous Cleaning Robots

LionsBot International is a Singapore company founded in 2018 that designs and builds autonomous commercial cleaning robots. It addresses labour shortages and rising cleaning costs in airports, malls, hospitals, campuses and warehouses, and reports more than 7,000 robots deployed in over 40 countries.

The range includes the R5 flagship scrubber for mid-size spaces, the compact R3 Scrub Pro for corridors and back-of-house areas, and the quiet R3 Vac vacuum for occupied hours, with larger models such as the R12 Rex. All robots run on the LionsOS cloud operating system, and the LionsCloud app gives real-time tracking, coverage maps, battery status, maintenance alerts, remote diagnostics and editable maps. Engineering and testing are done in Singapore.

• R5 scrubber: flagship model with 360-degree turn-in-place mobility covering up to 5,000 m2 per charge.
• R3 Scrub Pro: compact scrubber for tight corridors and back-of-house spaces.
• R3 Vac: autonomous vacuum quiet enough to run during occupied hours.
• LionsOS: proprietary cloud operating system shared by all robots.
• LionsCloud app: real-time tracking, coverage maps, battery status and maintenance alerts.
• Remote service: remote diagnostics and editable, reusable maps.

A facility management contractor in Ho Chi Minh City can deploy R5 scrubbers in mall concourses and track coverage per site. An international airport terminal can run night-time scrubbing with fewer staff. A factory or logistics warehouse in an industrial park can automate floor cleaning of large aisles.

Frees cleaning staff from repetitive floor scrubbing and vacuuming so they can focus on detailed tasks. The R5 covers up to 5,000 m2 per charge, and the R3 Scrub Pro covers 800 to 1,200 m2 per hour. Fleet data from LionsCloud gives facility managers proof of coverage and maintenance alerts. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and ISO 27001 certification and SOC 2 audit, which helps in enterprise procurement.

Facility management companies across Southeast Asia face cleaner shortages and wage pressure, while airports, malls and offices demand consistent and auditable hygiene. Autonomous cleaning robots with cloud fleet reporting are moving from pilots to large rollouts, and Vietnam's growing stock of malls, offices and industrial parks creates a similar need.

Founded in 2018 and headquartered at Punggol Digital District, Singapore, with subsidiaries in the US, the Netherlands and India. Opened a cleaning robot factory in Singapore in April 2024 and co-developed a robotic machine with Nilfisk. Investors include Translink Capital and EDBI. No Vietnamese dealer is listed; the company runs a dealer programme in 46 markets.
