Peppermint Autonomous Cleaning Fleet & Docking Solutions with XO and Columbus Cleaning
Modern facility management demands exceptional reliability, measurable results, and strict operational efficiency. Distributed and supported by XO Robotics (a trade name of Flex Technologies Ltd based in Guildford, Surrey), the Peppermint fleet of autonomous floor scrubbers offers a breakthrough in commercial cleaning automation. Driven by the cloud-connected Peppermint OS and built upon a heavy-duty, modular ‘Skateboard’ electronic chassis, these robotic solutions elevate floor maintenance from an unpredictable manual task to a precision-engineered, digitally tracked asset.
Unlike standard tech operators, we offer cleaning machines from a cleaning company. Backed by deep field expertise and a pedigree in commercial facility care, we ensure your automation transition is seamless, practical, and robustly supported at every operational stage.
1. Peppermint SD20: The Compact & Versatile Scrubber Dryer
The Peppermint SD20 is engineered for maximum manoeuvrability in small to medium-sized commercial spaces. With an ultra-compact footprint (73 cm L x 59 cm W x 84 cm H), it effortlessly navigates narrow retail aisles, tight corridors, and busy hospitality venues without disrupting daily operations.
Key Features & Capabilities:
- Highly Manoeuvrable Design: Sized perfectly to fit through standard UK doorways and operate seamlessly in confined commercial spaces.
- Shift Efficiency: Delivers up to 4 hours of continuous cleaning runtime per battery charge.
- Smart Analytics & Reporting: Connects directly to the Peppermint OS dashboard for live robot health diagnostics and verified “proof-of-clean” coverage heatmaps.
- Intuitive Operator Interface: A multilingual touchscreen system designed for fast staff onboarding and simple daily deployment.

3. Peppermint Tru-Dock: Automated Servicing Station
For seamless, round-the-clock facility maintenance, the Peppermint Tru-Dock removes the need for manual intervention. Whenever a scrubber’s battery is depleted or its tanks need emptying, the robot autonomously returns to the Tru-Dock to recharge, drain wastewater, and replenish its fresh water supply before resuming its cleaning schedule.
Core Automated Utilities:
- Automated Battery Charging: Fast, contact-safe, and fully automated docking to recharge the unit.
- Hygienic Wastewater Drainage: Automatically extracts and safely flushes away dirty recovery water.
- Autonomous Fresh Water Refilling: Replenishes the fresh water tank with clean water and precise, pre-mixed chemical ratios.
- Universal Fleet Compatibility: Fully supports the current Peppermint SD20 and SD45 platforms, as well as legacy SD2X and SD4X models.
Trusted by Global Industry Leaders
Peppermint Robotics platforms have been rigorously tested and deployed in some of the most demanding commercial environments worldwide. Our autonomous scrubbers are trusted by industry leaders across manufacturing, aviation, and FMCG, including Coca-Cola, Nestlé, Honda, Denso, and Mumbai International Airport.
European Quality Control & Professional Support Framework
The single greatest risk in deploying automation is downtime caused by remote tech support delays. At XO Robotics, we eliminate this vulnerability entirely. We distribute and support the Peppermint autonomous cleaning line in direct strategic cooperation with Columbus Cleaning Machines, a legendary name in high-performance industrial floor care.
This powerful alliance guarantees an unmatched standard of operational reliability across the UK market:
- German Supply Chain Infrastructure: All genuine spare parts are fully stocked and dispatched directly from our central repository in Germany, ensuring rapid logistics, robust part availability, and minimal turnaround times for hardware replacements.
- Rigorous European Quality Control: Every autonomous mobile unit undergoes strict European quality screening, localized hardware validation, and field-compliance safety tests prior to site deployment.
- Cleaning Equipment Experts: Because we provide cleaning machinery backed by a true cleaning operations framework, we understand floor chemistry, brush dynamics, and real-world facility constraints. You are supported by regional engineering specialists rather than remote tech operators forced to rely on support from distant robotics firms.
- CE Certified Standards: Every system in our line features full CE safety accreditation and compliant collaborative sensor layouts, backed locally by our core technical team based out of Guildford, Surrey.
To ensure this automation is accessible to businesses of all sizes, we offer three tailored procurement pathways:
- Direct Capital Purchase (CapEx): Purchase your Peppermint unit outright. Includes full hardware ownership, comprehensive onsite mapping, staff operator training, and an initial 12-month manufacturer warranty.
- Flexible Business Rental (OpEx): Rent your autonomous fleet over a 12 to 36-month term. Protect your upfront capital while enjoying predictable monthly payments that align closely with your immediate operational savings.
- Turnkey Cleaning-as-a-Service (CaaS): Let us handle the entire scope of the clean. We deploy the hardware, programme the most efficient routes, manage consumable stock, and oversee the fleet—providing you with verifiable, digital “proof-of-clean” metrics every single day.
