Avidbots is pleased to announce a partnership with Daeduck International to bring Neo – an autonomous floor-scrubbing robot – to South Korea.

According to a press release demand for Neo across Asia is accelerating. South Korea becomes the fourth Asian market to adopt Neo. Following a successful launch in Singapore, Neo is deployed at Changi Airport plus a range of healthcare, education and retail locations there, while in Japan, travellers will see the robot supporting operations at Kansai Airport. In 2018, Avidbots opened a regional office in Hong Kong with a focus on direct sales and support entry into mainland China.

Established in 1995, Daeduck International is a leading South Korean distributor of commercial hardware, including sweepers, floor-scrubbers and construction equipment. The company will provide sales and service for Neo from its headquarters in Pohang-si.

“Asia is an important market for Avidbots and we’re delighted to add South Korea to the growing list of countries in which Neo is available,” said Faizan Sheikh, Avidbots CEO. “Daeduck International shares our commitment to maximizing human potential through world-class robotics. We look forward to seeing Neo support facility operations teams throughout South Korea.”

Avidbots is the maker of Neo, a purpose-built commercial floor-cleaning robot that integrates navigation technology with hardware designed for ease of use, longevity, serviceability, safety, and high productivity.
