i-Team Global Launches Co-Botic 1700 “Drop and Go” for Autonomous Cleaning Efficiency

i-Team Global has unveiled the latest addition to its Co-Botics range with the launch of the Co-Botic 1700 “Drop and Go” — a robotic vacuum designed to simplify and automate commercial floor cleaning. This innovation reportedly addresses the industry's growing demand for autonomous and efficient cleaning technologies, particularly in high-traffic, large-scale environments.

Introducing the Co-Botic 1700 Series

The Co-Botic 1700 “Drop and Go” is a battery-powered robotic vacuum engineered to autonomously clean various floor types using smart mapping and obstacle-avoidance technology. With minimal setup or human intervention required, the robot offers a plug-and-play solution for facilities teams seeking consistent, day-to-day cleaning support.

Key Features and Benefits

• Autonomous Cleaning: The robot learns floor layouts and navigates seamlessly around obstacles, allowing consistent cleaning without manual guidance.
• Drop and Go Deployment: Users can place the robot on the floor and press one button to initiate the cleaning process, requiring no programming or pre-setup for daily use.
• Smart Operation: Co-Botic 1700 includes an AI-driven interface for mapping routines, as well as return-to-base functionality for recharging.
• Lightweight and Compact: Weighing under 5 kilograms, the unit is portable and easy to move between rooms or floors without equipment strain.

The launch reflects a broader trend in commercial cleaning solutions, with companies seeking advanced, sustainable cleaning equipment amidst ongoing staff shortages and rising hygiene expectations in public and private spaces.

Industry Implications and Technology Integration

The Co-Botic 1700 Drop and Go complements wider advancements across the cleaning industry, aligning with demand for sustainable cleaning solutions and increased automation in outsourced housekeeping and janitorial services. As facilities evolve, innovations like these may play a growing role in contract cleaning supplies and long-term efficiency planning.

While i-Team Global continues to expand its co-bot lineup, other industry players, like Tennant and Nilfisk, are actively investing in similar robotic technology. However, amidst evolving offerings, service consistency and reliable logistics remain critical for clients managing high-volume sites in hospitality and healthcare.

Ensuring Full-Service Support in Cleaning Operations

As robotic tools increasingly enter daily workflows, it becomes clear that automated hardware must be supported by strong backend logistics — including access to contract cleaning supplies, bulk cleaning chemicals, and technical guidance.
