What TASKI does

TASKI is a Swiss-founded designer and manufacturer of professional floor care equipment, headquartered in Münchwilen, Switzerland, with North American production based in Toledo, Ohio. Founded in 1955 by Alfred Sutter, the company has built a 70-year portfolio spanning scrubber driers, vacuums, single-disc machines, sweepers, carpet care, steam cleaners, and the Twister diamond-pad system. Its current product generation increasingly centers on autonomous robotics — the Ecobot 40, Ecobot 50 Pro, and the compact AI-powered TASKI Phantas — and on a connected-fleet stack including IntelliTrail 2.0 fleet management, IntelliPredict predictive maintenance, and IntelliPods chemical dosing. The ULTIMAXX scrubber drier line is modular to over 10,000 configurations, and the TASKI AERO vacuum leverages a patented Whisper motor for low-noise operation.

TASKI operates as a cleaning-equipment strategic business unit within Diversey, Inc., which was acquired by Solenis in 2023, and its products are sold in more than 80 countries through the parent's global commercial network. The customer base is anchored by large facility management service providers — including ISS, Apleona, and Diversified Maintenance — as well as transportation infrastructure operators such as Zurich Airport, with a 2025 deployment of 26 autonomous robots at the airport cited as a flagship reference. Revenue is generated across four interlocking streams: equipment sales (capital outlay), consumables (pads, chemicals, pods), connected software and telemetry subscriptions (IntelliTrail/IntelliPredict), and aftermarket service contracts. Recent strategic activity — the 2023 acquisitions of NSS Enterprises and the 2024 acquisition of Aqua ChemPacs, the 2024 partnership with Gausium Robotics, and the 2024-2025 launches of the Ecobot range, Phantas, and ULTIMAXX 360 — indicate a deliberate repositioning from manual-equipment incumbent toward an integrated robotics-and-software platform for the enterprise FM channel.

Partnerships

Seven partnerships are on record, tiered core and flagship.

• ApleonacoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 19 March 2026Apleona, one of Europe's leading facility management service providers, and TASKI strengthened their collaboration to make cleaning processes at Apleona's customer sites more efficient, sustainable, and technologically advanced. State-of-the-art cleaning machines including smart scrubber dryers with IoT connectivity, energy-efficient solutions, and machines with optimized water and chemical dosing are deployed nationwide across Apleona-managed facilities in Germany. The partnership enhances service quality and contributes to sustainability goals of both companies.
• Zurich Airport LtdflagshipStrategic or Co-development Partner · 8 May 2025TASKI partnered with Zurich Airport Ltd to install 26 advanced cleaning robots (20 Ecobot 50 and 6 Phantas), one of the largest robotic cleaning projects in Switzerland. The autonomous robots integrate with Zurich Airport's digitalized cleaning platform, managing recharging, filling, emptying, and even communicating with peripherals such as doors. Robots can clean up to 120 square kilometers daily and recycle water up to 3 times. ROI is estimated at under 2 years.
• Gausium RoboticscoreTechnology or Integration · 1 January 2024Global strategic collaboration with Gausium Robotics to introduce the Ecobot 40 and Ecobot 50 range of autonomous cleaning machines in 2024. This partnership builds on TASKI's existing robotics capabilities (acquired Intellibot Robotics USA in 2016) and Gausium's autonomous cleaning technology to deliver a comprehensive robotic cleaning portfolio.
• ISScoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerTASKI and ISS, one of the world's largest facility management providers, partnered on sustainability. ISS achieved significant energy and CO₂ reductions by deploying TASKI AERO Plus vacuum cleaners (with Eco mode consuming only 300W). CO₂ savings over 3 years are equivalent to 1,499 cars driven for one year. ISS was presented with the 100,000th TASKI AERO Plus vacuum at a ceremony in Copenhagen.
• Diversified MaintenancecoreChannel Partner/ Reseller/ DistributorDiversified Maintenance, serving more than 11,500 client locations across the U.S., selected TASKI as its floorcare machine partner for new customer rollouts. The partnership leverages TASKI's advanced engineering, sustainability focus, low total cost of ownership, and the IntelliTrail fleet management platform. Diversified Maintenance has been a 51-year customer of NSS (now part of TASKI since 2023).
• Intellibot Robotics USAcoreTechnology or IntegrationTASKI acquired Intellibot Robotics USA in 2016, integrating it completely into TASKI and gaining the expertise needed to create autonomous cleaning robots. This acquisition provided funding and support for Intellibot's integration into TASKI's infrastructure, giving TASKI a head start in creating next-generation cleaning robots that formed the SWINGOBOT 2000 and later Ecobot product lines.
• Twister (acquired by Diversey)coreTechnology or IntegrationDiversey acquired Twister, a revolutionary floor cleaning diamond technology, making TASKI the only company on the market to offer an integrated Twister button on its machines.
