Primech AI Introduces Hytron, the World's Most Advanced Autonomous Restroom Cleaning Robot, to North America at CES 2026
LAS VEGAS, Dec. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Primech Holdings Ltd. (NASDAQ:PMEC), a global leader in AI-powered hygienic robotics, today announced the North American debut of Hytron at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. Hytron is the world's most advanced autonomous restroom cleaning robot and an award-winning solution purpose built to deliver fully autonomous restroom hygiene in commercial environments.
Hytron establishes a new category of intelligent facility automation by addressing the most complex and labor intensive area of commercial cleaning, the restroom. Designed specifically for real world restroom layouts, Hytron's compact design at less than 16 inches width (400mm / 15.7in) Universal Fit design allows it to navigate standard restroom environments, enter toilet stalls, and access confined spaces while delivering comprehensive, repeatable cleaning performance across all restroom fixtures.
Hytron is designed as a fully integrated system, bringing together advanced robotics, intelligent automation, and purpose-built hardware to deliver reliable performance in high traffic commercial facilities.
Fully Autonomous Restroom Cleaning
Unlike traditional automated cleaning systems that focus on single tasks, Hytron manages restroom hygiene at the fixture level through a unified, AI driven platform. The system is designed to clean and sanitize all critical restroom touchpoints while intelligently controlling water application to minimize slip risk.
Hytron autonomously cleans and sanitizes:
- Toilet bowls, including lid, and the inner and outer rim
- Urinals
- Sinks, mirrors, countertops, and surrounding high contact surfaces
- Floor areas immediately surrounding fixtures, with targeted mopping designed to support safety and hygiene
This comprehensive, end to end approach establishes Hytron as the global standard for autonomous commercial restroom hygiene.
"CES 2026 represents the next phase of Hytron's global expansion," said Ken Ho, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Primech Holdings. "Following successful deployments and strong market reception across Singapore, Hong Kong, and Macau, along with growing demand from CMS Berlin and the Tokyo Building and Maintenance Expo, we are bringing a proven, enterprise ready solution to North America. Hytron was engineered specifically for where cleaning actually happens, combining a compact form factor, advanced AI, and full fixture coverage to give facility managers a level of restroom automation that simply has not existed until now."
Industry Leading AI and Robotics Platform
Hytron is built on the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Super System-on-Module, delivering on device AI inference for real time perception, navigation, and decision making within complex restroom environments. The platform enables adaptive 2D navigation without reliance on virtual reality training, fixed routes, or rigid pre-programming, allowing Hytron to operate reliably in dynamic, high traffic settings.
Through advanced machine learning and sensor fusion, Hytron continuously responds to changing conditions, detects obstacles, and optimizes cleaning paths to maintain consistent performance during live facility operations.
Advanced Autonomous System Architecture
Hytron is engineered as a fully autonomous restroom cleaning system, combining AI driven perception, safety aware navigation, and purpose built cleaning hardware to operate reliably in high traffic commercial environments. The platform integrates real time decision making, fixture level precision, and enterprise grade autonomy within a compact form factor.
Key System Capabilities and Specifications include:
- Verified disinfection performance exceeding 99 percent bacterial reduction, independently tested and validated
- Compact 15.7-inch (400mm) universal access width enabling navigation through standard restroom layouts and stalls
- NVIDIA Jetson Orin Super AI platform, delivering on device edge level computing with CUDA, cuDNN, and TensorRT acceleration
- Real time 2D AI navigation and perception, with dynamic obstacle detection, path optimization, and adaptive routing
- Fixture level cleaning architecture, engineered to precisely target toilets, urinals, basins, mirrors, and surrounding high contact surfaces
- Targeted floor mopping around fixtures, intentionally limited to reduce slip risk while maintaining hygiene where it matters most
- Chemical free cleaning system using electrolyzed water and e water jet technology, reducing operating costs and environmental impact
- Fully autonomous operation, including self charging, automatic water management, door navigation, and unattended deployment
Enterprise Validation and Global Deployment Readiness
Hytron is a commercially validated solution, supported by global partners and enterprise scale deployments.
Strategic partnerships include:
- Savills, via Swan Hygiene Solutions, exclusive distributor for Hong Kong and Macau, with a 200-unit fleet deployment commitment
- WELLE Environmental Group (300190.SZ), strategic joint venture partner providing industrial scale manufacturing and sustainability leadership
- Singapore National Environment Agency, which approved Hytron as supportable equipment under the Environmental Services Productivity Solutions Grant
"With strong demand from international markets and confirmed fleet deployments, Hytron is ready for global scale," said Charles Ng, Chief Operating Officer of Primech AI. "Mass production begins in the first quarter of 2026, backed by publicly traded industrial partners and established real estate services leaders."
