Tennant Expands Manufacturing of Cleaning Robots in Europe
Tennant Company has added production capacity for Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) at its Uden factory in the Netherlands.
The move will facilitate production of Tennant’s latest innovation, the X4 ROVR™ – a compact, AI-powered robotic floor scrubber designed for high-traffic commercial environments including airports, shopping centres, and hospitals.
It follows the successful rollout of T16AMR production in Uden in January 2025 and reflects the company's strategy of localising manufacturing, reduce environmental impact, and accelerate delivery times for European customers.
“Automation is scaling across EMEA,” says Sylvain Rottier, VP & General Manager, Tennant EMEA. “By manufacturing both the T16AMR and X4 ROVR™ in Europe, we’re enabling our customers to access next-generation robotic cleaning solutions faster, with the added reassurance of EU-based data handling and local service support.”
Over the past 12 months, Tennant has seen an increase in AMR deployments across EMEA, with adoption rising in sectors such as retail, logistics, healthcare, and manufacturing. The company’s global AMR fleet – powered by BrainOS®, the leading AI software for robotic cleaning – has now surpassed 10,000 deployed units globally.

Local production reduces transatlantic shipping, lowers emissions, and allows Tennant to better support region-specific needs.
“Companies across Europe are investing in autonomy not just for productivity, but also to solve labour shortages, improve sustainability, and unlock real-time operational insights.
The X4 ROVR™, manufactured locally and powered by BrainOS®, is purpose-built for this new era,” adds Michel Spruijt, President of Brain Corp International
Data collected by the AMRs remains secure and compliant.
Tennant’s European customers benefit from:
The X4 ROVR™ and the new X6 ROVR™ will be showcased live at CMS Berlin 2025, with hands-on demonstrations and expert walkthroughs at the Tennant and Brain Corp booth – Hall 1.2, stand 221.
