Easy Floor Robotics – Offerings Profile
Primary Target Markets – 1) Manufacturing, 2) Logistics, and three) Construction
Technology / Product / Service(s) – Easy Floor Robotics automates the method of making use of coating to flooring (ground casting) to provide a seamless, resistant end result. Their EFR system, which integrates a number of robots for making use of flooring and a docking station, can use varied supplies which might be out there available on the market (equivalent to epoxy).
Value Proposition – In the commercial markets, storage amenities, garages, gasoline stations, and underground parking heaps, there’s rising demand for sealed, seamless flooring. But the handbook technique of making use of coating to flooring – mixing, loading the supplies into the mixer bucket, casting, portray, sanding, and creating texture – is a demanding and time consuming enterprise.
According to Easy Floor Robotics representatives, their EFR system creates excessive precision, seamless flooring in half the time in contrast with conventional flooring strategies, and cuts workforce necessities by 75%. The system produces a high-level end with excessive accuracy and repeatability. The firm estimates that the EFR system may save building corporations greater than $1,000 on day by day labor prices.
Demand Drivers – Flooring is without doubt one of the oldest building duties. Although in excessive demand, there has not been any vital technological breakthrough to scale back the time, complexity and prices of flooring work. Moreover, in lots of nations, the development sector is challenged by a extreme scarcity of expert labor. The variety of staff within the building trade is reducing, younger folks don’t need to work within the building trade. As a end result, the typical age of building staff in lots of industrialized nations is now over 50 years previous.
Easy Floor Robotics’ main competitors is with with handbook labor… those that know easy methods to apply, stage out and coat seamless flooring.
Easy Floor Robotics – Business Model(s) and Competition
Business Model – Easy Floor Robotics’ enterprise mannequin is B2B. When collaboration has been established with a chemical firm that has worldwide deployment, the robots will probably be bought. Maintenance and disposable spare elements will probably be out there.
Competitive Landscape – According to Easy Floor Robotics representatives, the corporate has no direct opponents at this stage. Easy Floor Robotics’ main competitors is with with handbook labor… those that know easy methods to apply, stage out and coat seamless flooring. In the long run, Easy Floor Robotics will probably be competing with tile, PVC and linoleum installers.
