Primech AI’s HYTRON Fully Autonomous AI-Powered Restroom Cleaning Robot Wins TechRadar Pro Picks Award at CES 2026

Recognition validates HYTRON's position as a breakthrough innovation in autonomous facility management, reinforcing Primech Holdings' leadership in AI-powered robotics

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Primech AI Pte. Ltd. (“Primech AI”), a subsidiary of Primech Holdings Ltd. (Nasdaq: PMEC), today announced that its flagship HYTRON Fully Autonomous AI-Powered Restroom Cleaning Robot has been named a TechRadar Pro Picks Award winner at CES 2026, the world’s most influential technology event.

The award, presented by TechRadar Pro in partnership with TWICE and Residential Systems, recognizes products expected to deliver meaningful real-world impact and shape the future of commercial and enterprise technology. The recognition validates HYTRON’s commercial potential and reinforces Primech Holdings’ positioning as it accelerates adoption across the U.S. commercial cleaning market, estimated at approximately $76.7 billion.

CES 2026 brought together more than 4,100 exhibitors and over 148,000 attendees, including approximately 6,900 members of the global media, underscoring the scale and competitiveness of the event. HYTRON was selected from hundreds of exhibitors for its differentiated approach to one of facility management’s most persistent challenges, maintaining consistent hygiene standards in high-traffic restrooms while addressing ongoing labor shortages and rising operational costs. The TechRadar Pro Picks Award highlights growing industry recognition of autonomous robotics as a transformational solution for enterprise facility operations.

“Winning the TechRadar Pro Picks Award at CES 2026 is a strong validation of the years of research and development behind HYTRON and its readiness for commercial deployment,” said Ken Ho, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Primech Holdings. “The United States represents one of the largest and most sophisticated markets for facility automation, and CES provided an important platform to engage enterprise customers actively evaluating autonomous solutions. Recognition from a leading global technology media platform reinforces our conviction that HYTRON defines a new category of intelligent facility automation, delivering measurable hygiene outcomes, reducing labor dependency, and supporting the sustainability and operational priorities of modern enterprises.”

HYTRON made its North American debut at CES 2026, held January 6–9 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, where it demonstrated its full suite of autonomous capabilities. These include AI-powered navigation, six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm precision, and proprietary ozone-enhanced electrolyzed water technology that has achieved greater than 99% bacterial reduction, consistent with hospital-grade disinfection benchmarks. HYTRON autonomously cleans toilets, urinals, sinks, mirrors, and floors without human intervention, generating strong interest from enterprise facility operators, hospitality groups, healthcare institutions, and large venue operators.

The CES 2026 recognition follows a series of strategic milestones for Primech Holdings, including a $4.0 million strategic investment from WELLE Environmental Group, a 200-unit fleet commitment with Swan Hygiene Solutions, a subsidiary of Savills, for deployment across Hong Kong and Macau, and expanding pilot deployments across Singapore, including a leading hospital and multiple commercial facilities.

As Primech prepares to begin mass production of HYTRON in the first quarter of 2026, the company is actively engaging enterprise customers through proof-of-concept pilot programs and is now accepting preorders for commercial deployments.
