The idea for LionsBot began when Dylan Ng & Michelle Seow, co-founders of leading cleaning supplies distributor SuperSteam Asia Pacific, realised that there was a need for better cleaning robots than what the global market had to offer.

the lionsbot story
Teaming up with leading robotics professor Dr. Mohan Rajesh Elara, they built up their first cleaning robot from scratch and co-founded LionsBot in Singapore – a name that represented their fierce commitment to innovation and cleaning, and paid homage to the city they started from
From no team to thousands of cleaning robots in 30 countries and counting, our mission has stayed the same:
To give cleaners superpowers with easy-to-use, powerful, and reliable robots and make the world a better, cleaner place.
That mission culminated in us clinching the coveted Interclean Amsterdam Innovation Award in 2020—the first Asian company to ever do so.’
