PUDU vs Gausium: what is the difference and which robot suits your business?

As the official distributor of both PUDU Robotics and Gausium, we regularly get the question: "Which brand is better?" The honest answer is that it depends on what you want to automate. Both brands are world leaders in their segment, but they have different priorities, product strategies, and customer groups.

The difference in one sentence

PUDU Robotics builds service robotics for people: delivery robots, guidance robots, and hybrid cleaning and service robots for environments where customer contact is central.

Gausium builds autonomous cleaning machines for surfaces: scrubbers, sweepers, and outdoor robots for commercial and industrial environments where floor area is the primary objective.

PUDU Robotics: for service and delivery

PUDU was founded in 2016 and has deployed more than 120,000 robots in over 60 countries. The brand is the market leader in service robotics with a 23% market share (Frost & Sullivan). The most deployed models in Belgium:

• BellaBot: delivery robot for hospitality with interactive display. Payload 40 kg, runtime 12–24 h. Ideal for restaurants, hotels, and large kitchens.
• KettyBot: delivery robot with large marketing display. Combination of delivery and digital communication, popular in retail and food courts.

Can both brands work together?

Absolutely. Many of our clients combine a Gausium scrubber for the floors with a PUDU delivery robot for internal logistics or customer service. The robots operate independently of each other and can work in the same space.
