BooCax

BooCax Technology focuses exclusively on autonomous air disinfection robots, developing three distinct product lines—UV sterilization, spray disinfection, and plasma air purification—that serve hospitals, airports, transit stations, and other high-traffic public facilities across China and internationally.

Company Overview

Established in 2014 in Beijing, BooCax entered the disinfection robotics market with a clear mission: applying autonomous mobile robot technology to indoor air quality management. The company holds National High-tech Enterprise status and has built manufacturing capacity through two production facilities in Shandong and Henan provinces, enabling cost-effective production while maintaining supply chain stability.

BooCax’s technical foundation rests on proprietary SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) navigation technology, which enables centimeter-level positioning accuracy across all product lines. This core competency allows the company’s robots to operate autonomously in complex indoor environments, automatically navigating between disinfection points, avoiding obstacles, and returning to charging stations without human intervention.

The company gained significant market traction during 2020-2022, when demand for automated disinfection solutions accelerated across healthcare and public facilities. BooCax responded by expanding its product portfolio beyond UV disinfection to include spray-based and plasma-based systems, addressing different use cases and regulatory requirements.

Core Products

UV Disinfection Robot Series

The UV200 and UV200S represent BooCax’s ultraviolet disinfection lineup, designed for terminal disinfection in operating rooms, patient wards, and other clinical environments. The UV200 employs ten 41W UV-C tubes arranged in a 360-degree configuration, delivering irradiation intensity up to 492.2 μW/cm² at one meter distance. Using 254nm wavelength germicidal lamps registered with the US EPA, these systems achieve documented kill rates exceeding 99.9% against C. difficile, MRSA, and VRE within seconds of exposure.

Spray Disinfection Robot Series

Products including Bubble Fish BF01, MAX, 180C, and 220A address large-space disinfection requirements through ultrafine atomization technology. The Bubble Fish generates particles as small as 4.23 micrometers, meeting hospital terminal disinfection standards under China’s GB 27948-2020 national specification. The MAX model features an 18-liter tank with 3,200 ml/h spray capacity, suitable for airport terminals and railway stations. All spray robots support multiple disinfectants including sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, and peracetic acid.

Plasma Air Sterilizing Robot Series

Launched in 2022, the Penguin PG01 introduced human-machine coexistence capability to BooCax’s portfolio—allowing continuous operation in occupied spaces without evacuation. The plasma generator produces high-density ionized particles that actively capture and inactivate airborne pathogens while simultaneously removing formaldehyde and odors. Ozone emissions remain below 0.046 PPM, meeting both WHO and US EPA indoor air quality standards.

Technology & Innovation

BooCax’s autonomous navigation platform incorporates LiDAR-based mapping, visual obstacle detection, and infrared human presence sensing. When UV robots detect personnel within 3-5 meters, germicidal lamps automatically deactivate—a safety interlock critical for healthcare deployment. The mobile app interface enables remote monitoring, scheduled disinfection routines, and zone-based coverage planning.

The plasma technology in the Penguin series represents a distinct technical approach. Rather than relying on chemical disinfectants or UV radiation that requires space evacuation, plasma ionization creates reactive species that neutralize microorganisms through oxidative mechanisms. Electron microscopy studies confirm the physical breakdown of bacterial cell membranes and viral particles when exposed to the plasma field.

Market Presence

BooCax products have deployed across diverse sectors including healthcare institutions, transportation hubs, hotels, museums, schools, and shopping centers. The company maintains international distribution through participation in medical equipment exhibitions like MedicalExpo and direct export channels. Products carry CE certification for European markets and CMA (China Metrology Accreditation) testing certification from national authorities.

The dual manufacturing base in Shandong and Henan provinces supports both domestic demand and export requirements, with production lines optimized for different product categories and volume tiers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of disinfection robots does BooCax manufacture?

BooCax produces three categories: UV disinfection robots (UV200, UV200S) using 254nm germicidal lamps, spray disinfection robots (Bubble Fish, MAX, 180C, 220A) employing ultrafine atomization, and plasma air sterilizing robots (Penguin, Dolphin) that enable human-machine coexistence during operation.

Can BooCax robots operate while people are present in the room?

Only the Penguin plasma series supports human-machine coexistence. UV robots automatically shut down when detecting personnel within 3-5 meters for safety reasons. Spray robots typically require space evacuation depending on the disinfectant used.

What certifications do BooCax products hold?

Products have obtained CE certification for European markets and CMA (China Metrology Accreditation) testing certification. The UV200 uses EPA-registered UV lamps. Spray robots comply with China’s GB 27948-2020 disinfection standards and WS/T 367-2012 medical institution disinfection technical specifications.
