The end of the year is here! This is the time to reminisce about your year, look back at the (failed) resolutions, listen to your Spotify Wrapped playlist - and, most importantly, take a look at what Build With Robots has been up to.
This was a big year for BWR, starting with the launch of Breezy Blue and ending with sharing prototypes of our next product at tradeshows (keep your eye out for more info!). Our disinfection products are now available across the US thanks to our wonderful partners and manufacturer's reps that we've met this year. Breezy Blue has entered plenty of new spaces, such as emergency services centers, medical facilities, residential cleaning, and more.
Additionally, this has been a year of learning. BWR has been automating aerosolized hydrogen peroxide for disinfection for years, and after conducting more in-house efficacy testing, protocols for fogging have been improved and better informed. This research has also propelled BWR towards its next product in the Breezy line - but let's not get too ahead of ourselves.
Here are the Top Ten BWR blog articles to sum up 2023 (in no particular order):
