Hizero Wins Three Major IFA 2026 Honours as Global Leader in No-Suction Hard-Surface Cleaning

BERLIN, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hizero, the global leader in no-suction hard-surface cleaning appliances, has received three major independent honors at IFA 2026 in Berlin. The recognition celebrates the company's leadership in creating a smarter alternative to traditional hard-floor cleaning using noisy vacuum technology.

At the center of the awards is Hizero's latest hero product: the Glide (R700), its first autonomous robot floor cleaner. The Glide was named a 2026 IFA Innovation Award Honoree in the Best in Smart Home category, achieved the AH Best of IFA 2026 Award, and received the Digital Trends Publisher Award – IFA 2026 Innovation Winner.

One product. Three major recognitions. A true three-in-one result.

The awards underline Hizero's belief that hard floors and surfaces can be cleaned intelligently and effectively without suction. The company's message at IFA is direct: WE DON'T SUCK.

Hizero used IFA to unveil its broadest range of hard-surface cleaning products to date. The line-up includes the Glide, manual mops and other hard-floor appliances, all harnessing the Hizero signature polymer-roller technology. The system collects solid debris and manages liquid messes in the same cleaning process.

Hizero says it is not seeking to replace vacuum cleaners altogether. Carpets still need suction. But on hard floors, many households still follow a time-consuming two-step routine: sweep or vacuum first, then mop to deal with spills and dirt. Hizero is built to simplify that experience.

Its no-suction technology separates solid debris from liquid waste while cleaning, helping users manage crumbs, pet messes, spills and everyday dirt in one pass. For busy kitchens, dining rooms and hard-floor living spaces, it offers a practical alternative to the traditional mop-and-bucket routine.

"I am grateful to receive these awards and delighted that our team's years of hard work in creating a new approach to hard-surface cleaning are now being recognised in the highly competitive environment of one of the world's top-notch innovation-led tare shows," said Sam Li, CEO and founder of Hizero. "We are not against vacuuming. We are solving cleaning problems that vacuums and traditional mops cannot fix on hard floors. Our goal is smart innovation that gives people more time to enjoy living and less time cleaning."

The Glide brings Hizero's cleaning technology into autonomous floor care. It works without an app connection, making it accessible to older consumers and anyone who prefers straightforward appliances. Its automatic maintenance cycle keeps the polymer roller wet, clean and ready for use.

With traditional mops and vacuum cleaners still central to most homes, Hizero sees significant global room to grow. At IFA 2026, the company is making its case for a smarter hard-floor routine: less preparation, less hassle and more time for life.
