Robotic underfloor insulation solutions for energy efficient homes

About us

Q-Bot develops intelligent tools using robotics and AI that can inspect, monitor and maintain the health of our buildings and infrastructure. Q-Bot’s mission is to transform the built environment with robotics and AI to become a global leader in construction innovation. Initial research efforts developed a method of applying of under floor insulation using a robotic device that has now been successfully commercialised. The solutions developed by Q-Bot have a number of benefits: • They empower operators, making them safer and more productive. • They allow quicker and more effective execution of tasks. • They create buildings that are energy efficient, cheaper to run, and much more comfortable. As a result of this work Q-Bot has developed a number of exciting robotic and AI technologies which can be deployed across a range of applications. They include robotic vehicles, advanced manufacturing and 3D printing techniques, control routines for autonomous localisation and navigation, 3D mapping of environments with automatic categorisation of features, as well as tools to manage the installation process and data collected. “Q-Bot was established to use the full potential of technology to address the opportunity that we could see existed in the built environment. Advances in robotics and AI meant processes that in some cases hadn’t changed in hundreds of years could now be done quicker, safer and to a measurable quality. Using robots to install underfloor insulation was the starting point on this journey.” – Mathew Holloway, CEO The company has a growing team of over 40 employees in offices in London and Newcastle. Q-Bot is run by an experienced management team with an entrepreneurial track record, project management expertise and unique blend of robotics and building know how. The company’s employees are a unique blend of engineers with Masters and PhDs in Science or Engineering and professionals with decades of practical experience in construction.

    PRESS RELEASE: E.ON and Q-Bot team up to use robotics and AI to help insulate Britain’s homes Leading energy and solutions provider E.ON and construction tech firm Q-Bot Ltd are joining forces to help insulate Britain’s homes – using the power of robotics and AI. The companies are working in partnership with the government under the Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS) to offer an average of £1,3771 in funding for Q-Bot to install ground-breaking underfloor insulation in qualifying homes across the UK. Alexis Keel, E.ON UK’s Head of Obligation Delivery , said: “Improved insulation makes for more comfortable homes and healthier residents, and we’re proud to work with Q-Bot to help make this a reality for even more people across the country. Q-Bot’s unique approach mirrors our own ambition to create a new energy world where affordability, innovation and sustainability go hand-in-hand as we work to meet the nation’s net zero goals.” Leigh Fairbrother, Q-Bot’s Head of Commercial, said: “We are delighted to be working with E.ON to help improve the energy efficiency of homes across the country. We already install our floor insulation in more than 100 British homes every month and together with E.ON, we can help in the delivery of the Government’s insulation policy and fuel poverty agenda and improve the fabric of the country’s housing stock, especially in the social housing sector. Importantly, , our insulation can make homes healthier, by reducing the risk of damp and mould, as well as making a positive impact on comfort for people up and down the country.” About the E.ON and Q-Bot scheme The first phase of the E.ON Next and Q-Bot GBIS partnership will run in the North East and the South East of England, South Wales and London. If successful, the scheme could extend across England, Scotland and Wales over the next two years. GBIS forms part of the broader energy efficiency programme which it delivers under the auspices of OFGEM’s Energy Company Obligation (ECO), a requirement for all large energy suppliers. E.ON and Q-Bot hope to insulate hundreds of homes as part of the scheme, as either a single energy efficiency measure or part of a comprehensive energy efficiency upgrade of a home. https://lnkd.in/eERs-vT6

(...and how we can help!) We would love to speak with you all more regarding the subjects above, and promise we have not been ignoring you - it has been a wonderful period of learning and growing! So, get in touch by direct messaging us here, or reaching out to Leigh Fairbrother, Alexis King, Tim Glew, Craig Nickeas, Janhavi Jadhav!

    Happy Friday friends and colleagues! I'd like to start with 'a beautiful bright day in Finchley', but alas, British summertime strikes again 🌧. Luckily, I was on the way to Join Dr. Zainab D., Abigail P. and co, at the Wates Group Student Work Experience day, on site on the absolutely breathtaking 'The Bishops Ave, N2'. We were joined by students from Finchley Catholic High School, who were learning about sustainability, the built environment, innovation, technology and Net Zero. Q-Bot Ltd is of course a natural fit in this space, and the students were extremely happy to hear more about what do, and how we use technology and innovation to install insulation in homes. They were very impressed with the tech, and the Q&A segment was more in-depth than some of my client presentations! Good questions gents, love to hear them! The lads will be coming to Q-Bot Ltd HQ in the coming months to see the production line, and to find out more about how our amazing Robots are put together 🔧. I doubt we would ever struggle to attract young people in to the industry! 🎮 Have a lovely weekend all, and keep an eye out for more from Q-Bot Ltd and Wates Group in the coming months 😉. Cheers! 🤖 🏠 ♻️
