What is the BeBot?

BeBots are beach screening robots that screen sand 1-4" below the surface. They were created in France by Searial Cleaners.

​

These robots screen sand for debris including microplastics that are not readily visible to the human eye. Fully controlled by a handheld remote, with a human always present with the robot. 

 

They are 100% electric & emit no harmful gasses, greenhouse or otherwise.

What does a BeBot do?

A BeBot targets waste & debris that sit below the sands surface- the discarded waste not visible just walking on the sand.These particles are sifted and collected.

 

This machine generates a considerable amount of awareness of its purpose, and interest from beach-goers, prompting questions from adults, and children.
