Featuring advanced FlowWash Mopping System, Twin-AI Dodge Obstacle Avoidance, and CarpetFocus Technology for next-level cleaning performance and intelligent automation.
NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Narwal, a global leader in smart home cleaning technology, announces the official launch of its flagship innovation, the Narwal Flow, available to consumers on August 7, 2025. Building on its legacy of award-winning, user-focused design, Narwal Flow sets a new benchmark for autonomous home cleaning by combining next-generation AI, powerful cleaning performance, and true maintenance-free convenience.
Unveiled to acclaim at CES 2025, Narwal Flow is engineered for households seeking the highest standards of cleanliness with minimal effort. This all-in-one robot vacuum and mop introduces industry-first features and advanced automation for a truly effortless clean. Since its CES debut, Narwal has actively recruited beta users and industry professionals to test the product in real-world scenarios. Incorporating their valuable feedback, the company has continuously refined the Flow's performance and stability—culminating in a powerful, polished product ready for launch.
Key Features of the Narwal Flow:
- FlowWash Mopping System with EdgeReach™ Technology:
Real-time, self-cleaning track mop design with dual water tanks circulates 113°F fresh water while collecting dirty water, keeping the mop clean throughout every cycle. Combined with a constant 12N pressure, this design delivers outstanding mopping performance often with just a single pass. - Twin-AI Dodge Obstacle Avoidance: Equipped with dual 136° ultra-wide RGB cameras and an AI chip, the Flow recognizes over 200 types of objects (including cable, pet poop, socks, plastic bags, etc) in real-time, and avoids them with 5mm precision.
- CarpetFocus Technology: A solution tailored for carpet cleaning. Narwal Flow delivers powerful cleaning performance with suction reaching up to 22000 Pa. When a carpet is detected, the adaptive brush cover automatically lowers to create a sealed, high-pressure airflow zone, significantly boosting suction and extracting deeply embedded dust and hair. The robot also lifts its mop to keep carpets dry and uses a dual-pass zigzag cleaning path for thorough results. This innovative design boosts suction power by up to 182% and doubles the pick-up rate on carpets.
- Full coverage cleaning: EdgeReach™ technology enables the mop to clean within just 0.19 inches of walls and corners for complete edge coverage. When tackling corners, its side brush intelligently reverses rotation, extending movable bristles to widen the cleaning diameter to reach the corner. A 1.6-inch (4 cm) obstacle-crossing allows the robot to navigate thresholds, table legs, and other tricky obstacles with ease. While a 3.7-inch (9.4 cm) ultra-slim robot easily navigates under beds, sofas, and other low-clearance areas for a more complete clean. The Flow delivers unparalleled cleaning performance—from edges to corners.
- DualFlow Tangle-Free System: The system virtually eliminates hair tangles with an SGS-certified 0% tangling floating roller brush and dynamic auto-detangling side brushes. Dynamic bristle designs for side brushes, along with a single floating arm roller brush and optimal 50° angle, ensure effortless cleaning and maintenance.
- All-in-One Multifunction Base: The 8-in-1 base automates dust emptying, AI adaptive hot-water mop washing (adjusting water temperature from 113°F to 176°F for sterilization) and hot-air drying. The dustbin lasts up to 120 days. Flow Series models are available with an optional refill and drainage dock variant that connects to home drainage systems to automatically refill and empty the robot cleaner, with 11-inch-tall base, the compact version fits easily in tight spaces.
- Smart Voice and Home Integration: The built-in voice assistant ("Hey Nawa") enables hands-free cleaning and setting adjustments. The Flow is compatible with Alexa, Google Home, and Siri, with Matter support coming by the end of the year for seamless smart home integration.

Narwal Flow Debuts: Advanced Self-Clean Track-Mopping AI Robot Vacuum
ANSHUN, China, May 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 21, at the Guizhou Anshun Tourism Development Conference, Mafengwo Travel Group officially launched three flagship "New Mountain Play" benchmark projects — Huangheying Water Cave, Lotus Ancient Cave, and Luoyang Glasswater Gorge — while jointly releasing the 2026 Anshun Mountain Outdoor New Play Playbook with the Anshun Municipal Bureau of Culture, Sports, Radio, TV and Tourism. By redefining mountain outdoor travel experiences through "new play," the initiative injects fresh momentum into Anshun's positioning as an international mountain tourism destination.
"Personalized travel is rising rapidly. Tourism is transitioning from a 'sightseeing economy' to an 'experience economy.' More than just 'having been there,' travelers today seek emotional value from scenic spots and related projects," said Chen Gang, Founder and CEO of Mafengwo, in a speech titled *Co-creating the Super Play Era of Mountain Tourism*. He noted that leveraging benchmark new-play projects such as Huangheying Water Cave, Lotus Ancient Cave, and Luoyang Glasswater Gorge, Mafengwo will work with Anshun to integrate "new play, new formats, new marketing, and new consumption" into a holistic innovation ecosystem for destination-wide play. Together, they aim to revitalize natural resources, energize industrial momentum, link rural revitalization, and jointly build Anshun into a national hub for new mountain play.
At a time when travelers are increasingly weary of "man-made check-in spots" and homogenized internet-famous projects, the newly launched projects abandon the old path of large-scale construction. Instead, they return to the wild itself, adopting a "light development, heavy experience" approach to create mountain plays that are "wild on the outside, refined on the inside." Huangheying Water Cave focuses on "natural wonders + interactive adventure," using its original "water-cave" karst features to create a genuine sense of "underground exploration." Lotus Ancient Cave, based on a massive natural cave, integrates "light ultimate" activities such as via ferrata, rappelling, and cave drop towers, allowing ordinary visitors to feel adrenaline-pumping "heart-racing moments" in a natural setting. Luoyang Glasswater Gorge follows the original river course, using natural elevation differences to design trails for hiking, canyoning, and waterfall rappelling, with minimal artificial construction, emphasizing the pristine "glass water" and an eco-harmonious, back-to-nature mountain experience.
At the "2026 Anshun Mountain Tourism New Play" sharing session, Mafengwo Travel Group and the Anshun Municipal Bureau of Culture, Sports, Radio, TV and Tourism jointly released the *2026 Anshun Mountain Outdoor New Play Playbook*. Ten selected plays in non-traditional mountain settings were featured, including "Night Tour of Dupo Tang — Immersive Journey into the World of Journey to the West," "Watch Intangible Cultural Heritage 'Spider-Man' Climb Cliffs for Bird's Nests," and "370-Meter Free Fall at Balinghe Bridge." These showcase how Anshun creatively uses its karst landscapes as a natural "amusement park" for mountain experiences.
He Weihong, Vice Mayor of Anshun, stated in his address: "In Anshun, the 'City of 21°C,' mountains are no longer just scenery to be viewed. They are living fields to be climbed, immersed in, jumped over, and breathed in. Anshun will take this conference as an opportunity to accelerate the internationalization of its mountain tourism and build a first-class mountain outdoor sports destination." During the event, Anshun Tourism Group also promoted its mountain outdoor travel routes.
By early 2026, the number of outdoor sports participants in China had exceeded 400 million, with participation in mountain hiking, trail running, rock climbing, and canyoning rising year by year. Driven by the dual trends of "nationwide fitness" and "pan-outdoor" activities, mountain play is moving from niche circles to the general public. Unlike the high barriers of traditional outdoor activities, Anshun's new plays target the blue ocean market of "light ultimate + strong experience + high shareability." Whether it's a "bridge bungee jump," checking out the natural wonder "Eye of the Great Sage," or experiencing a "Journey to the West fantasy" at night by Dupo Tang Waterfall — these activities are novel, beginner-friendly, and serve as natural content and social currency.
Anshun's mountain play innovation has also attracted international attention. Anouar, Chief Representative of the Tunisian National Tourism Office in China, noted in his speech that Anshun's innovation in integrating mountain tourism and sports is worth learning from for many international peers. He noted that Tunisia has diverse mountain resources across the country, with history embedded in the mountains and culture in the scenery — this is the unique charm of Tunisia's mountains. He looks forward to China-Tunisia cooperation to explore more mountain tourism opportunities and co-create new partnership models.
An international dialogue session brought together representatives from the Norwegian National Tourist Board, Visit Flanders (Belgium), and the Saudi Tourism Authority to discuss mountain outdoor tourism upgrade from a global perspective. The guests agreed that they were delighted to see that Anshun is not simply replicating a "Switzerland of the East" but is creating an entirely new "universal language of mountain tourism." The internationalization of mountain tourism is not about imitation but about excavating the unique narratives of local landscapes — with its green mountains and clear waters as the canvas and play innovation as the brush, Anshun is painting a vibrant new picture for the world.
A domestic dialogue session brought together frontier explorers, practitioners, and experts in mountain sports tourism to discuss the future development of mountain sports tourism from the perspectives of communities, products, and operations. Qin Chuan, Founder of Wanan Youth Travel, noted that with technological advancements and equipment iteration, more and more "outdoor novices" without professional training can enjoy the pleasures of the wild. Currently, Wanan Youth Travel is selecting and developing "super single products" and continuously improving service quality to deliver ultimate outdoor experiences to visitors.
After the conference, industry guests conducted on-site inspections of new play projects, including Lotus Ancient Cave, Dupo Tang Night Tour, Anshun Ancient Town, and Getu River. Wang Yu, Chief Representative of the Norwegian National Tourist Board in Greater China, remarked: "Anshun and Norway share many similarities. Anshun's new mountain plays emphasize 'light development, heavy experience.' Take Lotus Ancient Cave — it doesn't feel like a 'designed' scenic spot, but rather an extension of Anshun's natural mountain charm itself, an experiential field you can fully immerse yourself in. The scale of this 'light ultimate' experience is just right — thrilling enough, yet truly authentic."
