India-based Hyper Lychee launches Skadu, a hand-held rotating electric scrubber with an aim to revolutionize cleaning methods and make it more effortless and effective.
This innovative design has been awarded a 2021 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Scrubbing clean is one of the most hated household chores, and it eats up a huge amount of time.
Skadu is a powerful hand-held electric tool, housing a high torque motor. It cleanses with three scrubber disks rotating in opposite directions.
This creates a multiplier effect, drastically increasing scrubbing efficiency and allowing for effortless and speedy cleaning of stuck-up grime.
Skadu also comes with a set of attachments for diverse tasks such as the brush attachment for bottles and glasses and the copper scrubber for burnt stuck-on food on your BBQ grills and baking trays.
Hyper Lychee’s founding brothers Hannan Hakim and Juzer Saleem started working on the idea in 2017, after visiting Hannan’s great uncle and aunt, who reported facing great difficulties scrubbing clean by hand.
This gave the impulse to engineer a hand-held electric power scrubber and gave way to the discovery of the extraordinary effect of a triple head scrubber system.
“Coming back from visiting my relatives, we realised what a game changer effortless scrubbing would be for all of us,” said Hannan Hakim, Co-Founder at Hyper Lychee.
“So, we developed Skadu to enable its user to scrub clean effortlessly, more efficiently, and much faster at the same time.”
