Circus SE (WKN: A2YN35 / ISIN: DE000A2YN355 / XETRA: CA1), a global leader in AI software and robotics for autonomous sustainment systems, has received full regulatory certification to operate and import its autonomous robotic systems into the United Arab Emirates. The certification, issued under the Emirates Conformity Assessment Scheme (ECAS) by the UAE Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology, makes Circus the currently only certified provider of fully autonomous AI robotic sustainment systems in the region.
The ECAS certification, verified by TUV SUD and compliant with UAE RoHS standards, clears Circus to deploy and commercially scale its CA-1 Series 4 AI-robotic food production systems across the United Arab Emirates. The first systems are planned to go live in Abu Dhabi this September, with Dubai to follow shortly after. This certification is a significant milestone as it is the first time Circus has been certified outside the European continent, where it already operates across multiple countries.
The UAE market represents a substantial commercial growth opportunity for Circus. Beyond large-scale infrastructure and commercial applications, the company is uniquely positioned to integrate directly into high-rise residential and office developments, offering a fully autonomous, on-site integrated food supply solution at scale. Nikolas Bullwinkel, CEO and Founder of Circus, stated, "The UAE market entry marks our first certified presence outside the European continent, where we are already operating across multiple countries. The Gulf is one of the most dynamic and capital-rich markets in the world – with a density of high-rise residential towers, corporate campuses, and large-scale infrastructure that is almost purpose-built for what we have developed. We offer the first fully certified autonomous sustainment system in the region, and we intend to build on that lead aggressively."
The company is already working with contracted distribution partners in the region to build out a dominant local presence and sales pipeline, marking the UAE and the entire Gulf region as one of their most significant growth regions outside Europe over the medium term. This regulatory certification not only validates Circus's technology but also opens a new, high-potential market for its autonomous food production systems. The ability to deploy these systems in high-rise residential and commercial developments could transform urban food supply chains, offering a scalable solution for dense urban environments. The implications are broad: from reducing reliance on traditional food logistics to providing autonomous, on-demand meal production in areas where space and labor are at a premium. As the first certified provider in the region, Circus has a first-mover advantage that could be pivotal in capturing market share in the rapidly growing Gulf economies.
