ECOVACS Expands Its Award-Winning OZMO™ Roller Mop Series with X9 PRO OMNI and T80 OMNI
SAN MATEO, Calif., May 13, 2025 /CNW/ -- ECOVACS, a global leader in robotic home cleaning, is expanding its award-winning OZMO™ Roller Mop technology with the launch of two new DEEBOTs: the T80 OMNI and the X9 PRO OMNI, available now for purchase. Together, these next-generation models bring real-time self-washing, high-pressure mopping, and powerful automation to more homes—reaffirming ECOVACS' commitment to setting a new standard in hygienic, hands-free floor care. To celebrate the launch, both models will be available for a limited-time discount, up to $300 off, through May 19.
Traditional mops reuse dirty water, spreading grime and bacteria across your floors. The OZMO™ Roller Mop was designed to solve that—delivering 16x more pressure than typical mop pads while continuously self-washing in real time. With separate clean and dirty water tanks built into the robot, the system refreshes the mop with clean water on the go while isolating dirty water. First introduced in the DEEBOT X8 PRO OMNI, this industry-first technology now powers the new X9 PRO OMNI and T80 OMNI, bringing next-level hygiene, performance, and convenience to more households than ever before.
"At ECOVACS, we are redefining what it means to truly clean your floors," said David Qian, Vice Chairman of ECOVACS Group and CEO of ECOVACS ROBOTICS. "With OZMO™ Roller Mop technology, we're addressing the hygiene gaps traditional mops leave behind—while innovations like BLAST™ suction and ZeroTangle™ 3.0 take performance and convenience to the next level. We're proud to deliver the most advanced RVC experience yet and truly raise the standards not only for DEEBOTs, but for the entire industry."
DEEBOT X9 PRO OMNI: The Ultimate Deep-Cleaning Powerhouse
The X9 PRO OMNI integrates two of ECOVACS' breakthrough innovations—OZMO™ Roller Mop and the BLAST™ vacuuming technology—into one high-performance DEEBOT. This makes the X9 PRO OMNI ECOVACS' most advanced all-in-one cleaning solution, designed for unmatched vacuuming and mopping performance in a single device.
The X9 PRO OMNI debuts ECOVACS' most hygienic design yet—with a real-time self-washing mop, mop-lifting for carpets, and a first-of-its-kind lifting main and side brush that raises bristles when wet messes are detected. This intelligent lifting system helps prevent streaking, contamination, and scattered mess, ensuring spotless, hygienic results on every surface.
Unlike most robot vacuums that rely on suction power alone, ECOVACS takes vacuuming performance a step further with BLAST™ (Boosted Large-Airflow Suction Technology). This next-gen system optimizes the entire airflow path—from intake to exhaust—with a 100W high-torque motor, wider air inlet, and precision-engineered fan blades that work together to deliver powerful yet whisper-quiet suction across all surfaces. BLAST™ is powered by ECOVACS' proprietary SuperBoost battery, delivering 50% higher discharge current, 2.5x longer lifespan, and reduced heat output. The result is consistent, high-performance cleaning that holds up across large floorplans and demanding messes—no drop in power, no disruption.
Paired with the upgraded ZeroTangle™ 3.0 system—featuring a cyclone-directed main brush and inward-curved side brush to eliminate hair wrap—the X9 PRO OMNI delivers powerful, maintenance-free vacuuming for households with pets, kids, and everything in between.
Edge-to-edge cleaning is handled by TruEdge™ 2.0 3D edge sensing and an extending mop and side brush for deep cleaning in corners and along walls. Combined with advanced AI navigation and the fully automated OMNI Station—which washes and dries the mop with 145°F hot air to prevent bacteria growth—the X9 PRO OMNI offers the most hands-free and hygienic experience to date.
T80 OMNI: Elevated Everyday Cleaning
The T80 OMNI is the first mid-range DEEBOT to feature ECOVACS' award-winning OZMO™ Roller Mop, making real-time self-washing and high-pressure scrubbing more accessible than ever. With 16X more downward pressure than traditional mops and instant self-washing built into every pass, the T80 delivers a visibly deeper, more hygienic clean—no streaks, no grime, no bacteria spread.
Like its flagship sibling, the T80 OMNI includes ZeroTangle™ 3.0 for tangle-free vacuuming and stronger debris pickup, thanks to a redesigned cyclone-directed main brush and spiral side brush. It also features AI Instant Re-Mop, which automatically detects sticky messes and triggers targeted re-cleaning—ensuring the job is done right the first time, with no need for manual follow-up. For busy households, this means less oversight and more confidence in your clean.
Paired with the same OMNI Station for hands-free mop washing, hot air drying (113°F), and auto-refill, the T80 offers an ideal blend of power, hygiene, and convenience for everyday homes.
Pricing & Availability
The T80 OMNI is available now for $1,199 USD ($1,499 CAD) through Amazon and ECOVACS.com and the X9 PRO OMNI is available now for $1,599 USD ($1,999 CAD), through Amazon and ECOVACS.com.
To celebrate the launch, ECOVACS is offering a limited-time promotional price from May 13–19:
X9 PRO OMNI: $300 off the MSRP of $1,599.99—now available for $1,299.99 USD

Montfort Capital Announces Reinstatement of Trading on TSXV
TORONTO, July 18, 2025 /CNW/ - Montfort Capital Corp. (TSXV: MONT) (" Montfort" or the " Company") is pleased to announce that the TSX Venture Exchange (the " TSXV" or the " Exchange") has accepted its application for reinstatement of trading of the Company's common shares on the TSXV. This follows the successful resolution of the Failure-to-File Cease Trade Orders (collectively, the " FFCTO") issued by the Ontario Securities Commission (the " OSC") on May 7, 2025 and June 5, 2025, and revoked on May 28, 2025 and June 12, 2025, respectively. The Company expects its common shares to be reinstated for trading shortly. The FFCTO was issued as a result of the delay in the filing of the Company's annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the " Late Annual Financial Statements"). The delay in filing the annual financial statements had a cascading effect which caused the Company to also be late in filing its interim financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 (the " Late Interim Financial Statements" and together with the Late Annual Financial Statements, the " Late Financial Statements"). The Company filed the Late Annual Financial Statements on May 27, 2025 and filed the Late Interim Financial Statements on June 11, 2025, whereby the OSC automatically revoked the FFCTO. Upon the revocation of the FFCTO, the Company applied to the TSXV to have its Common Shares and Series A Class A Preferred Shares reinstated for trading. The Company acknowledges and appreciates the patience of its shareholders and stakeholders during this process and reaffirms its commitment to adhering to high standards of compliance and corporate governance. In addition to the announcement regarding the reinstatement of trading on the TSXV, the Company is providing an update on a number of matters, including the following: Related Party Loans Disclosure During the financial year ended December 31, 2023, lending subsidiaries of the Company issued unsecured demand promissory notes to Godsoe Financial Capital Corporation, an entity controlled by Michael Godsoe, former director and officer of Langhaus Financial Corporation, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,175,000 to fund their lending activities (the " 2023 Related Party Notes"). The 2023 Related Party Notes are due in September 30, 2025 and yield an interest rate of TD Prime Rate plus 125 basis points per annum. During the financial year ended December 31, 2024, the Company and lending subsidiaries of the Company issued unsecured demand promissory notes to certain directors and officers of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,450,000 to fund their loan book (the " 2024 Related Party Notes"). The 2024 Related Party Notes represent less than 1.0% of the total consolidated indebtedness of the Company. The 2024 Related Party Notes are payable within 180 days of demand and yield an interest rate between 8% to 12% per annum. During the six months June 30, 2025, lending subsidiaries of the Company issued additional unsecured demand promissory notes to a certain director of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds of $350,000 for additional funding to their loan book (the " 2025 Related Party Notes" and together with the 2023 Related Party Notes and 2024 Related Party Notes, the " Related Party Notes"). The 2025 Related Party Notes are payable within 180 days of demand and yield an interest rate of 8 to 12% per annum. The Related Party Notes remain subject to TSXV acceptance. Amended Pivot General Facility Pivot Financial I Limited Partnership (" Pivot LP") entered into a 2 nd amended and restated credit agreement (the " Amended Pivot General Facility") dated August 2, 2024 with Cortland Credit Lending Corporation, as lender, with the Company, 2862454 Ontario Inc., Brightpath Capital Corporation, Langhaus Financial Corporation and Langhaus Financial Partners Inc., each continuing to act as guarantors. The loan commitment under the Amended Pivot General Facility is $22.75 million and US$3.0 million. The purpose of the Amended Pivot General Facility was to extend the maturity date to April 30, 2025, which was further extended to June 30, 2025. Pivot LP is currently working towards another extension of the Amended Pivot General Facility with Cortland Credit Lending Corporation. The Amended Pivot General Facility remains subject to TSXV acceptance. At the end of March 2025, Pivot LP was in breach of the Amended Pivot General Facility by breaching a financial covenant that limits its total advances to certain borrowers to $16.5 million. On April 23, 2025, Pivot LP rectified this covenant breach after receiving a $2.5 million principal payment from a borrower subject to the financial covenant under the Amended Pivot General Facility. Incite Capital Markets Agreement On May 1, 2020, the Company engaged Incite Capital Markets Inc., an arm's length firm (" Incite") to assist with corporate awareness and investor relations, which included developing communications strategies for Montfort. Incite received a fee of $8,000 plus applicable taxes per month for fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022 and the monthly fee was increased to $9,000 plus applicable taxes commencing January 1, 2023. The Company terminated services with Incite effective March 1, 2024. Incite and its principals hold approximately 3.0% of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of the Company. The engagement of Incite to provide investor relations services to the Company remains subject to TSXV acceptance. Incite is a Vancouver-based capital markets advisory corporation.

Federal, Provincial and Territorial Ministers of Agriculture meet to help strengthen the resilience and competitiveness of the sector Français
OTTAWA, ON, July 18, 2025 /CNW/ - Yesterday, federal, provincial and territorial (FPT) Ministers of Agriculture met virtually to discuss ways to support a more resilient and competitive agriculture sector and food supply chains that make up Canada's agri-food landscape. Ministers discussed possible measures to support the hard-working producers and processors across Canada to address the emerging challenges related to international trade and the potential opportunities that could be created by increased interprovincial trade. Ministers reiterated their commitment to enhancing the effectiveness of business risk management (BRM) programs. Due to the uncertain trade environment and unfavourable climate conditions in parts of the country, Ministers agreed to take the necessary steps to implement a package of enhancements to the AgriStability program. For the 2025 program year only, the compensation rate will be increased from 80% to 90% and the maximum payment limit will be increased from $3 million to $6 million. These changes are meant to help producers manage the risks they face. In addition, for AgriStability, starting in the 2026 program year, provinces and territories will have the option to use a new inventory valuation method for inventories destined to be used on-farm. Ministers agreed to seek the necessary approvals to include feed costs associated with rented pasture as an allowable expense in advance of the 2026 program year, report back on progress at the September annual meeting and to continue a review of AgriStability allowable expenses. FPT Ministers are working together to increase interprovincial trade of food. Ministers discussed a variety of options, including ways to remove barriers to internal food trade and identify new trade opportunities. Ministers also discussed enhanced client service support from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) for small to medium-sized businesses wishing to market food products across Canada under a federal food licence, increasing slaughter capacity where possible in regions with restricted access to services, and allowing interprovincial trade of low-risk manufactured foods without a federal licence. These ideas will be informed by the two ongoing pilots on meat trade and slaughter that are being accelerated. These initiatives aim to support business growth and improve market access, while maintaining Canada's robust food safety system. FPT Ministers highlighted the critical importance of joint efforts across governments to maintain, expand and diversify international market access. In support of this work, Ministers discussed the federal Indo-Pacific Agriculture and Agri-Food Office and other resources in the region. Ministers also emphasized the importance of engaging with China at the highest level, to improve the overall trade relationship and to remove Chinese tariffs on Canadian agriculture and seafood products. Ministers also underscored the benefits of existing trade agreements and emphasized the importance of considering the impact of tariffs on businesses. The annual conference of FPT Ministers of Agriculture will take place in-person in Winnipeg, Manitoba September 7-9, 2025. Quotes "Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our farmers, ranchers and food processors across the country, we've earned a reputation for producing the best products in the world. By working together across governments, we can continue to strengthen the resilience and competitiveness of our sector, drive economic growth, and help to ensure Canadian products continue to lead on quality, safety, and sustainability." - The Honourable Heath MacDonald, federal Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food "The province of Manitoba strongly supports our agricultural producers, the backbone of the Manitoba economy. We remain committed to working with other levels of governments, private sector partners and other provinces to deliver programs that support food security, and sustainable practices to ensure the economic viability of farms. We will continue to work tirelessly to advocate for important programs that help producers manage environmental and market risks in a changing global political environment." - The Honourable Ron Kostyshyn, Manitoba Minister of Agriculture Quick facts Canada's global exports of agriculture and agri-food in 2024 overall was $92.2 billion in 2024, compared to $91.6 billion in 2023. In 2024, Canada exported nearly $100.3 billion globally in agri-food, fish and seafood products combined. In 2023, that number was $99.2 billion.
