Façade Cleaning Robots

The use of robotics technology has overcome the dangerous and time consuming nature of cleaning works, especially that of façade cleaning. Cleaning systems can be specially designed and built to tailor to the specific requirements, such as the surface and geometry of a façade.

The advantages of utilising cleaning robots for facades include:

  1. Complete system for automatic façade cleaning.
  2. Low operating costs with no personnel costs.
  3. Constant availability that enhances flexible cleaning cycles, cleaning of especially dirty façade areas or cleaning on demand.
  4. Usable on various types of facades.
  5. Secure movement without guide rails on the façade.
  6. Easy to operate.
  7. Efficient, economical and ecological cleaning if recycled water is used.
  8. Short cleaning times for large surfaces.
