The RopeClimber: a new approach to Façade Cleaning

When it comes to façade access and cleaning, efficiency and accessibility are prevalent. Today, there exist two methods: hiring rope access specialists for precision work, albeit at a steep cost, or opting for a cheaper solution with cleaners operating from suspended platforms, with limited reach on narrow surfaces and intricate architectural designs.

Enter the RopeClimber.

The RopeClimber isn't just a solution; this power-ascender lifts both cost and access issue at once. Developed to democratize access to façade cleaning, this battery-driven hoisting device boasts simplicity, versatility, and safety as its hallmarks. With up to 8 consecutive hours of autonomy and compliance with the rigorous EN1808:2015 standard, the RopeClimber offers an ingenious alternative.

More than just a cradle, the RopeClimber shakes up traditional approaches to façade cleaning. Its lightweight design, about half the weight of a regular cradle make maneuverability effortless on ground and in air. Its textile wires render set up easy and fast, eliminating the need for lengthy, heavy power cables or complex steel cables inherent to other gondolas. With intuitive controls and built-in safety features, this building maintenance unit is accessible to anyone without specialized certification.

But the RopeClimber is not limited to swingstage applications alone. It can be suspended on davit arms to offer adaptability in the form of the RopeClimber BackPack, a portable option ideal for navigating narrow spaces, easy to handle with its only 36kg. Equipped on the back of the user and combined with a seat, it makes for a comfortable device to work in suspension. For extended work periods, the RopeClimber StandSit option provides ergonomic relief, allowing users to alternate between standing and sitting positions while remaining stable in air.

Whether as a cradle or backpack, all RopeClimber variants share a common thread of user-friendliness, rapid setup, and reliable performance. Perfectly suited for buildings up to 40 meters, the RopeClimber sets a new standard in façade cleaning technology, promising efficiency without compromise.
