Benefits of the KITE façade cleaning robot

Read about all the benefits the robot has to offer.

All the benefits of the façade cleaning robot summarised.

The KITE Facade Cleaning Robot offers numerous benefits that surpass traditional facade cleaning methods. From efficiency to safety, this robot is designed to make façade cleaning easier, faster and safer.

1. Efficient façade cleaning
The robot cleans quickly and thoroughly, resulting in time savings. Unlike manual work via a window cleaning machine, the façade is cleaned in one go, without interruptions.


2. Safe cleaning at height
There is no longer any need for people to work at height, in all weathers, standing from a window cleaning unit suspended from the façade. This significantly reduces the risk of workplace accidents. The robot does all the work, ensuring a safe cleaning and working environment.


3. No visual disturbance
Thanks to the compact mounting system, nothing is visible of the robot and cables when not in use. This ensures that the façade is not visually affected and looks neat when the robot is not in use. With window washing systems, you often see the installations and taps on the roof. This is not the case with Kite.


 

4. Cost-saving façade cleaning
The KITE robot offers a cost-effective solution by significantly reducing the operational costs (OPEX) of façade cleaning. Compared to manual cleaning, which requires window washers and a window cleaning system, using the robot is much more efficient and cheaper. The operational costs of traditional methods, such as using window washers in a window washing plant, are significantly higher than those of the robot. The robot can save an averages around 80% in opex costs.
Besides lower operating costs, capital expenditure (CAPEX) is also lower. Traditional window washing systems often require structural modifications to the building, such as reinforcements to support the system.


 

5. Suitable for various façade materials
The robot is suitable for all kinds of façade materials such as glass, aluminium, stone, plastic and more. This makes it suitable for a wide range of façade materials and building types, from modern to classic buildings.


6. Easy installation and removal
Mounting the robot is quick and easy. The robot calibrates itself and starts cleaning automatically. Once cleaning is complete, the robot can be easily disconnected and stored.


7. Suitable for various heights
The robot can clean facades from 15 to 200 metres high and is suitable for vertical, sloping and even circular facades. This makes the system flexible and applicable to different types of buildings.

8. Sustainability and environmental friendly
The KITE façade cleaning robot uses less water and cleaning products, which is both cost-saving and environmentally friendly. Moreover, roofs can be optimally used for solar panels.
In addition, using the KITE façade cleaning robot contributes to achieving sustainability and health standards, such as BREEAM and WELL. BREEAM certification indicates that a building meets high environmental performance, while WELL focuses on creating healthy and safe working and living environments.
Using this innovative robot supports organizations in obtaining or maintaining these certifications. This not only increases property value and attractiveness to tenants and investors, but also contributes to a more sustainable and healthier built environment.


9. Flexibility and customisation
The robot is adaptable to different façade types, such as atriums with complex roofs. This makes the system suitable for both commercial and residential buildings with different designs.
