KTV Working Drone Germany recently carried out work at the STRABAG headquarters in Vienna, demonstrating how drone-assisted facade and window cleaning can be performed safely and efficiently, also under more demanding conditions.

The work was performed in windy weather, where the drone remained stable throughout the operation. This clearly showed the strength of KTV Working Drone’s technology and how drone-based cleaning can reduce the need for traditional access methods such as lifts, scaffolding or rope access.

For the assignment, heated water filtered by reverse osmosis was used, without additional cleaning agents. This is an efficient and environmentally considerate method that gives a strong cleaning result while reducing unnecessary chemical use.

Drone-assisted cleaning is especially suitable for large buildings and complex facades where safety, efficiency and minimal disruption are important. By using KTV Working Drone, work at height can be carried out with reduced risk, better control and a more streamlined process.

We would like to thank STRABAG Property and Facility Services Unternehmensgruppe for the trust and for the pleasant cooperation.

Public sector procurement in Norway is setting a new standard for facade and window maintenance.

In a recent multi-year public tender covering a large portfolio of municipal buildings, drone-based operations were not just an advantage – they were a prerequisite to deliver on requirements related to safety, accessibility, efficiency and environmental performance.

KTV Working Drone’s Norwegian partner, KTV Group, has been awarded the contract based on a solution built around KTV Working Drone technology and the Bluetag documentation platform.

This reflects a broader structural shift in the industry:

Public clients are moving toward solutions that combine technology, traceability and sustainability as core delivery requirements, not add-ons.

KTV Working Drone is positioned for this development.

The system is built on sensor-based control technology that maintains precise distance to the facade, enabling stable and consistent operations across complex building structures. This ensures predictable quality, higher operational safety and efficient ex*****on.

In addition, the solution includes patented roof safety systems designed for operations in dense urban environments, addressing one of the key risk factors in facade maintenance.

The KTV Power Cleaner system supports fully electric operations, delivering high-pressure and pure water cleaning without emissions during operation. Combined with minimal or no use of chemicals, this meets increasingly strict environmental expectations from public clients.

Bluetag provides full operational traceability. Every project is documented in real time through checklists, risk assessments, images and reporting. The system logs who performed the work, how it was executed and ensures full transparency for the client throughout the process.

In the evaluation, the solution achieved top score on ex*****on and organization, supported by structured methods, strong HSE processes and documented operational capacity. The environmental solution, based on emission-free operations and cleaning without chemicals, was also highlighted as highly favorable.

KTV Working Drone is today operating in 67 countries. Developments in Norway indicate a clear direction for international markets: technology-driven, documented and sustainable delivery models are becoming the new baseline for professional building maintenance.

This is not a trend. It is a shift in how the industry will operate going forward.

This week KTV Working Drone carried out window cleaning at Bergen Airport in Norway. The location represents one of the most demanding environments for this type of cleaning operation.

The operation had to be completed within a three hour night window, during which 2,500 m² of glass façade had to be cleaned.

The site presents challenging operating conditions. The terminal area acts as a wind tunnel, while the metal roof structure significantly limits GPS signals. In addition, signal interference and complex RF environments make drone operations technically demanding in this type of infrastructure.

To handle these conditions, the operation was performed using the new DJI M400 platform integrated with sensors and software developed by KTV Working Drone. The mission was completed with high precision and without technical issues.

This capability is the result of continued collaboration between KTV and DJI, focusing on solving operational challenges in complex environments such as airports, industrial facilities and other locations with demanding signal conditions.

The glass surfaces at Bergen Airport also represent a significant cleaning challenge. The level of contamination is very high, and previous manual cleaning operations using rope access teams have taken several weeks without achieving the desired level of cleanliness.

Through continuous development of new cleaning methods, KTV Working Drone has developed techniques capable of handling extreme contamination conditions. For this project, the new KTV Window Facade+ chemistry was used with very good results.

An important milestone is that even heavily contaminated windows, which previously could not be cleaned effectively using drone technology, can now be restored with very good results.

Another important advantage is that the system does not involve mechanical contact with the glass during cleaning. This eliminates the risk of scratches and surface damage, which can often occur with traditional manual cleaning methods.

Conclusion.
The experience from this project confirms that the technology is now mature enough to operate in some of the most demanding environments and cleaning operations within this type of work.

When comparing where the technology stood in 2020 with the first generation systems to where it is today in 2026, the difference is significant.
