Case Study: Wisson's Aerial Tethered Cleaning Solution Revitalizes Shenzhen Landmark Building

Background

Shenzhen is one of the four major cities in China and a key research and manufacturing hub for high-tech industries in the southern region. It is often referred to as the "Silicon Valley of China." The client's high-end commercial building is located in a bustling business district of Shenzhen, standing at 184 meters (603 ft) with 43 floors and tens of thousands of square meters of curtain wall, is a landmark in the area. The frequent rainy weather has led to mold and dirt accumulation on the building's exterior, severely affecting its appearance. The complex structure and narrow spaces of the high floors make traditional manual cleaning inefficient and risky. To maintain the building’s prestigious image, ensure tenant satisfaction, and support leasing business, the building management sought an efficient and safe exterior cleaning solution.

Risk of High-altitude Work: Traditional manual high-altitude cleaning methods require workers to be suspended at heights, posing significant safety risks despite stringent qualification and experience requirements.
Difficulty Cleaning Complex Structures: The building's intricate facade and numerous narrow spaces make it difficult for traditional methods to thoroughly clean, especially in corners and crevices.
Weather Impact: Continuous rainy weather fosters mold and dirt growth on the exterior walls, necessitating frequent cleaning. Traditional methods are time-consuming and difficult to deploy quickly.
High Labor Costs: Manual cleaning requires substantial manpower, leading to high costs and low efficiency, making it challenging to complete large-scale cleaning quickly.

Solution

The building management collaborated with Wisson’s team for a three-day site survey, using drones to capture the overall dirt condition, and decided to use the Wisson Orion AP3-P3 Pliabot® Aerial Tethered Cleaning System and a specialized foam cleaner for mold. This system, suitable for drones with a 3-10kg (6-22lbs) load, provides high-pressure quick cleaning at 600㎡ (6,458 ft²) per hour with 13MPa pressure and supports continuous water supply, ensuring long-term operation. It is designed to handle complex high-altitude cleaning tasks like building facades, photovoltaic panels, and insulators safely, replacing manual high-altitude work. Integrated with drone's flight system, it allows single-person integrated control, offering a convenient and efficient cleaning solution.


Efficiency
  • Continuous Operation: Supports tethered water supply without tank capacity limitations, enabling prolonged cleaning operations.

  • High-Pressure Cleaning: 13MPa maximum pressure quickly removes stubborn stains, and the 600㎡ (6,458 ft²) per hour cleaning speed significantly boosts efficiency.

  • Quick Deployment: Compact size, easy transport and storage, and slide-in interface design enable deployment in just 1 minute.

Safety
