🚁 Tech that’s turning heads at Townsville University Hospital!

We were proud to see FAMASO and our drone cleaning technology featured in Townsville Hospital and Health Service’s latest publication (Page 16) — highlighting how innovation is helping improve safety and efficiency at the Townsville Cancer Centre.

Our KTV Working Drone was recently trialed on-site to clean external facades and windows — eliminating the need for scaffolding, EWPs, or rope access in high-risk zones.

Another successful project wrapped up in the heart of Melbourne City.

These projects go beyond great ex*****on — they require seamless collaboration with our clients, local councils, traffic management teams, EWP providers, and precise coordination from start to finish by our FAMASO management, supervisors and technicians.

Shoutout to Claudio Trifirò, Diego Valencia, and the entire FAMASO team for ensuring the project was completed on time and exceeded client expectations.

If you're managing a site that involves high-risk work licences, Yellow Cards (EWP under 11m), or working at heights, reach out — our team is ready to support you every step of the way.

Celebrating Women in Rope Access: Negin Afshar Achieves IRATA Level 3

A huge congratulations to Negin Afshar, who has just achieved her IRATA Level 3 — the highest level of certification in rope access!

Negin began her rope journey with FAMASO as a Level 1 and has steadily progressed through to become a fully qualified Level 3 Supervisor. Her growth reflects not just her own determination and capability, but also what’s possible when opportunities and support align.

In an industry where women are still vastly underrepresented — with estimates suggesting a 20:1 male-to-female ratio, and even fewer women at the supervisory level — Negin’s achievement is more than a personal milestone. It’s a step forward for the entire industry.

We’re proud to have Negin leading by example and continuing to break barriers within rope access.

Proof of Capability | NSW Industrial Site
Another successful demonstration of what sets us apart.

On this complex industrial site in NSW, KTV Working Drones Australia clearly showcased the advantages of drone-enabled façade and asset cleaning. These environments are typically difficult to access – but with our drones, we were able to cover the majority of the site without the need to work at heights.

For the few areas that required it, our experienced rope access team can step in.

📍 Less risk
⚙️ Greater coverage
🚀 Faster results

This is the future of industrial cleaning.

As 2024 comes to a close, KTV Working Drones Australia and FAMASO are proud to reflect on the strides we’ve made in revolutionizing high-risk cleaning.

One of the many highlights of our year has been our collaboration with Downer to clean the Royal Children’s Hospital using cutting-edge drone technology. We are deeply grateful to the Downer team at RCH for embracing this innovation, significantly reducing their working at heights risk, and showcasing the future of safe, efficient cleaning.

Looking ahead, 2025 is the perfect time to reevaluate your approach to high-risk cleaning. Partner with FAMASO and KTV Working Drones Australia to eliminate working at heights risks and explore innovative solutions tailored to your needs.

Let’s work together to make 2025 even stronger!
