Safe Skyscraper Window Washing Made Possible by JHF Custom Aluminum Solution

Posted by Admin

Background:

Clear Horizon, a unique customer of John Henry Foster- St. Louis, was in need of a lightweight structural add-on to their existing window-washing scaffolding structure. The add-on required durability requirements to withstand a variety of environments and heights- including skyscraper building structures.

Solution:

Our design engineers and sales teams collaborated with the customer to research, design, and build a completely anodized aluminum (with all-aluminum/stainless bracketry) bolt-on kit that provides a lightweight and completely weatherproof design. The kit was built using quality products from Festo, TSLOTS, and Freelin Wade.

Impact:

JHF was able to help Clear Horizon design the most critical piece of their application- the structural component that allows them to mount/operate their automated skyscraper brush/washing system. This was a fairly simple, new design for an important process in Clear Horizon's operation that will now be used worldwide.

Have an idea for a custom aluminum structure to make your operation more safe and efficient? We have everything to build anything.
