828 Cable System Inc. Philippines

In the world of modern architecture, the aesthetics and safety of building exteriors are paramount. Enter Building Maintenance Units (BMUs) – essential tools that enable safe and efficient facade maintenance. In this guide, we’ll delve into the workings of BMUs, their applications, industry leaders like FBA Gomyl, design standards, and key partnerships.

Understanding Building Maintenance Units (BMUs) 

Building Maintenance Units (BMUs) are specialized crane-like systems that hang from a building’s roof, facilitating maintenance tasks on the facade. These systems typically consist of a platform, a multi-layer drum hoist, and four separate wire ropes. The platform, extending over 2 meters, can also incorporate an auxiliary hoist for tasks like glass replacement and heavy-duty maintenance. BMUs are crucial for accessing and maintaining all parts of a building’s facade, even those with an outreach exceeding 30 meters.

Applications of BMUs 

The primary application of BMUs is exterior facade maintenance. However, they can also be utilized for courtyard and atrium wall maintenance, as well as other tasks that require access to vertical surfaces. Architects, builders, and consultants rely on BMUs to overcome facade challenges efficiently and safely.
