How did KTV Working Drone Develope?

How did KTV Working Drone develope?
KTV Working Drone was founded by the entrepreneur Kennet Nilsen where he Established KTV Group some 30 years ago. Kennet built a very successful facilities management and cleaning business that was the first to secure 20 year contacts for the maintenance and management of many buildings in a number of countries.

Three Decades on and many years of R & D and development and the advancement in technology Kennet evolved and is now the first company in the world to commercialise the use of drones for use in the cleaning, paint and industrial coatings industry. Some others have come and gone, some have similar technology but are yet to commercialise the distribution of a business model to provide a structured solution as a network of businesses to provide the cleaning of windows and facades using drones globally.

KTV Working Drone is the only franchise with all the systems to scale a service utilizing drones globally. 

You may say Kennet has become an authority in the evolution of drones in the cleaning industry.

With Safety being paramount KTV Working Drone has put all the policies to keep not only the franchisee safe but to provide safety within the franchise and workplace for our clients. This is also important to conform with the local country’s civil aviation authority.

Advantages using KTV Working Drone

SETTING THE STANDARD FOR WORKING DRONES

KTV Group first started to use drones commercially in Norway for a new and more innovative way to provide a service for cleaning of windows and facades at heights.

In early 2022  KTV Working Drone was founded where it was launched first in  Norway and now internationally. With unprecedended interest from around the globe  KTV Working Drone has quickly been able to establish a footprint in over 16 countries with many more joining the franchise in months to come. 

Development of the KTV Working Drone originated way back in 2015, where many changes were needed to make the drone commercial. KTV Working Drone R&D department has developed and continues to evolve a unique drone with tailor-made and uniquely adapted mounting equipment for us with specially designed cleaning equipment.

The drone has been extensively tested and commercialised for use with window and facade cleaning and has been used operationally since 2020 by the KTV Group in Norway.

  • Spray painting
    With continued development, extended testing and new partnerships with paint manufacturers, we are moving closer to the final testing fase.

  • Higher altitudes
    We have solved the operating height restriction with our patent pending roof safety system. There are no longer limitations on operation height, and we will continue the testing to be able to operate safely in heights and altitudes up to 600 meters and above.

  • Goggles
    As a result of operating in higher altitudes, the use of special flight goggles is being considered and tested.

  • Remote Control rooms
    Looking beyond 2023, KTV Working Drones is planning to create special control rooms where drone pilots can operate drones all over the world via the internet. Drone Pilots will be able to provide support, provide remote tasks, work safer and be able to provide specialist service to anywhere there is service.

    Remote control rooms would be a great advantage in areas with a lot of noise, high/low temperatures, and other ‘problem’ areas.

Licence and approval for operation

Civil and Aviation Regulatory authorities have strict rules in many regions around the world but are essential for working drones like the drone KTV Working Drone has developed. After many years of field testing, the drafting and implementation of the safety and operational procedures together with a state of the art CRM business system (BlueTag) KTV Working Drone is providing all the operational and procedural manuals that allow us to comply with all relevant authorities in each of the countries KTV Working Drone is establishing.
