The award celebrates the company\u2019s next generation Building Maintenance Unit (BMU) that delivers safer, faster, and more sustainable fa\u00e7ade access for the world\u2019s most complex buildings.<\/p>\n<p>The Latour Sustainability Award was established in 2024 to honor measurable sustainability achievements across the Investment AB Latour portfolio. Alimak Group was selected for Manntech\u2019s AMS, which achieved:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>30% lower CO\u2082 emissions<\/li>\n<li>20% less material use<\/li>\n<li>40% shorter assembly time<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>A Smarter Way to Reach the World\u2019s Most Complex Buildings<\/h2>\n<p>The AMS is an articulated, mechatronic BMU designed for safer and more sustainable building maintenance. Traditional BMUs often rely on heavy structures and rigid movement, which increases material use and CO\u2082 output. AMS offers a smarter solution through compact articulated arms that move precisely along fa\u00e7ades. Its mechatronic design combines mechanical components with intelligent controls for smoother operation, improved reliability, and enhanced safety.<\/p>\n<p>Installation is faster and simpler thanks to a modular and more efficient design that reduces the number of components lifted into place. This innovation drives a 40% reduction in assembly time, lowers loads on the building, and extends operational life. Operators also benefit from precise controls that allow safer and more confident work at height, improving both efficiency and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Horkavy, Vice President R&amp;D, says:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Winning the Latour Sustainability Award is a proud moment for Facade Access Solutions and a powerful validation of our approach to innovation. With the AMS, we\u2019ve proven that it\u2019s possible to rethink fa\u00e7ade access with sustainability at the core\u2014reducing CO\u2082 emissions, material use, and installation time, while enhancing safety and performance. We remain fully committed to continuing our journey of delivering smart, sustainable solutions that shape the future of our industry and support Alimak Group\u2019s long-term environmental goals.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This award reinforces Manntech\u2019s role within Facade Access Solutions as a driver of sustainable progress in the facade access industry. It also reflects the strong partnership between Latour and Alimak Group and the shared commitment to long-term sustainable growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alimak Group has been recognized for innovation and sustainability with the 2025 Latour Sustainability Award for Manntech\u2019s Articulated Mechatronic System (AMS).
