Forget the scaffold. Forget the disruption. SkyPod® brings a smarter, faster, and safer way to conduct high-rise building diagnostics.
In a world where compliance deadlines tighten and urban density rises, CPR’s SkyPod® access system is leading a quiet revolution in facade inspection and building envelope diagnostics. This is the future of vertical access—Scaffold-Free™, non-intrusive, and precise.
High-Rise Maintenance Without Scaffolding: Why It Matters
Traditional scaffolding is bulky, expensive, and slow. It often causes prolonged tenant disruption, requires heavy approvals, and exposes crews to unnecessary risk.
SkyPod® changes all that. Designed for rope-free façade maintenance, this proprietary platform offers vertical movement with surgical control—ideal for diagnostics, detailed façade inspections, and remediation planning.
Key Benefits of SkyPod® Over Traditional Methods:
- No tenant disruption – Setup and pack-down are rapid.
- Fully Scaffold-Free™ – Zero scaff structure required.
- Safer access to building exteriors – Minimises manual labour risk.
- Pinpoint building envelope diagnostics – Allows fine-grain inspection of defects.
- Faster reporting cycles – Integrates with CPR’s SFS360® dashboards.
The Technology Behind SkyPod®: Modern Building Inspection Methods
SkyPod® isn’t just a platform—it’s part of a broader CPR ecosystem. Powered by the same vision behind PEARS®, MARS™, and Upseiling®, SkyPod® enables vertical inspections with unmatched clarity and speed.
Our vertical inspection systems combine:
- Motorised tracked platforms for stable movement along façades
- HD imaging and infrared cameras for non-intrusive façade inspection
- Live-feed diagnostics that sync with predictive modelling tools
This ensures that the condition of your building isn’t just seen—it’s understood.
Safe Access to Building Exteriors: Designed for High-Rise and Difficult Access

Unlike rope access inspection or abseiling-only services, SkyPod® provides a stable working environment that doesn’t rely on technician dexterity alone. This is crucial for tall buildings, heritage structures, or sites with limited clearance.
SkyPod® is often used in:
- Heritage façade preservation
- Cladding audits and compliance checks
- Crack and sealant failure inspections
- Storm and weather damage assessments
SkyPod® + SFS360®: A Data-Led Inspection Workflow
All findings from a SkyPod® session are uploaded into CPR’s SFS360® reporting platform, which delivers:
- Interactive façade defect mapping
- Photo-tagged condition ratings
- Compliance traceability (including DBP Act references)
- Digital prioritisation by cost, severity, and urgency
This system supports property owners, strata managers, and facility engineers with clear direction—not technical overwhelm.

Real-World Example: CBD Tower, Sydney
After discovering efflorescence and glazing sealant failure on two elevations, a 25-storey commercial tower in Sydney opted for SkyPod® instead of full scaffolding. CPR completed full diagnostics in just three days, with zero disruption to tenants.
Outcomes included:
- 3D building envelope diagnostics with mapped defects
- Projected remediation plan costed to elemental level
- Validated cladding compliance report
How SkyPod® Supports Scaffold-Free Facade Remediation
For asset owners under compliance pressure, SkyPod® allows pre-remediation planning without waste or guesswork. It enables:
- Condition-first decision-making
- Efficient defect scoping
- Targeted repair schedules
If you’re preparing for a facade upgrade, SkyPod® is the best starting point.
