What we do at Apellix changes lives – workers’ lives and the lives of those in our communities. Our aerial robotic systems are reducing occupational hazards and making working at heights safer. We are saving tax dollars for the corrosion management of public assets, such as highway bridges and battleships, and saving private dollars on the protection of buildings, ships, storage tanks, oil rigs, and more.
In the public-sector corrosion impacts the military, our transportation, and infrastructure, just to name a few of the biggest categories. For the military, corrosion management – ships, aircraft, infrastructure, etc. – is their single biggest expense. It’s no secret our aging infrastructure needs repair. The National Traffic Safety Board says the most common cause of bridge accidents is rust. This is, with no exaggeration, a life-and-death battle.
