“We work as a collective, but each technician stands behind his own work — by name and by responsibility.”
Behind the ropes are people who chose this work - and the responsibility that comes with it. Some of us come from rock climbing, where trust in equipment and partners is non-negotiable. Others bring decades of experience from construction sites, steel structures and restoration work. Several of us are certified welders, trained for specific structures where mistakes are simply not an option.
Different paths.
The same mindset.

specialization: window cleaning, painting, silo and facade cleaning, pigeon deterrent system installation, resin application
Bio
Rope access technician for 5 years, previously an industrial project management engineer. Seeking a more hands-on profession that encompasses diverse skills, I turned to rope access work, which combines several elements that are important to me: frequent travel, teamwork, working at heights in varied environments and on diverse tasks, and workplace safety.
Specialized in window cleaning, but also experienced in painting, silo and facade cleaning, pigeon deterrent system installation, and resin application.
Confined Space Entry Certificate
Work experience in mainland France, the French West Indies, and Switzerland.
I started working as a rope access technician in 2020. I carried out various missions in different cities, especially in Rennes where I’ve been working mostly in hyper centers. These experiences allowed me to acquire numerous skills and particularly in roofing. I also carried out projects on pylons, in particular the maintenance of the Rosnay naval base with pylons 270 m high. Reflecting back after all those years, this profession has given me experience in many trades, and recently, I got qualifications to become a rope welder.
Anecdote: Whenever I have free time, I go cliff climbing ! Or indoor climbing for training, so I could say that I spend this life with my butt in a harness!
