So far this month, Breezy OneTM has been deployed at 3 different airports. The Build With Robots team has been busy in the month of July, first starting at George Bush Intercontinental and then William P. Hobby Airport. Each airport will now have autonomous robots disinfecting their facilities with 99.9999% of pathogens being eliminated. This marks Breezy One as the first robot to be working in two *4-star airports.
As far back as May 2020 Houston was attempting to build upon their 4-star rating, aiming to be one of the few 5-star airports in the world. Houston Airports Director Mario Diaz was quoted then saying, “Despite this crisis, we will use this time to continue to make improvements that will help us reach our vision of establishing Houston Airports as a five-star global air service gateway where the magic of flight is celebrated.” This comes after another huge weekend of travel, as TSA saw over 2.1 million passengers.
As the Build With Robots team was finalizing the deployments at Houston Hobby and George Bush Int’l, the long-term contract extension with the Albuquerque Sunport was approved by the City of Albuquerque, their third airport contract in less than 3 weeks.
These deployments validate the growing demand for enhanced safety and disinfecting procedures. The American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE), for example, partnered with the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC), to encourage all members to achieve GBAC STAR Facility Accreditation earlier this year. The GBAC STAR is a performance-based accreditation program that helps facilities demonstrate that they have the work practices, procedures and protocols to prepare, respond, and recover from outbreaks and pandemics.
“Breezy One was developed to be the most reliable, consistent, and economical method for routine disinfection of large spaces, but can also be used as a tool to achieve GBAC certification” said Xavier Lemon, Head of Commercialization at Build With Robots.
*The 4-star ratings come from Skytrax, an international air transport rating organization.

PAVIX: Proven Winner for All Airport Concrete Infrastructure
International Chem-Crete Corporation (ICC) manufactures and sells PAVIX, a unique line of crystalline waterproofing products that penetrate into the surface of cured concrete to fill and seal pores and capillary voids, creating a long lasting protective zone within the concrete substrate.
Once concrete is treated, water is prevented from penetrating through this protective zone and causing associated damage, such as freeze-thaw cracking, reinforcing steel corrosion, chloride ion penetration, and ASR related cracking.
This white paper discusses how the PAVIX CCC100 technology works and its applications.
