Voliro and Gresco UAS Partner to Strengthen US Aerial Inspection Capabilities
January 20, 2026 – Zurich, Switzerland — Voliro, a global leader in aerial robotics for industrial inspection, has announced a strategic partnership with Gresco UAS, a US-based provider of professional drone and robotic inspection solutions. The collaboration brings Voliro's next-generation inspection technology to infrastructure and industrial asset owners across North America.
Voliro T Platform Enters the US Market
Through the partnership, Gresco UAS will offer the Voliro T inspection platform — an aerial robotic system purpose-built for close-proximity inspection and non-destructive testing (NDT) of complex infrastructure. Its omnidirectional flight and thrust-vectoring capabilities allow the system to safely attach to structures and perform precise, repeatable contact-based inspections.
Combining Gresco UAS's operational expertise, deployment support, and customer training capabilities, the two companies have created an end-to-end inspection solution applicable across a range of sectors, including:
- Power transmission tower inspections
- Industrial facility assessments
- Telecommunications infrastructure maintenance
Asset owners stand to benefit from reduced inspection time, lower personnel exposure to hazardous environments, and higher-quality data to support more confident asset condition assessments.
