Aerosweep Pty Ltd invented the FOD*BOSS is 1994, but its history of developing speed sweeping solutions goes back more than 30 years. In 2002, it won the Aviation Safety Foundation of Australia’s certificate of air safety award for this innovative product. The company’s product has been adapted for use with road construction projects, military operations, race tracks, and in general aviation. It was invented by the company founder, Warwick Tozer in 1994 and consists of heavy-duty brushes that activate FOD using the force of friction, which is then collected by rows of specially designed and formulated impact resistant Aerothane™ blades to assist in the collection and retention of debris. (PAT.NO.U.S. 8,839,878,B2). Today, the FOD*BOSS is trusted throughout the world via a global network of partners. Partners throughout North America, Oceana, Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and South America work with customers in the aviation industry and other markets. The Airfield Sweeper products are backed by an Unconditional Lifetime Guarantee. Aerosweep’s goals of helping with FOD prevention are extended to partners and end users with materials distributed via PDF, Web, and video resources. To support the FOD*BOSS, Aerosweep has introduced additional products such as: Groundforce™ Tow Hitch: A wind-resistant hitch that keeps the FOD*BOSS secure to the tarmac as it’s tracked behind the vehicle. Debris Retention Blade™: Elevator ribs move FOD up and over retaining barriers to effectively capture debris, in order to maximize retention. FODStop™ Barrier System: Built into capture zones, FODStop barriers help prevent debris from sliding sideways and keep debris spaced during cornering so it’s collected properly. Aerosweep also offers a duplex hitch and Triplex trailer to sweep even wider areas. By doubling or tripling sweeping capacity, customers are ensured a more effective and cost-efficient purchase.
