Hoyden Global, a Norwegian specialist in facade access engineering utilizing rope access as a method, announces its continued expansion across the Nordic region and the launch of an international partnership initiative aimed at creating a safer work environment for rope access companies worldwide.

Founded by professionals with backgrounds in climbing, rope access, and engineering, Hoyden Global has evolved from its origins in the mountains of Romsdalen into a consultancy and delivery partner for architecturally complex buildings. The company operates at the intersection of rope access technology, facade access engineering, and building design, with over 150 completed projects including the Munch Museum in Oslo and K8 in Stavanger, with ongoing projects throughout the Nordics such as Olivin in Stockholm, Firdo in Helsinki, and Kaj 16 in Gothenburg.

Rope access, also known as industrial climbing or abseiling, is often misunderstood as a niche or improvised method. At Hoyden Global, rope access is treated as an engineered discipline grounded in system design, planning, and risk elimination rather than physical exposure.

"Rope access is not about managing risk," says Erlend Siem, Founder of Hoyden. "It is about eliminating it through system design, product innovation and close collaboration with local partners."

By integrating facade access systems early in the design phase, Hoyden Global helps developers, architects, and contractors create buildings that are safer to maintain, more efficient to operate, and visually uncompromised. These systems support facade maintenance, inspection, cleaning, window replacement, and lifting operations on structures where traditional methods like scaffolding or mechanical lifts prove insufficient.

From Mountain Faces to Urban Skylines

The company's philosophy stems directly from its Romsdalen origins, Norway's most demanding climbing region. The same principles used to manage exposure on alpine faces apply to the built environment: redundancy, predictability, and respect for forces. Today, those principles are increasingly deployed on the Nordic region's most challenging buildings, where height, wind, geometry, and access constraints demand more than conventional solutions.

A Clear Shift Toward Rope Access in Building Design

The industry is experiencing a clear uptick in rope access adoption within building design processes. As architects and developers seek alternatives to traditional access methods, rope access is emerging as the preferred solution for an expanding range of applications. Hoyden Global has established several partnerships throughout the Nordic region to support this growing demand, working closely with local rope access companies to deliver projects that prioritize safety and operational efficiency.

Engineering for Long-Term Performance

Hoyden Global specializes in facade access engineering and development of innovative components that support buildings throughout their operational lifecycle. This includes anchor systems, rails, tracks, davits, and bespoke solutions that follow architectural intent while enabling safe access. Working with architects and engineers from the earliest project stages, the company ensures access systems are discreet, efficient, and adapted to each building's unique geometry.

Growing International Recognition

Recent collaborations with prominent figures from the climbing world have brought renewed global attention to professional rope access methods. Professional climber Magnus Midtbo joined Hoyden Global on Karlatornet, the tallest building in the Nordics, in a project that has generated nearly one million views and counting. As cities grow taller and architecture becomes more ambitious, intelligent access solutions are no longer optional components of building design.

Expanding Partnership Network Across Europe

With established operations and partnerships across multiple Nordic markets, Hoyden Global is actively seeking to establish new partnerships with rope access companies throughout Europe. The company positions itself as a center of competence for rope access and facade access engineering, committed to achieving safe work environments together with project teams and local partners.

Hoyden Global provides consulting, system design, and execution services with a focus on safety, efficiency, and long-term building performance.
