LIFT IT UP

Several innovations have been made to make elevators futuristic for homes and commercial buildings. Some of the leading elevator companies like Otis, Thyssenkrupp, Johnson, Schindler and Kone have come up with some amazingly innovative lifts and elevators.

DO THE NEW

The elevator space is rapidly changing and ever evolving. It is expected to grow more in the coming years and key drivers for it would be residential and infrastructure. Designing an elevator is crucial to modern buildings. Ashok Ramachandran, CEO & President, Schindler India says, “we are entering into the digital-out-of-home (DOOH) industry as a network owner to enhance the passenger experience in the elevator. With the Schindler Media Network you can keep in touch and communicate in real-time with your tenants, residents, and visitors via in-lift screens, perfectly positioned for maximum attention.” Arrchana Chellappa, Operations Head, Elite Elevators, adds, “the H100 – Spindle, the smallest and most compact home lift in our product range has been designed to meet all requirements for comfort, space and design in a narrow environment. H200 (Altura Platinum) – Hybrid is the perfect compromise in terms of solutions flexibility and cost efficiency. H300 (Altura Diamond) – Cog belt incorporates innovative cog belt technology: silent and efficient. The gearless drive system can offer unbelievable comfort and performance.”
