Office buildings

Our lifts and escalators run at maximum efficiency during peak traffic. When traffic reduces, so does energy consumption. Performance without waste. And we offer flexibility in design, car sizes, and control options.

Your tenants’ safety, comfort, and mobility are our commitment to you

Our lifts and escalators deliver passengers to their offices safely, quietly, efficiently, and in comfort, something your tenants can take for granted.

Managing building traffic

Efficient and smooth mobility in a commercial building is a challenge – and a must, especially in up-peaks and down-peaks. The latest generation of our destination control system, PORT Technology revolutionises the science of optimising traffic flows through every type and size of commercial building while offering personalised service and access control. 

Innovative drive technology

Our innovative, regenerative drive technology is designed to reduce travel energy by 30% compared to any conventional technology available.

Visualising traffic

Our TrafficVision tool simulates traffic patterns in the building long before construction begins. By identifying potential bottlenecks, we can help you solve them before they happen. It also facilitates optimising handling capacity and reducing waiting times.

Worry-free modernisation

From complete replacements with minimal building adaptation to tailored phased modernisation, we ensure maximum traffic capacity with minimum disturbance during modernisation work.

Green buildings

Our highly efficient PORT Technology Destination Control System puts one lift out of a group in full-sleep mode during off-peak periods with fast re-start. Our regenerative drive systems feed electricity back to the grid without harmonic distortion. Combined with waste management during installation, our systems can contribute substantially to your customers achieving green building certification. Schindler has registered Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) at the “International EPD® System” for all major lift product lines, taking an important step further in the assessment of the environmental performance of our products, underlining our continuous efforts towards sustainable solutions.
