KONE, one of the global leaders in the lift and escalator industry, was founded in 1910 and celebrated its centennial anniversary in 2010. The company’s objective is to offer the best People Flow™ experience by developing and delivering solutions that enable people to move smoothly, safely, comfortably and without waiting in buildings in an increasingly urbanising environment.
