Elevators and Escalators Market Growth and Trends

Rising Adoption of Smart Elevators

The advancement of technologies such as IoT (Internet of Things), cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the elevator industry. Smart elevators integrated with these technologies enable advanced features like predictive maintenance, remote monitoring, energy efficiency optimization and personalized user experiences. Companies are continuously investing in boosting the adoption of smart elevators.

For instance, on 2 Dec 2022, Otis India introduced its new Gen3 range of smart elevators aiming to provide enhanced connectivity and improved performance. These elevators are equipped with time-tracking capabilities, that allow for continuous monitoring and analysis of elevator performance. The advanced tracking technology, the elevators offer increased reliability and efficiency, ensuring smoother and more convenient vertical transportation for users.

Furthermore, the real-time tracking feature enables Otis to closely monitor elevator performance, identify potential issues in real-time and proactively address them. This helps minimize downtime and disruptions, enhancing the overall user experience.

Rising Investments in the Commercial Sector

The increasing investment in escalators for metro stations highlights the significance of efficient vertical transportation in urban infrastructure. As cities witness rapid urbanization and growth, metro systems play a vital role in easing transportation congestion and improving connectivity. Escalators in metro stations enable smooth and convenient movement for passengers.

Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CRML) is taking steps to improve passenger movement by installing 41 additional escalators at select stations. The decision comes in response to the growing number of passengers using the Chennai Metro, with an average of 2.45 lakh passengers per day.

The installation of these escalators aims to enhance the commuting experience and ensure smoother movement for the increasing number of passengers utilizing the Chennai Metro system.

High Installation and Maintenance Costs

Elevators and escalators have limited capacity to control traffic for a certain amount of time, which led to increased congestion and waiting time during peak hours. Elevators and escalators require a continuous power supply to operate, power outages or mechanical failures cause inconvenience for users.

The installation of elevators and escalators in new or existing buildings can be costly. Additionally, ongoing maintenance, repairs and modernization efforts require financial investment. This cost can be a barrier for smaller buildings or organizations with limited budgets. These factors decrease the demand for elevators and the escalator market.
