1854, the birth of the elevator—this invention changed the way we live.
One cabin in one shaft on one rope traveling up and down, a principle that hasn’t changed for 160 years.
2003, the TWIN elevator changed the industry—two cabins, independently in one shaft.
In the future, more and more people will live in megacities.
Today, building development is constrained by the forms of mobility available.
A revolution is required. We started to reinvent the elevator concept.
What if we were to omit the rope and have a direct drive as part of the elevator cabin?
What if we were to provide more than two cabins in one shaft and let them circulate in the building?
What if we were to invent a groundbreaking system enabling the cabin to move not only vertically but also horizontally?
No more limits in height, shape, and mobility. There are multiple possibilities. And that’s why we call it “MULTI.”
