Cities occupy 2% of world’s land

mass, but account for 75% of

energy consumption and 80% of

manmade greenhouse gas

emission.

We must improve the quality of life

use of energy, transport and

resources.

Sheet metal

Part variation is very large, size, finish, steel type,

Applications: Doors, cars, guides, frames, housings, cabinets,

containers, panels, profiles ,faceplates, skirtings, railings, etc,

95% mechanically joined parts,

Degree of integration is low, maintainability, disassembly

Flexible production, specialized suppliers for elevator and

escalator industry, (capital cost)

Large mass of products but proportion of added value is low,

Construction industry uses sheet metal, appliances, electro-

mechanics, decoration. Visual quality critical.

Elevators and escalators need to follow the architectural design

trends. So, quality of visual parts is of prime importance.
