PROFILE |
 |
At KONE it's elevating to get the shaft. The Finnish company is one of the largest elevator manufacturers in the world. KONE makes elevators (passenger and freight), escalators, and autowalks; it also provides maintenance and repair services. The company delivers 20,000 elevators and services nearly 500,000 a year. Maintenance operations account for more than 60% of sales; escalators and elevators account for the rest. KONE's MonoSpace system eliminates the overhead machine room, saving space in low- and mid-rise buildings. The company installs and services its products worldwide, although Europe, the company's largest market, generates more than half of its sales.
