Growth Drivers
Mitsubishi Electric lifts, escalators and building management systems are always evolving, helping to achieve our goal of being the No.1 brand in quality. In order to satisfy customers in all aspects of comfort, efficiency and safety while realising a sustainable society, the highest levels of quality and environmental consideration are always at the core of our activities. As the times change, Mitsubishi Electric will continue to utilise the collective strengths of our advanced and environmental technologies to offer customers reliable products while contributing to society.
Since the mid-19th century, lifts have played a major role in transforming the city skylines of the world, all the while making daily life more convenient. Mitsubishi Electric lifts have played a major role in the development of the high-tech cityscapes of modern Japan, providing architects and developers with new options for innovative building design.
Escalators are big, bulky and expensive installations, and the level of engineering precision and manufacturing standards required to make them work reliably cannot be underestimated. Yet these conveyances are an integral part of daily life for millions all over the world. At Mitsubishi Electric, we’re not only engaged in constant refinement of the technology to protect a customer’s investment over the years, we’re also pushing the envelope with innovative products like the spiral escalator. Introduced more than 20 years ago, to this day we remain the only manufacturer that makes these spectacular installations.
