Saudi Arabia Elevator & Escalator Market

Saudi Arabia Elevator & Escalator Market – Segmented by Type (Elevator, Escalator and Moving Walkways), By Service (Modernization, Maintenance & Repair and New Installation), By End-User (Residential, Commercial, Institutional, Infrastructural), By Region, Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028


Saudi Arabia Elevator & Escalator Market is anticipated to grow at a steady pace during the forecast period, 2024-2028, owing to a rise in projects to offer robust opportunities in the country as the country witnessed rapid urbanization in over the past decade leading to significantly increased population density in urban areas thereby creating a need for vertical expansion of cities. As a result, the utilization of elevators increases as the number of elevated structures increases, thereby driving the growth of the Saudi Arabia Elevator & Escalator Market.

Updating the necessary components of an elevator or lift constitutes modernization. Lift modernization is a common term used to describe this process. Its goal is to boost safety standards and enhance performance that has declined over time. The turning motors and controller hardware are frequently affected during the modernization process for elevators. Elevator modernization can improve their performance and make them more reliable and effective. All of the outdated components are changed out for new, modern components that prolong the elevator's useful life and save maintenance costs.

High Safety Standards

Companies have begun to undertake a full safety evaluation while modernizing elevators in order to provide reliable consultations and recommendations regarding additional components and functions to upgrade added equipment to meet with the most recent safety criteria. Additionally, companies that focus on elevator modernization are currently installing door systems that would prohibit entangled passengers from risking self-rescue attempts by compelling them to open the door from within in the event of an emergency. An elevator is now more sophisticated and secure thanks to the addition of sensory intelligence technologies that continuously and actively monitor elevators and users. These technologies can trigger a request at any time and spot any suspicious behavior.

Augmenting New Technological Advancements

Leading companies such as Otis, Toshiba, Schindler, and KONE are investing in Internet of Things (IoT) and intelligent services to monitor and improve elevator services by predicting how frequently the equipment must move up or down as well as the amount of weight that the elevators can carry with the destination-based operation. For instance, in May 2018, the escalator, elevator, and moving walkway maker Otis announced Otis One, an IoT service platform. Moreover, because solar-powered elevators are powered by the sun, manufacturers such as Schindler can save a lot of energy. Additionally, these regenerative drives and environment-friendly technologies are expanding the potential for the worldwide elevator modernization market.

Increasing Demand for Modern Machine Room Less Elevators

A variety of advantages come with modern machine room-less elevators, including better hoist-way area utilization, decreased weight, more energy efficiency, and more design options. In addition, there is a significant rise in demand for high-speed traction elevators as a result of the global construction of high-rise office and residential structures. Elevator space has grown throughout time to accommodate larger traffic going between multi-story structures. These recently created elevators also come equipped with a range of modern technology, such as Wi-Fi routers, advanced fire alarm systems, wheelchair lifts, etc. The elevator's speed, which has changed substantially over the years, occasionally exceeding 10 m/s, is also influenced by the number of floors in the structure. In low- and medium-story structures, modern machine room-less elevators are increasingly used, saving both space and money on construction. To fulfil the growing market demand, top companies are introducing high speed, ultra-high speed, and machine room-less elevators for various geographical requirements. Such advancements are anticipated to further fuel the Saudi Arabia elevator modernization market in the years to come.
