Elevator Market Analyst Perspective:

Elevator manufacturers have taken the modernization up a notch and launched smart elevators in the industry. Smart elevators are equipped with energy-efficient solutions and use advanced technologies like touch screens, biometrics, and access control systems. Modern buildings use smart elevator systems to deliver improved accessibility provision to their customer base. Smart elevators are expected to define the market with increasing adoption in hospitals, airports, and similar public places. Furthermore, there is a surge in the number of high-rise buildings, owing principally to an increase in population. As a result of these trends, cities across the globe must accommodate a growing number of individuals within their limited space. As a result, builders are focusing on the construction of taller buildings that can accommodate a high number of individuals on a smaller footprint on the ground. For instance, Skyscrapers such as Ciel Tower, City Tower 1, and Il Primo Tower 1 are under construction in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Moreover, other countries such as China, India, Vietnam, Middle Eastern countries, and others are undergoing a substantial increase in building construction activities. Elevators are extensively used in high-rise buildings to provide residents with quick and easy access to different floors of the buildings. Thus, with the growing focus on construction activity, the market is expected to grow during the forecast period.

Elevator Market Overview:

Elevators are vertical transport berths housed in a platform or shaft for helping descend and ascend people or materials between levels and floors. Elevators are commonly operated by electric motors that power counterweight equipment and pump hydraulic fluid or traction cables to ascend a cylindrical system. Most of the multistoried buildings have elevators to facilitate aid of travel and wheelchair access laws. Further, elevators are extensively used in the construction industries for shipping goods and carrying people from one floor to another. Thus, the demand for elevators is expected to increase in both residential and commercial end-user segments during the forecast period.

Aging is an unavoidable phenomenon, but having a comfortable lifestyle as an elderly is in our hands. Countries are facing enormous pressure to create a public system that is emphatic towards the geriatric populace. Growing accessibility in hospitals, airports, residential buildings, nursing homes, and supermarkets has become a topmost priority for governments globally. The elderly population needs products from the market to make their lifestyles more comfortable. Most senior individuals suffer from unavoidable illnesses such as arthritis issues or cardiovascular diseases. Deployment of elevator help the aging population avoid painful flight of stairs; thus, the elevator market is attracting high demand from this section of society.

Further, according to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division, population and urbanization growth are projected to add 2.5 billion individuals to the world's cities by 2050. This scenario is expected to boost the construction industry, resulting in augmented demand. Elevators are extensively utilized in the construction sector for moving people and items from one floor to the next.

Strategic Insights

Elevator Market Driver:

Increasing Focus on Technological Advancements and Rising Adoption of Smart Elevators to Drive Growth of the Market.

Smart elevators are equipped with modern technology such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), cloud computing, and various software and hardware. These systems together allow for condition-based analysis, proactive, real-time data sharing, predictive maintenance, enhanced security, destination prediction, and several other features. A smart elevator is user-friendly, energy efficient, secure & safe, and experiences minimum downtime.   Further, the rise in building construction and the increase in demand for green buildings are a few of the major drivers of the increasing demand for smart elevators. Furthermore, the rise in demand for smart elevators is attributed to the several features that set them apart from traditional elevators and place them in an advanced class. Conventional elevators are not very effective since their basic computing power cannot optimize the amount of time spent waiting by the end-users; additionally, they are not very energy efficient and do not incorporate any real-time monitoring of the elevator system. On the other hand, smart elevators are not only technologically improved but also have a wide variety of functions that contribute to their appeal among building developers. Thus, the demand for smart elevators is expected to increase during the forecast period.

The usage of autonomous systems in smart elevators aids in optimizing elevator movements, which in turn benefits reducing wait time, which eventually leads to more effective passenger transportation during peak periods. Furthermore, in contrast to traditional elevators, smart elevators make use of progressive security measures such as facial recognition, bio-metric, and other similar technologies to avert any unauthorized access. Moreover, smart elevators incorporate sensors and other systems that continually monitor the abnormal behavior shown by the elevators, which includes excessive vibration, sabotage, electrical faults, fire, and others.

Additionally, technology developments in the smart elevator industry are estimated to create lucrative opportunities for market players that operate in the smart elevator market. For instance, in March 2023, Otis Elevator introduced a Gen3TM digitally connected elevator, which is now available in South Korea. The new offering includes Otis's proprietary technology, 'Otis ONE technology,' which allows 24/7 real-time monitoring of equipment health and performance. In addition, it includes an Otis review in-car infotainment display, which can connect to the 24/7 OTISLINE customer support center via video chat in case of an emergency. Advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), cameras, spatial technologies, and sensors are playing a foremost role in the smart elevator market growth.
