Vertical Transportation Design Consultants - Lifts, Escalators & Access

TÜV SÜD vertical transportation design consultants have had the privilege of working on many of the world’s most iconic buildings, such as the Burj al Arab in Dubai and world-famous commercial high-rise buildings in London. We collaborate with the project architect and the design team to ensure that our lift designs seamlessly integrate to ensure effective traffic flows, energy efficiency, material aesthetics and cost effectiveness.

What is vertical transportation design?

The approach taken to vertical transport is crucial to a high building's success. Elevators occupy substantial space and thus affect the building's amount of usable space. Nevertheless, the building must also have enough elevator capacity to operate properly. This refers to tall, slender buildings and mixed-use projects in particular.

Why choose TÜV SÜD for vertical transportation design SERVICES?

We have over thirty-five years’ experience in developing and delivering lift, escalator and access solutions across all sectors of the built environment.
