KONE Inc., a leader in sustainable escalators and elevators, in conjunction with Great Gulf, leader in the development of industrial properties, launched the first KONE JumpLift to hit North America.
On left, Larry Wash and Kelly Leitch from KONE Americas, alongside Geoffrey Matthews and Chris Mallinos, leaders from Great Gulf, cut the ribbon at North Americas’ first KONE JumpLift. The technology is the first self-climbing elevator that operates during construction in a building’s permanent hoistway, enabling faster and safer construction at Great Gulf’s flagship condominium project in Toronto.
KONE JumpLift, the advanced self-climbing elevator that operates during construction in a building’s permanent hoistway, enables a faster yet safer construction process, reduced down-time, all weather operation, and safer transportation.
While the KONE JumpLift has already been installed in Europe, Asia, China, Australia and the Middle East, it’s now made its debut in North America – years after other countries have benefited from the time- and money-saving advantages. Finally, U.S. regulators are opening their doors to new innovations that are redefining the construction industry during the renaissance we are experiencing today.
