January 2023: KONE Elevators India, a fully owned subsidiary of KONE Corporation, a global leader in the elevator and escalator industry, announced its expansion in the North with the opening of a larger new office and state-of-the-art Experience Centre in Gurugram recently.

Just at the dawn of the new year, KONE India Gurugram team moved to a new and bigger office space in the premium business complex of Suncity Success Tower at Golf Course Extension Road, Gurugram. To strengthen customer experience with minimized downtime of elevators and escalators, and for swift deliveries of spares, the company also inaugurated its warehouse near the new facility.

The new office is not only smart but also sustainable. KONE believes that green buildings should be favoured when relocating KONE facilities to existing buildings. This new office has been chosen on the factors, and designed in ways, that address all the important aspects of sustainability and a sense of place. There is a brilliant integration of sustainability in the office design, specifically through the utilization of natural light, leading to minimized amount of artificial light and reduced electricity and HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) costs.

“This is a new chapter of development and growth! At KONE, we are committed to expanding our reach in India and bringing our world-class sustainable People Flow solutions directly to our customers,” said Amit Gossain, Managing Director, KONE Elevators India. “Our new, larger office in Gurugram has been set-up in accordance with our strategy of sustainable success with customers and will help us strengthen our connect with our customers. It also aims to provide an excellent experience for all their equipment needs and requirements, be it for Sales, Installation, Service, Spare Parts, AMC or Modernisation. The office is easily accessible and has the capacity to serve customers within and around Gurugram and some parts of Haryana, such as Rohtak, Manesar, Rewari, etc.,” he further added.

The new facility also comprises the state-of-the-art Experience Centre including the world’s first digitally connected Elevators - the KONE DX Class. It provides customers with an in-person chance to see for themselves the quality and the innovations that drive KONE. It offers a real-time touch-and-feel experience of KONE products, displaying our technological and aesthetic capabilities.

One of the main initiatives for KONE towards carbon-neutral operations is transitioning to a low-emission vehicle fleet. They are incorporating electrified vehicles in local car policies, encouraging their employees to opt for low-emissions vehicles, and providing charging points. This building comprises 50 EV charging stations in the basement to support this initiative.

There are 200 live plants in the office that not only add to the calmness aesthetically, but also absorb CO2 and other pollutant particulates to emit pure oxygen and help in climate change.
