TK Elevator

Energy efficiency

Sustainability is part of our corporate DNA. It involves the holistic improvement of our products and processes to help you reduce the environmental footprint of your buildings and qualify for LEED® and BREEAM® certification by incorporating green features in our elevators.

Built-in efficiency throughout the product life cycle


Energy class A Measurements taken on a standard evolution configuration with sleep mode achieve the highest energy efficiency rating class A in use category 1 to 5, according to ISO 25745-2. Certification takes into account where the elevator is installed and energy demand during operation as well as in standby mode. Environmental Product Declaration (EPD®) evolution has a certified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) giving information about the environmental performance and contents, which has been controlled and verified according to the requirements of the International EPD® System. Regenerative drive The optional regenerative drive is a smart system that generates electricity when the cabin has a full load going down and is empty going up. The power generated in both situations is then captured and fed into the grid. LED lighting Is included as standard in all lighting devices. LED lighting can last 10 times longer and is up to 80% more energy efficient than halogen lighting. Standby mode Cabin lighting comes with automatic switch off as standard. Sleep mode (optional) The electronic components are turned off when the elevator is in sleep mode and are instantly activated when the elevator is called. Optional eco/high speed mode To save energy, intelligent energy management automatically adjusts elevator speed and door opening times according to traffic volume. Low energy consumption Thanks to the highly efficient gearless machine with no contaminant lubricants.
