Schindler Elevator (Aufzug)

Schindler is a leading global provider of elevators, escalators, and moving walkways. Founded in 1874 in Switzerland, the company has grown from a local engineering firm into a massive multinational corporation. Its products are essential components of modern urban infrastructure, found in residential buildings, commercial skyscrapers, and transit hubs across every continent.

The manufacturing process for Schindler products is highly decentralized. Depending on the specific component and the project location, parts may be manufactured in specialized factories in Switzerland, China, the United States, Brazil, or India. This global manufacturing footprint allows Schindler to serve local markets efficiently while maintaining the rigorous Swiss engineering standards the brand is known for.

Owned by the Schindler Holding AG, which is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, the company remains under significant family control via the Schindler and Bonnard families. Headquartered in Ebikon, Switzerland, the group manages a vast network of subsidiaries and service centers worldwide, ensuring that their mobility solutions continue to lead in safety and technical innovation.
