With the holiday season fast approaching, one thing is certain: shopping centres will be bustling with shoppers darting from one shop to the next, and the demand for smooth elevator and escalator operations is paramount. Adam Daly, Modernisation Director at KONE Australia and New Zealand, highlights the company’s commitment to modernisation and sustainability.
In today’s evolving commercial landscape, the importance for modernisation and eco-efficiency in retail spaces is essential in ensuring they remain vibrant centres, paving the way for a sustainable future. Retail facilities, such as shopping centres, rely on the continuous modernisation of elevators, escalators and autowalks to keep this experience convenient and accessible for customers. Much like shopping centres, modernisation and sustainability in buildings is essential in creating up-to-date spaces with reliable features that enhance the overall performance of the building and user experience.
Future-proofing technology
In the rapidly changing world of construction and architecture, modernisation is all about future-proofing your building with world-class technology that is up-to-date and provides a positive user experience. Why wait for a problem to arise, which could only cause longer delays and greater costs, when you could stay one step ahead with KONE.
With KONE’s technological capabilities, clients can have peace of mind knowing the building remains at the forefront of innovation, efficiency and sustainability. By minimising disruptions and ensuring seamless operation, retailers can maximise their potential and safeguard against costly downtime and untimely loss of trade.
