Elevate Creativity. Fujitec-ism at full power – Equipped with enhanced design, maintenance and disaster response capabilities, new standard elevator model Ele Glance set for launch in spring 2025 –Shiga, Japan – Fujitec Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Masayoshi Harada) will launch a new standard elevator model, Ele Glance, for the domestic market in the spring of 2025. As a successor to the current flagship XIOR standard elevator model, Ele Glance is equipped with enhanced capabilities in design, maintenance and disaster response. The new product embodies “beauty and hospitability offered by a specialist elevator manufacturer” at the level we pursue. Ele Glance, which has higher added value, offers a greater sense of “safety and reliability” and a comfortable space for transportation.
In pursuit of a “comfortable elevator space that naturally blends into the lives of users,” Ele Glance is built with a refurbished interior with spatial components such as lighting, color, material, and information design, which are all remolded according to the latest interior trend. The new elevator presents a spatial coordination that is focused more on harmony with buildings.
Flood damage to buildings caused by sudden heavy rains and typhoons have been on the rise year after year. To minimize flood risk to elevators, the main devices have been relocated from the bottom to the top of the elevator shaft. Even when water gets inside the elevator shaft, this machinery arrangement can help avoid a large-scale replacement of components and facilitate early recovery of the service.
We have developed a new unit for our remote monitoring system that monitors the operation status of elevators 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We changed communication and monitoring methods and adopted additional monitoring devices, with the aim of realizing data collection and analysis of higher standards and enhancing our preventive maintenance programs.
