Facts about Kone

Kone was founded in 1910. The word is Finnish for “machine”. The company employs 55,000 people and has installed 1.2 million lifts and escalators in 60 countries. Its 2017 turnover was 8.9 billion euro. Half of that came from selling new equipment, while maintenance and modernisation of older lifts made up the other half.
