In cargo shipping, reliability and safety are non-negotiable. KONE delivers heavy-duty elevators designed to perform in extreme marine conditions — from constant rolling and vibrations in rough seas to carrying heavy loads safely.

Our elevators are manufactured under rigorous quality control and built to meet strict international standards. This results in optimal uptime, minimal service needs, and safe, efficient crew and cargo movement — voyage after voyage.
