The "Italy Elevators and Escalators - Market Size & Growth Forecast 2024-2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Italian elevator and escalator market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 0.89% from 2023 to 2029

The top 4 prominent vendors in the Italy elevator and escalator market include Otis, KONE, Schindler, and TK Elevator, which account for 60% of the market share in Italy.

Italy ranks as the second country globally in terms of elevator infrastructure, boasting nearly 1,000,000 systems that facilitate nearly one hundred million daily trips. Despite this impressive figure, over 70% of the elevators operating in Italy have been functioning for over two decades, nearly 50% surpassing the thirty-year mark.

Italy has a substantial installed base of elevators within Europe; however, numerous multi-story buildings still lack them, adversely affecting comfort and accessibility. Less than 5% of residential buildings in Italy have elevator systems, and only one in eight buildings with three or more floors has an elevator installed. This gap presents an opportunity for major Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to explore the Italy elevator and escalator market, potentially addressing the demand for elevator installations in these buildings and improving overall accessibility and convenience.

Italian manufacturer Sicor Italy Srl is set to expand its market reach directly to the U.K., France, and Germany from its Italian facilities, effective June 1, 2024. Aritec New Materials Group, headquartered in Luzern, Switzerland, announced a strategic collaboration with Alberto Sassi S.p.A., an Italian firm renowned for its elevator machinery technology, on May 3, 2024. Having operated in Italy for a decade through a subsidiary, Sweden's Hydroware S.r.l., revealed on July 21, 2023, it intends to concentrate on providing completely new lift packages in Italy.
