KONE
Corporation, a global leader in the elevator and escalator
industry, has won an order to supply 67 KONE elevators for Zhuhai
Huafa Plaza mixed-use development in Zhuhai. Located on the central
coast of China's southern Guangdong province, the city borders
Macau to the southeast, and shares maritime boundaries with
Shenzhen and Hong Kong.
Zhuhai Huafa Plaza will see a 257-meter-tall office tower and two
200- and 143-meter-tall residential towers, all on the waterfront.
The towers will be accompanied by over 390,000 square meters of
boutique retail, food and beverage facilities as well as garden
courtyards and green terraces that offer panoramic views to the
mountains and Macau across the Pearl River Delta.
KONE's delivery includes
42 KONE MiniSpace™ elevators and 25 KONE MonoSpace® elevators. The
elevators will be equipped with the KONE Destination Control System
to reduce waiting and traveling times. In addition, the contract
includes two years of standard maintenance.
"Zhuhai is known for its beautiful gardens and its excellent
location makes the city a popular tourist destination, too. We have
worked closely with our customers and partners on this unique
landmark, which will help create premium experiences for visitors
and residents alike," said William B. Johnson, Executive Vice
President, KONE Greater China.
The project is estimated
to be completed during 2023, and it is developed by Zhuhai Qinfa
industrial Co., Ltd.
KONE booked the order in the third quarter of 2020.
