UOB Plaza
Our team modernized not one but two iconic tall buildings in the downtown central business district of Singapore, delivering a sophisticated state-of-the-art vertical mobility system that lives up to the iconic building's standards.
Standing 120 meters tall, with 32 floors, La Industria was the Chilean capital’s first skyscraper. Our team recently modernized its eight elevators – replacing them with four Schindler 5000s and four Schindler 7000s – and installed Schindler PORT to optimize operations.
La Industria changed Santiago’s skyline when it first opened. Paving the way for skyscrapers to turning the capital’s the financial district into a high-rise haven.
When it came time to modernize the tower’s elevators, our team in Chile upgraded the entire vertical mobility systems to provide an exceptional experience for all passengers.
As the building was in full operation throughout the modernization project, our team deployed Schindler PORT Overlay – a system used to minimize disruption by coordinating existing elevators to maximize their performance while they get an upgrade.
Schindler Overlay works first by installing Schindler PORT over the old elevator controls, immediately improving efficiency and reducing wait times. The building then continues operating with these optimized older elevators while modernization proceeds one elevator at a time, ensuring seven remained in service at any given time.
