In 2017 thyssenkrupp will begin the installation of 8 TWIN elevators, 17 conventional elevators and 16 escalators within the 49-storey building containing an area of 132'471 square meters. In addition to the TWIN, thyssenkrupp is also delivering several other new solutions to improve links with public transportation systems.
