The xPress-Lift

Higher, faster, better: only a few medium-sized companies can master the superlative challenges of lift construction. With a lifting height of 195.74 m, we serve the sixth-highest lift shaft in Germany – in the Heinrich Hertz Tower, Hamburg’s television tower.

Experience leads to trust, and trust leads to success: we have now also modernised the lift systems in three further television towers in Bremen, Cuxhaven and Kiel. While we installed the lift systems in the television towers in Bremen and Schleswig ourselves, the modernisation of third-party systems in Hamburg, Cuxhaven and Kiel demonstrates the breadth of our range of services in new construction and extensive conversion of complex lift technology.

With a conveyor speed of 3.2 m/s, we have installed our fastest lifts to date at the Schwedenkai Terminal in the seaport of Kiel – according to an independent testing body, they offer unrivalled ride quality compared to similar systems in Germany from the four largest manufacturers worldwide.

And because truly tall buildings are few and far between in Schleswig-Holstein, we go far beyond our core sales area in northern Germany when it comes to high-rise lifts. We are looking for your challenge with a lifting height of up to 300 m and a lifting speed of 4 m/s throughout Germany – challenge us!
