#Elevators

Massive blackouts make elevator rides dangerous. Experts shared technical solutions, modernization costs for HOA elevator equipment, and government compensation program opportunities.

Cheap elevators from China and Turkey have flooded the Ukrainian market, frequently failing to meet European fire safety standards and creating severe risks for high-rise residents.

Over 68,000 elevators in Ukraine have exhausted their lifespan, and their complete replacement is estimated at 140 billion hryvnias, experts warn.

Euroformat Lifts CEO Igor Tkachenko discussed the crisis in Ukraine's elevator industry, high-rise energy independence challenges during blackouts, and equipment wear risks.
