Mitsubishi Electric Building Solutions Corporation (Japanese: 三菱電機ビルソリューションズ株式会社; Mitsubishidenki birusoryūshonzu kabushikigaisha) is a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation that manufactures elevators, escalators, moving walks, spiral escalators and dumbwaiters. It is the largest Japanese elevator manufacturer and is along the biggest elevator manufacturers in the world. It also has largest international presence in elevator market from all Japanese companies.

History

Although the division began in 1954, Mitsubishi Electric started manufacturing, installing and maintaining elevators and escalators in 1931, and its first elevators and escalators were delivered in 1935. Between the 1930s and possibly 1970s, it produced elevators under technical partnership with Westinghouse Electric Corp. of USA because Mitsubishi had signed a technical licensing agreement with Westinghouse in 1923. In 1937, it built a factory for manufacturing elevators and escalators at Nagoya Works.

In 1954, Ryoden Service Co., Ltd. was established, which ran as a company providing maintenance services for Mitsubishi elevators and escalators manufactured by its parent company. In 1957, Mitsubishi introduced its first fully automatic group-control elevator model. In 1959, Taiwan's first Mitsubishi elevator and escalator were installed. In 1964, Mitsubishi Electric established Inazawa Works in Aichi Prefecture and became a major factory for manufacturing elevators and escalators.

In 1982, Mitsubishi developed an elevator with VVVF inverter control, which was the first of its kind in the world[1]. Mitsubishi started installing elevators in North America in 1985. In the same year, Mitsubishi launched the first practical "spiral escalator" in the world, with the first unit installed in Osaka, Japan.

In 1990, Ryoden Service Co., Ltd. was renamed Mitsubishi Electric Building Techno-Service Co., Ltd. and started integrated building system business. Mitsubishi supplied and installed high speed elevators at the Yokohama Landmark Tower in Yokohama, Japan in 1993. With a speed of 12.5 meters per second, they were the fastest elevators in the world at the time of their completion and continued to hold such title until 2004 when it was surpassed by Taipei 101's high speed elevators (installed by Toshiba and using technologies from KONE) in Taiwan which ran at a speed of 16.8 meters per second.

In the late 1990s, Mitsubishi marketed its own machine room less elevator, the Mitsubishi GPQ. It was later succeeded by its Elenessa model in 2001.

Mitsubishi entered the Dutch market in 2000 as Mitsubishi Elevator Europe (MEE) when it acquired 51% shares of Wolter & Dros, an elevator manufacturer based in Amersfoort, Netherlands. Wolter & Dros (initially Wolter & Dros EVLI after merged with Eerste Veenendaalse Lift Industrie in 1973) had been making elevators with Mitsubishi as its main component supplier between 1976 and the late 1990s.

In 2011, Mitsubishi received orders to install high speed elevators for the Shanghai Tower in Shanghai, the tallest structure in China. Completed in 2016, these elevators runs at speed of 18.5-20.5 metres per second (≈ 3600-4000 FPM;≈ 66.7-73.8 km/h)[2][3], and were awarded by Guinness World Records for being "the fastest elevators in the world"[4][5], surpassing Taipei 101's Toshiba high speed elevators which ran at 16.8 meters per second. However, the record was later passed over to CTF Finance Centre's Hitachi (also another Japanese company) elevators in Guangzhou, China in 2019 which runs at 21 meters per second.[6]

In 2022, Mitsubishi Electric Building Techno-Service Co., Ltd. merged with Mitsubishi Electric Corporation's Building Systems Group and became Mitsubishi Electric Building Solutions Corporation, the present day company that consistently carries out development, design, manufacturing, sales, installation and maintenance of elevators and escalators.

Location

Mitsubishi Electric is currently based in, Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan. A manufacturing plant called "Mitsubishi Electric Building Solutions Corporation Inazawa Building Systems Works" is located in Inazawa, Aichi Prefecture, Japan, which contains the SOLAÈ elevator testing tower, one of the tallest elevator testing towers in the world[7].

In Southeast Asia, Mitsubishi Electric has elevator manufacturing plants located in Indonesia and Thailand. The Indonesian plant, operated by PT. Mitsubishi Jaya Elevator and Escalator, is located in Karawang International Industrial City (KIIC) in Karawang, West Java and was opened in August 1997[8]. It also has a training tower which was opened in 2004. A second plant in the same area was completed in June 2015[9]. In Thailand, the manufacturing plant is located in Amata Nakorn Industrial Estate, Chonburi.

Other Mitsubishi elevator factories are located in China (Shanghai Mitsubishi Elevator and Guangdong Ryoden), Taiwan, South Korea, Netherlands, United States, Mexico and Colombia.

Trivia

  • Mitsubishi is the most common elevator brand in Thailand so far, with 30% market share in Thailand's elevator market in 2015.[44]
  • Mitsubishi and Shanghai Mitsubishi are the only elevator companies to provide an option to present the basic operation information rather than the full floor announcement, which known as AAN-B[45]. (Check the Compilation of Mitsubishi elevator voice announcements page to learn more.)
    • When the door open button is kept pressed for a long time, or if the elevator gets too busy, there will be a voice guidance saying "Sorry to keep you waiting" when the doors are closing.
    • When the doors closed after responsing the hall call but no car call accepted, there will be a voice guidance saying "Please press the button for the desired floor".
  • In the early days, Mitsubishi elevators and escalators had been manufactured under technical partnership with Westinghouse U.S.A.[46]. Thus, some features used in these older Mitsubishi elevators were based on Westinghouse's features. For example, the standard door sills look nearly identical to Westinghouse's door sills, and Mitsubishi's 1970s-1980s white buttons were based on the Westinghouse AE buttons. Some 1960s-1970s Mitsubishi elevators also used Westinghouse's arrival bell chime[47][48].
  • Uniheis A/S, a norwegian distributor since it's founding in 1986, was taken over by a risk-capitalist company known as Motum Group in 2023. They owned several generic elevator companies across Sweden and Norway (such as I.T.K AB, Hissgruppen AB, Nordisk Hiss AB, HissCentralen AB, Vinga Hiss AB, Motum Skåne and Motum Heis AS). Motum Group was in turn taken over by Mitsubishi Electric back in 2023[49].
    The companies owned by Motum Group still delivers generic elevators using a controller developed by Motum back in 2020, though they also seem to be distributing Mitsubishi elevators as well; since Motum Group had begun to market Mistubishi elevators for the Swedish market since November 2024.[50]
