1. The lubrication-free step chain saves oil, reduces chain wear, and decreases fire risk

2. Regenerative solutions recover energy created when the escalator is used saving up to 60% energy.

LED lights save 80% energy compared to conventional lighting technologies.

5 Reduced operational speed – 0.4 m/s with an inverter can have energy savings up to 10% depending on passenger traffic, load, motor and drive

6 KONE Direct Drive consumes up to 20% less energy than a conventional worm gear drive.


Recycling of used elevator and escalator equipment and packaging

� Equipment recycling93 percent of an elevator’s and 82 percent of an escalator’s material weights are recyclable.

� Eco-efficiency of packagingKONE packaging includes wood (77%), cardboard and paper (11%) and plywood and plastics. Materials are reused or used for energy recovery.

Supporting our customers in each phase of a building’s life cycle

Eco-efficient construction

Efficient maintenance

processes

Eco-efficiency through

modernization

• Carbon footprint reduction 3% annually through e.g:

• Car fleet management• Eco-efficient logistics• Energy savings at facilities

• ISO 9001 and 14001 certification of key units during 2010

• Supplier environmental excellence, key suppliers ISO14001 certified in 2010

Making KONE an eco-efficient company

Absolute operational carbon footprint, ktCO2e

2012 Absolute carbon footprint increased by 16%�KONE’s headcount has increased (e.g. GiantKONE) and more brand offices have been included�India and GiantKONE have been included in absolute logistics reporting figures�Improved reporting accuracy (electricity and heating)


Developing a more eco-efficient car fleet

• Optimized environmentally sustainable, safe, and cost effective car fleet solutions .– Car fleet policy– Smaller engines– Eco-safe driving training

• Success at Green Fleet Awards : – Green fleet award– Innovation award


� Network optimization � Modes of transport� Delivery loads� Centralization� Increase the green office

and energy efficiency actions

� Increase the use of green electricity

� Increase the number of KONE LEED facilities

Eco-efficient logistics and facilities


ISO 14001 certification

� All KONE corporate and production units and major frontline units are certified.

� One harmonized approach– LEAN manufacturing– 5S, good ”housekeeping”– Saving energy– Reducing waste – Better quality (do it right the

first time)– More reliable product and

service, longer life-time


Supplier environmental excellence

� KONE supplier requirements:– Supplier code of conduct – ISO 14001 compliance

� Key focus areas:– Systematic reduction of

emissions and waste– Restricted & forbidden

substances– RoHS and REACH

� KONE goal: 100% of strategic suppliers meet ISO14001


Long-term objectives towards net-zero energy buildings

KONE delivers sustainable and the most eco-efficient People FlowTM solutions in our industry

� To continue reducing the energy consumption of our solutions

� To further improve the material efficiency of our solutions

� To reduce the environmental footprint of KONE’s operations
