Elevator and Escalator Market

Elevator and Escalator Market

The global elevator and escalator market is poised for robust expansion through 2035, fueled by urbanization, smart city initiatives, and the rise of energy-efficient, IoT-integrated vertical mobility solutions.

According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the market is valued at USD 79.25 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 157.36 billion by 2035, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%.

The FMI report, "Elevator and Escalator Market Size, Share, and Forecast 2025-2035," indicates global revenues will surge by nearly USD 78.11 billion over the decade, propelled by demand for traction-based systems, predictive maintenance tech, and sustainable upgrades in high-rise and commercial infrastructure.

A Decade of Growth Anchored by Urbanization and Smart Integration:

The shift toward AI-optimized, regenerative-drive elevators and escalators is redefining urban mobility. Between 2025 and 2030, the market will grow by USD 31.5 billion, spearheaded by infrastructure booms in Asia-Pacific and Europe.

Between 2030 and 2035, FMI projects an additional USD 46.61 billion in expansion, highlighting deeper adoption of IoT diagnostics, touchless controls, and eco-friendly designs amid aging building retrofits.

"Smart elevators aren't just lifting people-they're optimizing flows with AI and slashing energy costs by up to 30%," said an FMI research analyst. "As cities densify, these innovations will be the backbone of efficient, accessible vertical transport."
