Besides, the increase in self-employment has led to the demand for multiple co-work places over the past few years. The countries in Asia are planning to build metro rails in urban areas to reduce traffic congestion and improve transportation facilities. The metro project in the region and real estate investments around these projects will propel the demand for elevators and escalators. Further, a rise in the steel's price would adversely impact the profit margins of the vendors. Increasing raw material prices and the addition of advanced technologies in the equipment augment the price of raw material. Customers expect constant support and after-sales-services from OEMs to maintain the effective performance of elevators and escalators. The bigger and well-established vendors in the market such as ThyssenKrupp, Schindler, Mitsubishi, Hitachi, and Fujitec provide integrated maintenance solutions to their customers.
