KONE has won an order to deliver 45 eco-efficient elevators for the terminal

smoothly and on time.
The order includes 25 KONE MonoSpace® Special and 13 KONE TranSys freight

elevators will be modernized to match the eco-efficiency and design of the new
equipment.

agreement is a continuation of our service partnership and further strengthens
our relationship with them," says Ari Lehtoranta, EVP and Area Director of KONE

the Association of European Airlines (AEA).
Installation of the equipment is scheduled to begin in 2014. They will be fully

in the fourth quarter of 2012.
