KONE has been selected to deliver 42 elevators and 60 escalators to the Eton
Place Dalian complex in the port city of Dalian in China. KONE's innovative and
customized solutions will be installed in the 280-meter high Eton Place Tower 2

The order includes 23 KONE MonoSpace®, 15 KONE MiniSpace(TM) and four KONE
freight elevators, as well as 51 KONE TravelMaster® and nine KONE
TransitMaster(TM) escalators. Altogether these solutions will ensure the smooth
people flow of the thousands who will be working, living and shopping in the

thereby maximizing People Flow. The fastest elevators will be traveling at a
speed of 8 m/s and the maximum travel distance of 271 meters. The six-storey
retail base unites all five towers of the Eton Place complex and will house
luxury shops, department stores, cinemas and theaters.

one of several projects under construction by Eton Properties Group. The five-
building complex is designed by NBBJ, the architect behind KONE references such
as Capital City in Moscow. Eton Place Tower 2 and the shopping mall are expected
