Otis to Modernize 46 Residential Elevators in Harbin with 1st Gen3™ Comfort Elevators

Otis (NYSE: OTIS), the world’s leading company for elevator and escalator manufacturing, installation, service and modernization, has been selected to modernize 46 residential elevators in the RunYuan Community in Harbin City with the first-ever installations of Otis’ Gen3™ Comfort elevator technology.

Designed to support the accessibility needs of an aging population, the Gen3 Comfort solution includes taller cabs, full-height mirrors, enhanced lighting, and intelligent safety cameras. The elevators will also be equipped with ReGen™ drives and connected to the Otis ONE™ IoT service platform, enabling proactive monitoring and improved performance over the equipment lifecycle.

With nearly 30% of China's population projected to be aged 60 or older by 2030, this project supports growing demand for more accessible living environments. The project is supported by government bond subsidies and aligns with China’s national “good housing” initiative to retrofit homes, enhance barrier-free community access, and better integrate health services into residential areas, making them more inclusive and age-friendly.
