MP Lifts promotes the digital development at Interlift, the largest international trade fair for the lift industry

As of today, MP Lifts is participating in the world’s largest trade fair for the lift sector, Interlift 2023, in Augsburg (Germany), with a strong commitment to digital development in design, manufacture, maintenance and modernisation of lifts under the motto ‘All in One Partner’.

The company, now consolidated as the seventh largest operator of the sector in Europe, presents all the news related to its IoL (Internet of Lifts) ecosystem of connected lifts for remote connection between lifts, technicians and users.

This technology, providing detailed information on elevators, allows technicians to remotely perform all kinds of actions and opens the door to new functions for owners and users, who can monitor the service level of their lifts. Furthermore, they get access to information about ongoing issues, fault logs, alarms and test call errors, as well as availability and traffic statistics.

MP Lifts was a pioneer in developing a platform for connected lifts in 2009. It was commercially deployed in 2015 and now, in 2023, the company is releasing a new architecture, more flexible, and a new website, with responsive technology, more user-friendly and with further information.

Another company’s new product on exhibition at this international meeting is MP Deby, an online configurator that allows users to design and quote their own lift immediately, with the desired aesthetics and to configure it à la carte. It also makes to get lift plans, including BIM format, quotations, to shorten lead times and improve the service quality, since it is fully integrated with the manufacturing processes.

Lifts modernisation

The European lift fleet is more than 6.6 million units and 50% of this figure is estimated to be more than 30 years old. EU policies -promoting the circular economy, improving energy efficiency, increasing safety, improving accessibility…- are encouraging modernisation, MP has therefore created a new department specifically for this market: ELO2.

At this week’s international trade fair, the company is presenting its wide range of components for modernisation, as well as new complete solutions in the form of kits for the modernising electric lifts with a machine rooms machine roomless and hydraulic lifts. Also, the developments related to the MP ecoGO controller, with its own design, frequency inverter and manufacturing process, which can now control most of the machines in the existing lift fleet, including those of multinational manufacturers.

In terms of new features for cars, the company is presenting the NEW VILITER car, which allows a quick installation by a single person from the inside, saving 4 hours assembly time. This new model is more comfortable (noise is reduced by 1 to 2 dB inside), and more eco-efficient by reducing its weight in 5%.

MP Lifts donates a lift to a school for children with limited economic resources in Ukraine

In January 2022, the journalist and host of “La Linterna” (the lantern) on COPE radio, Ángel Expósito, travelled to Kiev, Ukraine’s capital, in the midst of armed conflict, and heard first-hand, among other stories, the one of a small school run by three Spanish nuns, Antonia, María Jesús and María. There, they teach Spanish to children belonging to low-income families, mainly aged between 5 and 10, who play and learn and who, above all, find peace and refuge.

Amid the armed conflict, which has been going on for more than 500 days, the journalist reported this story and the day-to-day life of this educational centre, where new boilers were needed, as well as a lift so that the elderly nuns who run it could access the upper floors. This is when MP Lifts stepped in, in a spirit of solidarity, by donating a lift and contributing to this humanitarian cause.

“What is really important is the work done by the Dominican Sisters and the entire Congregation of Saint Dominic in Kiev for years. We just did our bit for this cause”, emphasised Eugenio Barroso, CEO of MP Lifts, in an interview given to journalist Manuel Salvador on the programme Herrera en COPE.

This project began last year, and it continued to progress despite the evacuation of the school due to safety concerns.

The development of this project has been made possible thanks to the collaboration with the local company Karat, “which has been fully committed at all times”, acknowledged Eugenio Barroso, as well as two other fundamental people; Lonya and Walter, who have given all their support on the ground.

“MP Lifts consists of a business part and a philanthropic part, channelled through the Valentín de Madariaga y Oya Foundation“, noted the CEO of MP, who highlighted the large social work and the projects that are being developed.
