Situated in a prime location in the north of Riyadh, The Avenues – Riyadh will, once completed, be home to the largest commercial mall in the Middle East – which alone will cover an area of 388,000 square meters – and comprise five multi-purpose towers that will house hotels, residential apartments, and offices. Developed by Shomoul Holding, The Avenues – Riyadh seamlessly blends traditional Salmani architecture with modern design. The design of the complex has already obtained the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification by the American Green Building Council. Schindler Olayan will provide 134 Schindler 5500 elevators (including 45 passenger elevators, 89 service elevators), one Schindler 2600 elevator, 150 Schindler 9300 escalators, and eight Schindler 9500 moving walks. All units will be cloud-connected which will allow them to be monitored 24/7. Schindler ActionBoard will provide the customer with a real-time overview of all the elevators’ and escalators’ activities, making it easier to prioritize tasks – whether it is performance-checks, planning maintenance, data-exchange or monitoring of general statistics. “It’s a hugely impressive project that will continue to improve the quality of life for the residents of Riyadh and tourists alike,” says Danilo Calabrò, responsible for Europe South, Middle East, and Africa on Schindler’s Group Executive Committee. “The Avenues – Riyadh promises to become a hub for entertainment and tourism in the city, and our units will help to ensure an exceptional experience by allowing visitors to move quickly and conveniently throughout the complex.” About Schindler Founded in Switzerland in 1874, the Schindler Group is a leading global provider of elevators, escalators and related services.
