TK Elevator (TKE) announced Tuesday it will participate in the 2026 Korea International Elevator Expo, running Wednesday through Friday at Kintex in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province.

The Korea International Elevator Expo is the country's largest elevator trade show, hosted by the Ministry of Interior and Safety and organized by the Korea Elevator Safety Agency and the Korea Elevator Association. Now in its eighth edition, this year's expo will draw about 80 domestic and international companies in the elevator industry, including overseas buyers.

TKE will make the domestic debut of its new eco-friendly, digitally driven elevator model, the EOX, under the theme "The Future of Elevators," and will set up a modular technology zone to showcase its proprietary modular solutions.

The EOX is a next-generation elevator already launched and validated in European and American markets. It earned an energy efficiency A rating from the Korea Elevator Safety Agency through a regenerative drive system and lightweight design, and comes standard with MAX, an AI-powered maintenance solution that predicts malfunctions and enables remote intervention. At the expo, TKE will also display physical units of two of the three newly developed interior designs created for the domestic launch — "Siena" and "Oslo."

TKE will also present solutions designed to improve installation efficiency and adapt to diverse architectural environments. The Spider Module, a patented technology, is a modular elevator installation method that enhances worker safety while supporting precise and rapid construction. The company will additionally introduce the modular moving walk "iwalk" and "i.MOD," a solution that replaces escalators while retaining the existing truss structure.

The company will also provide a consultation space for visitors considering replacing aging elevators, and will display panel materials and indicator components used in elevator replacements. Visitor participation events are also planned: those who collect stamps at all three booths — EOX, Modular and MAX — to complete a single image will receive an EOX keycap keyring. A photo kiosk will allow visitors to take commemorative photos against the exhibition backdrop.

"We are delighted to present the future of elevators — centered on eco-friendliness and digital innovation — at the country's only dedicated elevator trade show," said Jo Yeong-jo, CEO of TK Elevator Korea. "TKE will consistently introduce innovative solutions that help passengers move."

Meanwhile, TKE was recently named the top company in the elevator category at the 2026 Korea Quality Satisfaction Index, organized by the Korean Standards Association.
