Guangzhou, China — May 2026 | As a premier one-stop service provider in the elevator industry and a specialized manufacturer of Otis elevator display screens, Nanjing Zhuye Elevator Parts Co. was honored to attend the 2026 World Elevator & Escalator Expo (WEEE) in Guangzhou, China. Invited by the China Elevator Association (CEA), our team was present from May 20 to May 23 at the China Import and Export Fair Complex (Pazhou Exhibition Hall), where the global elevator industry converged for four days of innovation, networking, and discovery.
The World Elevator & Escalator Expo is recognized internationally as the most influential platform for the vertical transportation industry. Spanning an impressive 120,000 square meters, this year’s 30th edition brought together over 1,300 leading global enterprises and attracted more than 100,000 professional visitors from around the world. For our team at Nanjing Zhuye, this event was far more than a trade show — it was a window into the future of elevator technology and a powerful reminder of why we remain committed to delivering the highest quality elevator parts and components to our clients worldwide.
Invited by the China Elevator Association: A Mark of Industry Recognition
Our participation at WEEE 2026 began with a special honor: a formal invitation from the China Elevator Association (CEA). The CEA is the authoritative governing body for China’s elevator industry, overseeing standards, safety regulations, supply chain management, digitalization, and international cooperation. Being invited by such a prestigious organization is a testament to Nanjing Zhuye’s standing as a trusted and recognized player in the elevator parts supply chain.
At the CEA’s dedicated exhibition space, we explored the association’s ongoing work across eight key committees — from Codes & Standards and Test, Examination & Inspection, to Digitalisation & AI and Fire & Evacuation. These initiatives directly shape the regulatory environment in which we operate, and staying informed allows us to ensure that every product we supply meets the latest industry benchmarks.
Up Close with Otis: Innovations in Elevator Technology
As a dedicated manufacturer of Otis elevator display boards and indicator screens, visiting the Otis exhibition was a highlight of our trip. Otis, the world’s largest elevator and escalator manufacturer, presented a comprehensive showcase of their latest product lines and technological breakthroughs.
Among the standout innovations were the AEEB building retrofit elevator, designed to bring modern elevator access to older structures, and the Gen3™ Villa elevator, which combines intelligent touch controls with sleek, modern aesthetics. Equally impressive was the ReGen™ energy regeneration technology, which converts the kinetic energy generated during elevator operation back into usable electricity — achieving energy savings of up to 75% compared to conventional systems. With over one million elevators worldwide already equipped with ReGen™, this technology represents a significant step towards sustainable urban infrastructure.
We also examined Otis’s extensive range of elevator fixtures and display indicators — from traditional stainless steel panels to advanced LCD and TFT display systems. As a manufacturer that produces compatible Otis elevator display screens for maintenance, modernization, and replacement purposes, understanding the latest Otis design language and technical specifications is essential to our product development process.
The Rise of Multimedia Displays: A New Era for In-Cabin Experience
Perhaps the most forward-looking trend we observed at WEEE 2026 was the rapid evolution of in-cabin multimedia display technology. Traditional single-line floor indicators are giving way to sophisticated multimedia long strip screens that transform the elevator cabin into an interactive information hub.
The displays we examined ranged from 28.5-inch, 36.6-inch, to 37-inch multimedia screens, each capable of simultaneously showing floor position, destination information, weather forecasts, time, and high-definition video or advertising content. Additional features include remote content publishing, network news integration, and media management systems — all of which point toward a future where the elevator cabin is a fully connected digital environment.
This trend is highly relevant to our product roadmap at Nanjing Zhuye Elevator Parts Co. As demand for smart, connected elevator systems continues to grow globally, we are actively expanding our portfolio of elevator LCD display boards, TFT indicator screens, and control panel components to meet the needs of both new installations and elevator modernization projects.
