(MENAFN) As stated by the chief of the Iran Chamber of Cooperatives (ICC), the nation presently exports components as well as machinery for escalators and elevators to over 15 other nations, according to IRIB.

Addressing outside the Tehran Permanent International Fairgrounds' 11th International Exhibition of Elevators, Escalators, Conveyors, Components, as well as Accessories, that opened on Friday, Bahman Abdollahi stated: “Considering the measures being taken in the elevator industry, the export of products from this industry will exceed the imports over the next two or three years.”

“The elevator and escalator industry has been a pioneering sector in the country’s construction industry and has had significant improvements in terms of quantity and quality,” Abdollahi claimed.

He claims that at the moment, only 5 percent of the essential equipment is imported and that 95 percent of the components and machinery used in escalators and lifts are produced domestically.

Bdollahi added that 1,200 escalators are produced in the nation each year and stated: “Out of this number, less than 1,000 units are for domestic consumption, and more than 200 units can be exported.”
