About Haushahn
C. Haushahn is a German elevator manufacturer with around 135 years of tradition, headquartered in Stuttgart. The company plans, manufactures and installs passenger, freight, car and small goods elevators as well as paternosters and custom-made individual elevator systems, including the associated components such as control system, drive and shaft ventilation. Factory-installed solutions include steel support structures and glass shaft constructions; individual cab and shaft designs (e.g. steel-glass shafts) are part of the service portfolio. In addition to new installations, cross-manufacturer customer service is a core competency: basic and full-service maintenance, 24/7 emergency call-out service, ZÜS main inspection, hazard assessments, repair (with approx. 27,000 spare parts in stock), modernization and replacement systems. These are complemented by digital services such as idle alarm, remote diagnostics, elevator attendant and Lift Suite, as well as infotainment and energy-saving solutions. Haushahn emerged as a nationwide German company from the merger of regional elevator businesses and, with regional locations throughout Germany, serves industries ranging from industry and automotive to residential, retail and hotels, through to healthcare and public spaces.
