Russian military actions against Ukraine have prompted KONE to temporarily block delivery to Russia beginning March 3, the elevator/escalator construction and modernization reports. The company has also, for the time being, stopped signing new orders in the country. KONE, a major OEM, has made a donation to the Finnish Red Cross, and continues to look at ways to help people affected by the war.  “Our top priority is the safety of our employees and their families in all locations affected by the war in Ukraine,” said Henrik Ehrnrooth, president and CEO of KONE Corp. For further information, call telephone  +358 41 507 1361, or email your questions to media@kone.com.
