KONE has won an order to supply a suite of People Flow® solutions, including 11 KONE MiniSpace™ elevators and 28 KONE MonoSpace® 700 DX Class elevators, for the Zin in Noord mixed-use development in Brussels, Belgium, the company announced. KONE DX Class elevators will make new user experiences possible through a combination of design, technology, new materials, apps and services. In addition to the elevators, the order includes the KONE Destination Control System for smoother people flow and improved wait times for visitors and tenants. This complex of hotel, office and residential amenities will also provide leisure, sport, hospitality, and retail facilities. The existing towers, known as WTC I and II, will be re-built and modernized with an additional 14 stories linking the two. The development is set to be a great example of sustainability and circularity, and KONE will contribute to this vision via the Material Health Certification that will be obtained for certain elevator components. The project is expected to be completed during the first half of 2024. The main developer is Zin in Noord. The main contractor is Open Minds, temporary partnership of the CFE group with CFE, BPC, Van Laere and VMA. The main architects are 51N4E, Jaspers-Eyers and l’AUC. VK Engineers and Architects are involved with the MEP engineering. KONE booked the order in the second quarter of 2021.
