Elevator Rope (Shanghai World Financial Center)
Elevator rope manufactured by Tokyo Rope is used for the ultra-high speed elevators installed in the Shanghai World Financial Center, a skyscraper in Shanghai, China whose construction was completed in October 2008.
The elevators of this building run at ultra-high speed between the ground floor and the world's highest observation deck (height of 474 m) and use wire rope manufactured by Tokyo Rope as they take millions of passengers annually to the "Top of the World."
Tokyo Rope developed and provided this high-strength high-quality rope capable of withstanding world-record setting height and speed as a means to contribute to ensuring safety and providing a comfortable elevator ride.
