Capable of moving horizontally and vertically with multiple cabins in one shaft, MULTI is set to give limitless possibilities in building architecture, design, and the very nature of how we build our cities.
The first company to install it will be the European real estate giant OVG Real Estate in its new East Side Tower in Berlin. A building next to the Mercedes-Benz Arena and its neighbor Warschauer Strasse, will rise as a new landmark in the German capital.

"The cable-dominated elevator age has come to an end, 160 years after its birth, and buildings can now evolve, reach new heights, shapes and purposes," said Andreas Schierenbeck, CEO of Thyssenkrupp.
The German firm’s cable-free system utilizes vertically mounted tracks, in-cab braking systems, and pivoting elevator tracks to whisk occupants up and across buildings faster and safer than traditional shaft based systems.
In the development of MULTI, which will make history when it is certified in 2019-2020, has been key the participation of several teams of Spanish engineers of Thyssenkrupp of the center of R & D + i of Gijón and the factory of lifts of Móstoles (Madrid ).
