TECHNOLOGY OBJECTIVES
uniform safety standards
The adoption of the ASME A17.7/CSA B44.7 Performance-based safety code for elevators and escalators is one way a jurisdiction can ensure that new technology is introduced while maintaining safety for the riding public and elevator personnel.
forward thinking regulation
As new, more sustainable technologies continue to be introduced for our growing urban centers, laws and regulations are continuously updated to keep pace with building requirements. NEII promotes consistent and fair implementation that creates a strong business environment.
better products benefit everyone
Sophisticated innovation in the building industry means better products for both builders and the riding public. As technology improves, so does safety. As such, better products benefit all stakeholders.
