Big Changes for Elevator Culture During COVID-19

Over 20,000 facilities have elevators to vertically transport occupants to their destination. As COVID-19 continues to plague our cities, balancing elevator traffic flow with social distancing requirements is critically important.

Elevators are used by millions of people every day and can carry 40 times more bacteria than public toilet seats. For elevators to remain a safe and efficient method of transportation, a clean and healthy car environment needs to be created.

Flagship’s PUREClean service system can help you coordinate and maintain processes to help employees feel safe inside your facility.

The pre-COVID elevator experience goes against everything we’ve been taught about social distancing. Occupants would cram large numbers of patrons into every car. Bottlenecks would occur, especially during opening and closing hours. The pre-COVID experience is no longer an option.

As facilities begins to reopen responsibly, one of your biggest conundrums will be how to safely transport people in elevators and manage growing crowds of people waiting in queue.
