Mumbai/Pune, September 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ – Schindler India, the 100%-owned subsidiary of Schindler Group, a leading global provider of elevators, escalators and related services, opened a new state-of-the-art Technical Training Centre in Pune. The new training centre, Schindler’s fourth in India, is equipped with three elevator shafts and electronic control simulators, ensuring that Schindler engineers and service technicians are fully trained and certified.

The training provided at the latest training centre assures the highest level of quality, reliability and safety – values which Schindler is known for. Customers therefore, have the unique advantage of not only having the best equipment installed by trained engineers, but also round-the-clock access to trained, certified professionals for service and maintenance.

“An elevator is not a plug-and-play kind of product unlike other building equipment. Just as important is the design and quality of the elevator, it is equally important that it is installed and serviced by trained experts,” says Nimish Deshpande (Sr. Vice President – Technical). Recognising the importance of highly skilled workforce, Schindler India is the only company in the industry, which has invested in four, full-fledged, state-of-the-art training centres – at Mumbai, Bangalore, Noida and now also in Pune.

The training centres are not merely conventional classrooms, but to engage the technicians in actual installation in elevator shafts constructed inside each training centre building. Real-life simulators train the technicians on maintenance and troubleshooting. This ensures that customers have a peace of mind, knowing that their elevator is in safe hands.

“These world-class training centres are providing the best skilled workforce to install and maintain our products. This exceptional value is making Schindler, the first choice of major developers and builders in India,” says Antony Parokaran – CEO, Schindler India.
