Elevators Pty. Ltd (abbreviated as EPL, also known as EPL Kone from 1986 to 1990) was an elevator company based in Australia. It was acquired in 1986, and dissolved in 1990. It was succeeded by Kone Australia, which used many of EPL's assets.
Products[edit | edit source]
Most of EPL's elevators were developed in-house. Express Lift equipment was sometimes used in the 1970s. After the 1986 takeover but before the 1990 dissolution, many of EPL's in-house controllers were switched over to Kone TMS.
In Australia, EPLs are easily identified by their door tracks, which were identical to Express'.
Fixtures[edit | edit source]
EPL developed fixtures in-house, as well as importing fixtures from Express in the 1970s, as well as Salient and Kone during their final years. EPL's last batch of black circular fixtures would continue to be used on Kone TMS and Office Series installations, exclusively in Australia, until the KSS series replaced it.
