Schindler Korea
Schindler Korea was the elevator and escalator operating company of the Schindler Group in South Korea, tracing its roots to Joong Ang (Central) Elevator before becoming a Schindler subsidiary in 2003. As of 2026 its elevator business has been acquired by Otis Elevator Korea, so it no longer operates as an independent Schindler-branded company in the country.
