Pendergardens has awarded a contract to Kone, for the supply, installation and commissioning of elevators and escalators for Pendergardens and The Exchange property developments. Represented exclusively by Mekanika Limited, Kone will transport people both horizontally and vertically up to 24 stories high, via 52 Kone elevators and two Kone escalators.

"The Pendergardens contract is the largest single project we have been awarded, which has stemmed directly from our commitment to this business and our success in all installations of lifts and escalators as well as our proven after sales service for lifts and escalators all over Malta", said Joe Gasan Chairman of the Gasan Group.

"The combination of modern architecture and design, quality living and the revitalised location that Pendergardens offers is a valuable reference for Mekanika Ltd. As the engineering division of the Gasan Group, Mekanika Ltd has developed from a company handling large engineering contracts, into a leading player in providing total solutions for buildings including lifts and escalators, building management systems, facilities management and now air conditioning."

Edmund Gatt Baldachino, Chairman, Pender Ville Ltd said: "Pendergardens stands for quality and commitment to customers. Fully aware of the importance of lift reliability in contemporary living, we went to great lengths to ensure that we deliver only the best.

Founded in 1910 and based in Helsinki, Kone has today evolved into a multi-national worldwide organisation employing over 36,000 employees in more than 100 countries. Today Kone manufacture and sell more than 22,000 new elevators and escalators annually and provide service support to 500,000 units annually.

Mekanika Ltd has been the sole distributor for Kone elevators and escalators for the Malta market since September 2003.

Pendergardens, in the heart of St Julians, will have a mix of apartments, studios, penthouses and villas, in both low and high rise buildings, in an innovative setting. Residences in the Towers will be connected by a bridge to The Exchange - a Financial and Business Centre.
