Wittur Group is one of the world's largest independent suppliers of components and systems for the elevator industry. Its portfolio includes elevator doors, safety components, gearless drives, cabins, car frames and counterweight frames. India's burgeoning elevator market attracted the brand to the country three years ago, and the venture has been successful since.
Speaking on the entry of Wittur in India, R. Sumanth, managing director, Wittur Elevator Components India Pvt. Ltd., says: "India is the second-largest market for elevators in the world, followed by China.
The market is growing 10-13%. The urban population was 3 77 million as per  the 2011 census, and this [number] is expected to grow to 590 million by the end of 2030.
This will translate to vertical growth in cities that are starved of construction spaces. [The] estimated urban housing shortage was close to 19 million units in 2012. The building industry that will close this gap will be the target for the elevator market, too, and this will be the biggest driver for the growth of the brand in India."

Wittur S.A.U. in Zaragoza, Spain, has unveiled a new elevator test tower which is prepared to perform the most demanding tests. It has a height of 31 meters and has two shafts of 3x3 meters each to test elevators with a load of up to 2,500 kg at 2.5 m /s . The tower, with a total area of 70 m2, has an additional service elevator with a capacity of14 people at 1.6 m/s to access the different floors and the panoramic meeting room at the top
