KONE OMAN

Since its inception in 2012 as a joint venture partnership between KONE and the Assarain Group, KONE Assarain LLC rapidly took the lead in the Omani elevator market. We truly believe that better cities pave the road for a better future, and we are committed to making people flow an easier, more efficient and pleasant experience. With that in mind, KONE Assarain LLC has installed over 1,000 units in the Sultanate of Oman, all within a span of 12 months, without allowing the rapid implementation process and strategy to compromise the quality and safety standards we strictly adhere to. Furthermore, KONE Assarain now has more than 3,000 elevators under its reliable maintenance.

For the past 5 years, KONE Assarain LLC has been leading the market in full stride and has worked on various iconic projects; such as Muscat International Airport, Oman Convention & Exhibition Center, Kempinski Hotel - The Wave, Radisson Blu Hotel, Grand Millennium Hotel, Sheraton Hotel, Mall of Muscat, Panorama Mall, Salalah Free Zone HQ and a mixed-use facility - Al Fardan.

With an extensive track record of projects in Oman, KONE Assarain has most types of buildings covered, in both the public and private domains. With different types and sizes of projects, ranging from office buildings to residential buildings and even private villas, KONE’s edge of tailoring its solutions to the customers’ needs stole Oman’s heart and won over its urban flow.
