Titan Achieves Industry Recognition

We’re proud to announce that the Titan Dual Plunger Retrofit Brake Kit has been named Elevator World 2025 Product of the Year in the Safety Products category. EW’s fifth annual Product of the Year Award highlights outstanding product development achievements from manufacturers whose products are particularly noteworthy or innovative.

Why Titan Earned the Award

The Titan kit was recognized for multiple qualities that define excellence in elevator safety and modernization:

• Significant advancement in technology: Upgrades legacy single plunger braking systems with built-in redundancy.

• Innovative design: Provides emergency braking functionality for both geared and gearless traction machines.

• Design performance improvements: Streamlined installation, reduces downtime, and enhances operational reliability.

• Potential for new opportunities: Pre-engineered, drop-in solution enables safer, more efficient modernization strategies..

Innovation and Reliability Combined

Traditional modernization often requires costly engineering, extensive downtime, or complete machine replacement. Titan delivers a pre-engineered solution that improves safety, meets ASME A17.1 / CSA B44 requirements, and adheres to applicable code updates — all while keeping equipment in service.
