Elevator ropes market is projected to record a considerable growth rate over the coming years owing to the rising adoption of elevators brought on by expanding commercial construction activities. Elevator ropes are highly engineered and made up of steel along with other composites. Elevator ropes are not single wires, instead they are several strands of various sizes swathed together.

A standard rope or cable can have nearly 150 strands of wires that are specifically designed to be flexible and strong with the capability to provide long service. Several wire strands are utilized to increase the life of the cable and provide flexibility. One of the key things about any elevator rope is that it should be in good operating condition during all times.

The types of ropes used in an elevator can vary depending upon the job it is supposed to perform. The elevator ropes market is segmented in terms of core type, functionality, elevator type, and regional segment.

Based on core type, the market is bifurcated into fiber core (FC) and independent wire rope core (IWRC). Among these, the Independent wire rope core segment sales volume was reported at over 200 kilo tons in 2019 and will likely grow at a CAGR of 3.3% through 2026.

IWRC effectively increases the metallic cross-section of elevator wire ropes and lessens the level of tensile stress in individual wires. Moreover, steel cores low the elongation of elevator wire ropes under same loads in comparison to fiber core.

With respect to functionality, the market is classified into traction/hoist, compensation, and governor. Among these, the governor ropes market volume is expected to grow at 1.5% CAGR over forecast timeframe. The governor is a speed monitoring device on traction elevators which activates the safety when the elevator moves too fast. The rope is situated in the overhead or machine room. The governor systems are developed around a sheave which is located at the top of the elevator tunnel.

The governor rope is also coiled over the weighted sheave as well as governor sheave at the bottom side of the tunnel. Being attached to the elevator car, it can easily move when the car moves up and down. When the car speeds up, the governor also speeds up.

Based on elevator type, the market is divided into MR elevator, hydraulic elevator, and MRL elevator. Among these, the MRL elevators sales volume was valued at around 209 kilo tons in 2019, which is projected to reach at a value of approximately 265 kilo tons by 2026.

These elevators use a gearless traction type machine, resulting in high performance and ride quality as compared to hydraulic elevators. MRL elevators could also function at faster speeds, thereby increasing the perception of quality over a standard hydraulic elevator.

From a regional frame of reference, the Latin America elevator ropes market will have around 2% share throughout the forecast timeframe. Rising private sector investment will boost product demand in the region by 2026.
