Engineered for high-rise reliability, extreme temperature tolerance, and continuous operations in the Riyadh commercial sector.
As Saudi Arabia marches toward the realization of Saudi Vision 2030, its capital, Riyadh, has transformed into one of the largest construction hubs globally. The skyline is rapidly expanding upward with iconic developments such as the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD), the massive New Murabba project featuring the Mukaab, and countless premium residential and commercial high-rises. This vertical expansion has generated an unprecedented demand for high-end elevator components, specifically specialized elevator power cables.
In Riyadh's commercial and industrial landscape, elevators are subjected to high-frequency usage, extreme heights, and severe environmental conditions. The local market requires elevator power cables that are not only capable of delivering uninterrupted electrical currents to heavy-duty traction motors but also designed to withstand high ambient temperatures, dust infiltration, and mechanical stress. Consequently, local contractors, developers, and maintenance firms prioritize partnerships with global manufacturers who can deliver cables conforming strictly to SASO (Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization) and international IEC standards.
"Riyadh's extreme summer temperatures exceeding 45°C demand specialized insulation materials. Standard PVC formulations degrade rapidly under continuous heat, making thermal-resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) and low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) compounds the benchmark for new municipal installations in the KSA."
Furthermore, the expansion of the Riyadh Metro network and adjacent transit-oriented developments highlights the need for public-infrastructure-grade cabling. These public projects enforce the most stringent fire safety regulations, requiring elevator power cables that emit minimal smoke and zero toxic halogens in the event of an electrical fault, safeguarding public transit hubs and high-density office zones.
Understanding the unique environmental and structural demands of Saudi Arabia's capital city.
Elevator shafts in Riyadh act as thermal chimneys, trapping ambient heat and fine desert dust. Power cables must feature outer sheaths that are highly resistant to abrasion, thermal cracking, and dust ingress to prevent short circuits and premature aging.
With buildings climbing hundreds of meters, elevator traveling cables must support their own weight over immense vertical spans. High-tensile steel support members are integrated into the power cables to prevent elongation and structural failure.
Modern Riyadh projects integrate elevators into smart Building Management Systems (BMS). Hybrid elevator cables carrying both high-voltage power conductors and shielded data transmission lines (Ethernet/Fiber) are essential for real-time monitoring.
The elevator market in Saudi Arabia is moving rapidly toward sustainability and intelligent automation. The key trends driving the industry include:
Foshan Dalong Chain Equipments Sales Co., Ltd. was established in January 2007 (formerly known as Nanhai Yanbu Seelee Elevator Parts Factory, founded in 1990).

Specializing in the sales of major brand elevator components, we offer an integrated approach that encompasses sales, manufacturing (Custom manufacturing of parts for elevators and escalators that are non-standard, discontinued, or of older models) and engineering technical consulting.
We provide our clients in Europe, America, Southeast Asia, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and Taiwan with comprehensive pre-sales technical consultations, a reliable supply of high-quality parts, and exemplary after-sales service.
State-of-the-art manufacturing lines ensuring international quality compliance for Riyadh's demanding infrastructure projects.
Riyadh features a mix of brand-new smart towers and older commercial blocks constructed in the late 20th century. Maintaining older elevator installations presents a significant challenge for local building operators due to discontinued parts. As an industry leader, Foshan Dalong Chain Equipments specializes in the custom manufacturing of non-standard, discontinued, or older model elevator and escalator parts.
Whether you need custom-molded guide rail sliding shoe linings, specialized control electronic boards, or custom-configured power and control traveling cables, our engineering team can reverse-engineer and manufacture components that meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications. This capability ensures that Riyadh's existing building stock remains operational, safe, and compliant with modern civil defense codes without requiring complete, capital-intensive system overhauls.
Did you know? We act as a strategic cooperative supplier globally for KONE and support parts replacement for Otis, Schindler, Mitsubishi, and Hitachi systems. Our engineering technical consulting helps Riyadh maintenance teams match the exact electrical specifications required for complex modernization projects.
Our direct-to-market supply chain eliminates middlemen, allowing Riyadh contractors to source high-quality replacement parts with rapid lead times, backed by our extensive Shanghai, Suzhou, and Nantong production facilities.

Key insights regarding elevator power cables and parts supply for Riyadh projects.
The Riyadh market is characterized by extreme desert heat and high dust levels. Elevator power cables must have specialized thermal insulation (such as XLPE) to prevent degradation at temperatures exceeding 45°C. They must also comply with SASO standards and feature Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheathing to meet Saudi Civil Defense regulations.
Yes, we specialize in the custom manufacturing of non-standard, discontinued, or older model parts for major elevator brands. Our engineering team can produce custom-built cables, control boards, and mechanical components to match legacy systems operational in Riyadh's older commercial sectors.
