Schindler case study
Overview

The Company That Moves People Through Buildings Needed to Move People Digitally Too

Schindler has been engineering elevators, escalators and moving walkways since 1874. It operates across more than 100 countries and its products are embedded in the urban infrastructure of cities around the world. When you take an elevator in a major commercial building or an escalator at an airport, there is a meaningful chance it was made by Schindler.

The brand's reputation in the industry is strong. But reputation alone does not generate digital engagement or build the kind of online presence that influences architects, property developers and facility managers when they are specifying mobility solutions for new buildings. That required a proper content programme.

The Challenge

Telling the Story of Urban Mobility

Communicating Schindler's innovation and sustainability story through compelling visual content, reaching the specific professional audiences that make or influence decisions about elevator and escalator specification, was the core objective.

The content strategy was built around the idea of urban mobility as a genuine design challenge rather than simply an engineering one. How do you move tens of thousands of people through a building every day efficiently, safely and in a way that enhances the experience of the space? Schindler's answers to that question were the raw material for the content programme.

Our Approach

How we
solved it.

01
Thirty plus Corporate Videos That Built a Body of Work
More than 30 corporate videos were produced across the engagement. Each one addressed a specific aspect of Schindler's offering, from energy efficient elevator systems to escalator solutions for high traffic retail environments to the technology that enables predictive maintenance and reduces downtime. Motion graphics were developed to explain technical concepts visually in ways that static content could not. The video programme was structured as a body of work rather than a series of standalone pieces. Each video referenced and complemented the others, building a comprehensive and navigable content library that positioned Schindler as a thought leader in urban mobility rather than just a hardware manufacturer.
02
LinkedIn as the Primary Professional Channel
The distribution strategy centred on LinkedIn because that is where the architects, property developers, facility managers and urban planners who influence Schindler's business spend their professional attention online. LinkedIn engagement grew by 200%, reflecting that the content was reaching and resonating with exactly the professional communities the brand needed to be present in. Video views across platforms exceeded 5 million. Website traffic from content grew by 120%.

A Library That Keeps Earning Its Keep

The Schindler
outcome.

The content programme did not just build awareness. A digital presence that will continue to serve Schindler's commercial relationships long after the initial production period is what it actually built, the same long tail value behind Hafele's product video library for architectural hardware and TotalEnergies' brand filmmaking in the energy sector.
