Complii adds Escalator Company
The target offers certified maintenance, repair, refurbishment and installation services for escalators and travelators, serving commercial building owners and property managers.
Takeaways
- Escalator is a specialist in escalator and travelator servicing, maintenance, refurbishment and installation.
- Complii is acquiring Escalator with backing from Ansor.
Vertical transportation maintenance is a regulated, technician-intensive niche that generates recurring revenue from mandatory inspection contracts and compliance work.
Ansor-backed building services platform Complii is moving into that segment with the acquisition of The Escalator Company.
The Escalator Company provides end-to-end services for escalators and moving walkways, spanning routine scheduled maintenance, emergency repairs, code-compliance upgrades, full refurbishment and new installation.
Its teams handle preventive work, 24/7 call-outs and structural modernizations that bring aging assets in line with evolving safety standards.
The business serves commercial building owners, retail centre operators, transit authorities and multi-family residential managers for whom reliable vertical transport is critical to daily operations.
Complii, a portfolio company of Ansor, offers building maintenance and technical services to property owners and managers.
Adding The Escalator Company gives the platform a dedicated capability in the vertical-transportation niche, an area that demands certified technicians and steady compliance activity, creating an additional stream of recurring service revenue.
The escalator and travelator work complements Complii's existing service lines and broadens the menu it can present to property clients.
The transaction was announced in May 2026.
