Aging population in France

One-third of the French population is expected to be over 60 years old by 2030, marking a significant shift in the country's demographic structure and raising new challenges for housing and urban planning.

Preference for aging at home

Most older French citizens express a strong desire to age in their own homes, within their familiar neighborhoods and daily routines, rather than moving to specialized care facilities.

Challenges of home accessibility

A key barrier to this preference is the physical challenge posed by stairs, particularly in older homes and apartment buildings, which can make daily living difficult and increase the risk of falls and injuries.

Elevators as a solution

Elevators are increasingly being viewed as essential infrastructure to support the goal of aging in place, offering a practical and safe way for older adults to maintain independence and mobility within their homes.
