Presentación de grupo

We are TK Airport Solutions, a business unit of TKE Group.

TK Elevator (TKE) is a global leader in vertical transportation and urban mobility, providing engineering — from design through installation, maintenance and modernization — for elevators, escalators, moving walkways, passenger boarding bridges, stairlifts, platform lifts and home elevators. TKE employs more than 50.000 people around the world, being present in more than 100 countries.

Quiénes somos

From our engineering and manufacturing site in Mieres, Asturias, TKAS offers a full portfolio of airport apron and gate mobility solutions. Our passenger boarding bridges connect terminals to aircraft safely and efficiently. Our ground support equipment covers preconditioned air, ground power units and potable water units for aircraft turnaround. Our advanced visual docking guidance systems (A-VDGS), including the LiDAR-based Apron Vision, ensure precise and safe aircraft docking. Our digital solutions — MAX Automate, MAX Monitor & Control and MAX Maintenance Manager — bring AI and remote operation to the apron.

We also provide modernization and service programs, including upgrades and spare parts that extend equipment life and performance, and we adapt this same engineering expertise to seaports, with our Seaport Passenger Boarding Bridges (SPBB) for ferry and cruise terminals.

Our equipment is used at more than 370 airports in over 100 countries, and TK Elevator boarding bridges have carried over 1.8 billion passengers worldwide.

Joining TKAS means working on real engineering challenges at global scale, combining German engineering heritage with a strong local team in Asturias, and contributing to safer, smarter and more sustainable airport infrastructure.
