Dong Yang

Dong Yang was a South Korean elevator manufacturer that existed from 1966 until 2003. It entered Indonesia in 1988 through PT. Pura Kencana as its distributor. One of their first escalators in Indonesia was installed at Plasa Simpang Lima, Semarang in the late 1980s.

No model names are known. There are at least two different designs that Dong Yang made. The first one is a "flat end" design and the second is a "pointed end" design, the latter seems to be the most common one found in Indonesia. Almost all Dong Yang escalators installed in Indonesia have distinctive triangle patterns on the landing covers similar to Toshiba (Dong Yang had a technical partnership with Toshiba between 1968 and 1999 so the design was similar to each other).

Lindeteves Indonesia was seems to be the one who imported and installed these escalators for the former Glodok Plaza project.

This very rare brand was found in Tugu Pahlawan, Surabaya but it is unknown if the escalator is still there or not. The origin of this brand/manufacturer is not known due to lack of information.

Various Chinese brands

There are numerous Chinese branded escalators sold in Indonesia, such as iFE, Glarie, Larsson, DIAO, etc.

Escalators from these brands are usually "knock-off" or fake Schindler 9300 AE escalators, in other words, their design is a clone/copy of Schindler 9300 AE escalators apart from a few visible differences. It seems that these "fake Schindler" escalators sold by these Chinese brands are produced by Suzhou Xinda Escalator Accessories Co., Ltd., a Chinese company specializes in elevator and escalator components. A few brands such as Larsson or DIAO, however, have their own design.

Local brands

Escalators sold and installed by local brands are also "fake Schindler" escalators, similar to products sold by numerous Chinese companies described above. Because they are made by third-party company, these escalators are considered "generic". The most common local brands found in Indonesia are Pillar and occasionally LINE/LINES.

CNIM

CNIM is a French escalator and moving walkway manufacturer whose products were mostly installed in metro/subway stations and major airports in France and other countries.

In Indonesia, this brand was once exist in Terminal 2 of Soekarno-Hatta International Airport which was completed in 1991. All escalators and moving walkways in the terminal were of this brand, and to this date it is unclear which local company that imported and installed the products. In 2013, all units were completely replaced into OTIS X0-508 and XOP units.
