iF Design Award

In 2025, Cibes Ascenda was awarded the globally acknowledged iF Design Award 2025 for its compact, elegant and user-friendly product design.

Compact & flexible

Thanks to its compact, shaftless design, Cibes Ascenda only takes up space on the floor where it is needed, leaving the other floor perfectly accessible.

Low building costs

Ready-made, all-inclusive concept with a shaftless, pitless and machine room less design that requires less building work than conventional elevators.

Living space without limits

Thanks to its smart, shaftless design, Cibes Ascenda only takes up room on one floor at a time:

  • When the lift car goes up, it frees up space on the bottom landing.
  • When the lift car goes down, it frees up space on the top landing.

A compact and flexible solution that offers you living space without limits.

Because we care about your comfort & safety

We want you and your loved ones to use the home lift whenever you want and as often as you want. That is why Cibes Ascenda comes equipped with standard features that are designed to ensure your comfort and safety at all times.

Robust drive system

Unlike other through-the-floor lifts, Cibes Ascenda is screw-driven. Cibes screw and nut drive is very safe and reliable and has a long lifespan – up to 25-30 years with proper maintenance. Another advantage of screw-driven lifts is that they require less maintenance than hydraulic or belt-driven lifts, for example.

Black or white elegance

Cibes Ascenda is available in Signal White RAL 9003 (standard) or in Graphite Black RAL 9011 (optional). Two classic shades that look great in any home.
