Cibes Air 2.0: Meet the New Generation of Cibes Home Lifts
TL;DR
The Cibes Air 2.0 is a new-generation home lift that brings modern Scandinavian design into the home. With its frameless panoramic glass shaft, refined cabin, elegant lighting, quiet performance, and flexible installation, it combines everyday comfort with a beautifully designed lift that feels naturally part of your living space.
What Makes the New Cibes Air 2.0 Special?
The Cibes Air 2.0 is a new-generation, no pit and no machine room required home lift created for modern residential spaces. It can serve up to 6 floor stops and 20 metres of travel, making it suitable for multi-level homes and a wide range of residential layouts.
But what really makes the Cibes Air 2.0 special is how its design, technology, comfort, and customization come together.
The lift features a frameless panoramic glass shaft, giving homeowners an open and modern visual experience while allowing the lift to blend naturally with the architecture of the home. Depending on the floor and installation requirements, homeowners can also choose between swing doors and automatic saloon doors.
Adding to the comfort is a built-in ventilation fan, which allows the airflow inside the cabin to be adjusted. You can increase or reduce the fan speed depending on your preference, making the ride more comfortable, especially on warm days.
It’s a thoughtful feature that shows how the Cibes Air 2.0 goes beyond appearance. Every detail is designed to make the home lift feel more comfortable, personal, and enjoyable to use.
This isn’t a home lift designed to be hidden away. It’s designed to be seen, experienced, and enjoyed.
Meet the new Cibes Air 2.0, a new-generation home lift featuring a frameless panoramic glass shaft, refined cabin design, elegant lighting, and quiet performance.
Why Does the Cibes Air 2.0 Look So Different?
Traditional elevators can sometimes feel like an addition to a home. The Cibes Air 2.0 takes a different approach.
Its frameless panoramic glass shaft creates a light, contemporary appearance, while the structural profiles are positioned along the shaft to provide the support needed without taking away from the panoramic design.
Step inside, and the attention to detail continues.
The Cibes Air 2.0 features a touchscreen display and control panel, giving passengers an intuitive way to operate the lift and interact with its features. The interface can also be personalized, including custom floor names and wallpaper options, allowing the lift experience to feel more personal to each home.
Can the Cibes Air 2.0 Match the Look of My Home?
Yes.
The Cibes Air 2.0 offers different interior finishes, colours, and carpet options, giving homeowners the freedom to create an interior that works with their home’s style.
Lighting can also change the atmosphere inside the cabin. The lighting temperature can be adjusted from 2700 K to 6500 K, allowing the interior to feel warmer or cooler depending on the preferred setting.
Whether your home has a warm, classic interior or a clean contemporary design, the lift can be planned as part of the overall space rather than treated as an afterthought.
Quiet, smooth, and comfortable. The Cibes Air 2.0 uses a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) designed for quieter home lift operation.
How Quiet Is the Cibes Air 2.0?
A beautiful lift is one thing. A quiet one is even better.
The Cibes Air 2.0 uses a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) designed for smooth and quiet operation.
That matters in a home. A lift may be close to bedrooms, living rooms, or other areas where excessive operating noise can be distracting. The quieter drive system is designed to make everyday travel more comfortable.
Does the Cibes Air 2.0 Need a Machine Room?
No.
The Cibes Air 2.0 has a machine-room-less design, helping reduce the space needed for installation.
It also has a low pit requirement. Depending on the project, the technical specification allows a low-pit installation, with an optional 0 mm pit installation with a ramp when digging a pit isn’t practical.
This can be especially useful when adding a home lift to an existing property.
Instead of planning an entire home around a traditional elevator system, homeowners have more flexibility in finding a suitable location for the lift.
Can the Cibes Air 2.0 Be Installed Outside?
Yes.
The Cibes Air 2.0 can be installed indoors or outdoors, with weather-resistant shaft and cover options available for suitable outdoor and semi-outdoor applications.
This opens up more possibilities for homes where installing a lift inside would affect the existing floor plan.
For example, an external lift can connect several floors while keeping much of the interior layout intact.
Of course, every outdoor installation needs to be assessed based on the property’s structure, weather exposure, drainage, and other site conditions.
What Technology Powers the Cibes Air 2.0?
Behind the clean glass design is a screw-driven lift system designed for residential use.
The Cibes Air 2.0 uses a screw-drive system with relatively few moving parts. According to the product information, this avoids wire-rope wear and oil leakage associated with other lift technologies. Regular professional maintenance is still required to keep the lift and its safety systems operating correctly.
The lift also includes modern passenger features such as a built-in fan, handrail controls, emergency communication, electronic and mechanical door protection, overload alarm, and an emergency back-up battery system.
How Does the Cibes Air 2.0 Protect Passengers?
Safety is built into the lift system through several independent features.
The Cibes Air 2.0 includes:
- Mechanical safety edge
- Electronic and mechanical door protection
- Overload alarm
- Emergency communication
- Emergency back-up battery
The combination of these systems helps address different situations that may occur during normal operation or an unexpected interruption.
If there is a power interruption while someone is inside, the lift can switch to battery operation and automatically lower to the nearest floor so passengers can exit.
Why Is the Cibes Air 2.0 a Good Fit for Modern Filipino Homes?
Many Filipino homes are not designed with a lift shaft from the beginning.
That can make adding an elevator later more complicated, particularly when space is limited or major structural work isn’t practical.
The Cibes Air 2.0 offers several features that can help address these challenges:
No machine room.
The machine-room-less design reduces the additional space needed for traditional elevator equipment.
Low-pit installation.
Its low pit requirement and optional ramp installation can provide more flexibility when digging a conventional pit isn’t practical.
Indoor or outdoor installation.
Homeowners can consider different locations depending on the home’s layout.
Modern glass design.
The panoramic shaft allows the lift to become part of the home’s architectural design.
Quiet operation.
The PMSM Ultra Silent drive is designed for comfortable residential use.
These features make the Cibes Air 2.0 worth considering for both new homes and existing properties.
