Industry Renewal

Traditional industry is undergoing a transitional phase and facing new challenges. The demands of digitalisation, globalization, and sustainable development are pushing industrial production and its business models to innovate.

The green transition and technological development offer new opportunities for sustainable growth and improved competitiveness for the industry. This also requires investments in low-emission technologies, renewable energy sources, circular economy, and skill development at both individual and organizational levels.

Technological development is the engine of industrial transformation, supported by our emerging strengths. Our expertise is based on long-term investments in automation and robotics, as well as up-to-date technological measurement, testing, and service infrastructure. Our focus is shifting towards the adoption of new digital tools, such as artificial intelligence.

As we move towards more environmentally friendly and sustainable production, key aspects include material reuse, responsible production, intelligent material flows, energy efficiency, sustainable energy sources, and low-carbon technologies. Expertise in coating and material testing is particularly applied to the growing hydrogen economy needs.

We aim for sustainable renewal of the industry through material and manufacturing technologies and intelligent processes, utilizing digital solutions, towards international top expertise. A digital platform is being built to simulate and verify the carbon neutrality, resource efficiency, and sustainability of product manufacturing and procurement processes in value chains.

We actively implement the agreement (2021–2027) between the city of Jyväskylä and the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment in the focus area of the renewing industry ecosystem, supporting the dual transition of Central Finnish companies.

Let's move together towards a greener and more digital future!

We are internationally recognized as co-developers in the utilization of ecological material and manufacturing technologies, as well as digital solutions. We promote technological renewal and innovation in multidisciplinary ecosystems, creating sustainable added value for customers.
