History

We have changed throughout our history. Beginning in the village of Purmo, Finland, we have grown into an international leader in indoor climate-comfort solutions through successful operations, mergers and acquisitions. But our evolution has never been about change for change’s sake. It has been about keeping us ahead of the curve, using our insight to move forward and being good at implementing the moves required.

The image alongside is one of the first radiators we ever built, which now sits in one of our offices in Sweden.
