Finn-Power Oy, the company of Prima Industrie Group manufacturing Prima Power turret punch presses, combined machines and systems, relocated its manufacturing plant and Tech Center previously sited in Kauhava into this brand new facility.
The 20,000 square meter facility was commissioned by the Seinäjoen Yrityskiinteistöt (company owned by the City of Seinäjoki) and built by Lujatalo Oy for an overall investment of around € 20m.
The new factory was specially designed and built for Finn-Power Oy purposes, which rented it on a long-term basis.
The new premises include a production plant (13,530 m2), offices (5,585 m2), and a showroom (1,550 m2). Compared to the previous facilities, the production capacity in the new plant is increased by 40%, thanks to a 30% increase of the production space, improved internal logistics, modern technology, an increased height of the building, where tall storage systems can be assembled in all parts of the hall and hoisting of machinery can be easily performed with big cranes.
"For a company it is a very rare occasion to have the opportunity to build a complete new factory – states Juha Mäkitalo – We have now had that possibility and are very pleased and grateful for it. For Finn-Power Oy the opening is also the occasion to celebrate its 50 years' anniversary. A book on the history of the company was released at the opening event and it is one of our ways to thank all people who have worked for this Company during its half-a-century journey".
