Valmet’s new premises in Tikkurila, Vantaa, have been completed. Nearly 700 Valmet employees in Finland, mainly from Järvenpää and partly from Vantaa’s Hakkila office, have moved into the new premises in early spring. The office building is located close to the Tikkurila station at Lauri Korpisen katu 9, and the area of the premises rented from Sponda Plc is approximately 13,000 square meters. Valmet’s head office is in Keilaniemi, Espoo.
The daily life of those working in the Tikkurila office is supported by the building’s diverse services, such as a lunch restaurant, a gym, a large bicycle parking area with adjacent social facilities, and a parking garage with electric car charging points. The area offers Valmet employees excellent public transport connections and the services of the Dixi shopping center. In the design of the building, the focus has been on the flexibility of the spaces, the brightness of the work areas, and high indoor air quality.
The new property has an energy efficiency class A and a platinum-level LEED environmental certification. Solar panels that produce renewable energy have been installed on the roof of the building, and the yard has been planted with vegetation that supports biodiversity. The property’s energy efficiency is also improved by using a geothermal heating system.
