Subcontracting: Finland's clean industry brings competitiveness and investors


03.06.2019

According to a survey by the Industrial Union, Finnish industry is one of the cleanest in the world and manufacturing in Finland a pro-environment act. In addition to being an eco-production superhero, Finland is also set to be a pioneer in innovation in sustainable manufacturing and export. This topic will be discussed in September at the international industry subcontracting trade fair, whenSubcontracting (Alihankinta) 2019 and AlihankintaHEAT fairs will be held from 24–26 September 2019 at the Tampere Exhibition and Sports Centre. This year’s theme is Sustainable Manufacturing, and other discussed topics include the economic outlook, internationalisation, industry of the future, as well as digitalisation, new innovations and productivity.

“Sustainable manufacturing means local production, favouring regional suppliers and local networks, avoiding unnecessary transport of goods, developing energy efficiency in production and considering the circular economy, the environment and the carbon footprint of the entire production chain. One thousand subcontracting exhibitors have a significant opportunity to promote the development of sustainable manufacturing, which is why we encourage companies to produce content related to the theme,” explains the Project Manager of Alihankinta, Communications Director Tanja Järvensivu from Tampere Trade Fairs Ltd.

“Sustainable manufacturing brings competitive advantage to companies nationally and internationally, so it is strategically important for the Finnish economy and the industrial companies operating here. Industrial production and investments in Finland increase the wellbeing of Finns, but they are also genuine pro-environment acts, as production in Finland is clearly more environmentally friendly compared to most of the competing countries,” adds Director Sami Nikander from the Rubber Manufacturers' Association of Finland (RMAF).
