Tehomet Oy is taking determined steps towards more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly operations at its Kangasniemi facility.
Sustainability at the Core of Long-Term Development
At Tehomet, an externally verified Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) has already been completed for all key lighting pole products. This work provides a strong foundation, and we continue to systematically develop our operations towards an even more energy-efficient and environmentally responsible future.
Electric Forklifts Replacing Gas-Powered Ones
In spring 2026, we will transition to modern electric forklifts. This change supports lower emissions, improves the working environment thanks to quieter operation, and brings greater predictability to costs. The shift reflects the direction of the entire industry – sustainability is no longer a choice, but a necessity.
More Energy-Efficient Lighting
Over the past three years, we have almost completely upgraded our lighting to LED technology across both production and office spaces. At the same time, we have optimized lighting controls to match actual needs. The result: significantly reduced energy consumption and more efficient everyday operations.
Modern Heating System at the Surface Treatment Facility
In 2025, we carried out a major upgrade, replacing oil-based heating with an electric solution. Base heating is provided by radiators, supported by air-source heat pumps. Real-time monitoring and control ensure energy efficiency and operational reliability even in changing conditions.
The Journey Continues
Every step brings us closer to a smaller carbon footprint and a more sustainable future – together.
