Henrik Wickström Visits Tammet – Local Employment and the Future of Finnish Industry in Focus

Founded in 1948, metal mesh manufacturer Tammet has employed local residents for generations. The visit explored ways to strengthen the conditions for business growth and production development. Environmental issues were also discussed as part of industrial operations.

“Tammet has deep roots in Tammisaari. We want industrial expertise and jobs to have a future here. Our goal is sustainable economic growth that enables us to provide employment, develop production, and plan for the long term,” says Jan Silén, CEO of Tammet.

Local Expertise for International Markets

Tammet manufactures metal mesh solutions for construction, architecture, industry, and defense and protection applications. Its Tammisaari factory supplies products to both domestic and international customers.

International markets offer growth opportunities for the company, and local expertise plays a key role in realizing them. Retaining and developing skills also supports the vitality of the entire region.

Discussions on environmental issues highlighted the efficient manufacturing using recycled steel, long product service life, and energy efficiency in production. For Tammet, these are practical ways to improve manufacturing and reduce the environmental impact of its operations.
