Spirit of Helsinki and Tommi first at the finish line on Leg 1

Climecon participated in its first EcoVadis sustainability assessment last year and achieved a bronze medal. Now, just a year later, our company’s sustainability work has received significant recognition: Climecon has risen to the silver level. This year, Climecon’s score increased from 62 to 71 out of a possible 100 points.

For example in Finland, the construction sector plays a key role in achieving climate goals. Buildings account for nearly 40% of total energy consumption, and the built environment generates about one-third of carbon dioxide emissions. The ventilation and heating systems designed and installed by contractors define a building’s energy efficiency and indoor climate for decades. Especially in ventilation, correct system sizing, airflow control, and optimization have a major impact on both comfort in living and working environments and on energy use.

Jarkko works at Climecon, specializing in kitchen ventilation design and cost estimation, with a particular focus on export projects, many headed to the Middle East. Working with professional kitchen ventilation systems is varied and full of challenges – every site is unique, and each client has individual needs. This technical design expert is originally from Pihtipudas, where our professional kitchen ventilation solutions are also manufactured. In his free time, Jarkko enjoys playing ice hockey, a true passion of his.
