Four Decades of Finnish Engineering Expertise at Comatec Group
This year, the Finnish-owned Comatec Group celebrates its 40-year journey as an engineering expert, while maintaining a firm focus on the future.
The company’s story began in Tampere in 1986, when engineer Aulis Asikainen founded an engineering office built on strong technical expertise and a desire to solve even the most demanding industrial challenges. Over four decades, Comatec has grown into an internationally operating expert organisation. Today, Comatec Group employs some 550 specialists and operates in Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Poland and Romania. Growth has been achieved both organically and through acquisitions.
Over the decades, Comatec Group has developed systematically, expanding its service offering from mechanical, electrical and automation engineering to comprehensive expert and project management services. Today, we operate in several industrial and technological sectors, including the energy and mining industries, the process and marine industries, the design and development of mobile machinery, and solutions that promote the circular economy. The strongest growth areas include shipyard and marine equipment engineering, the mining industry, and the defence and dual‑use industries.
In addition to design services, we offer a wide range of expert services related to, for example, safety and compliance, technical communication, technical calculation and simulation, lifecycle support, environmental services and other services supporting the green transition.
Our operations are guided by deep technical expertise, up‑to‑date and practical thinking, and long customer relationships.
“Our customers know us for a service model that adapts to their needs. From a single point of contact, they can access support for individual design assignments, additional resourcing to complement their own organisation, and extensive turnkey project deliveries,” explains Chief Operating Officer Keijo Hämäläinen.
“A 40‑year history provides a strong foundation for the future. Technological transformation, digitalisation and sustainability requirements open new opportunities, and we continue working alongside our customers at the forefront of developing solutions that meet the needs of tomorrow,” says Comatec Group’s CEO Aulis Asikainen.
The anniversary is also an opportunity to thank employees, customers, and partners for the journey so far. However, our focus remains firmly on the future: our objective is to continue growing, developing our competence base and strengthening our position as a reliable technology partner for decades to come.
