In the 1970s and 1980s, the prevailing housing trend in Finland, particularly in smaller towns, was the construction of row houses . These residences typically followed a similar blueprint, featuring a wooden frame, relatively thin insulation (up to 150 mm), and direct electric heating. Nowadays, as younger generations desires towards newer apartments in larger cities, …
Specially designed for energy-efficient renovations in older homes and the construction of new apartments, the Finnshield FSi95 is tailored to fit internal walls with a slender thickness of only 95 mm and a module width of 600 mm. It features a single 200 W heating foil. Remarkably lightweight, it weighs less than 70 kg.
Vuoteen 2030 mennessä kaikkien uusien rakennusten on oltava päästöttömiä; uusien julkisten rakennusten on oltava päästöttömiä jo vuoteen 2027 mennessä. Energiatehokkuudeltaan heikoimmat rakennukset pitäisi päivittää energiatodistuksen luokasta G vähintään luokkaan F vuoteen 2030 mennessä ja julkiset ja muut rakennukset vuoteen 2027 mennessä. Asuinrakennukset olisi peruskorjattava G:stä vähintään F-luokkaan vuoteen 2030 mennessä ja vähintään E:hen vuoteen 2033 …
The Finnshield internal wall serves as an active thermal mass, effectively utilizing space without occupying any room. Each element, with a width of 1200 mm, has the capacity to store approximately 2 kWh of energy. This heat accumulator receives energy through standard foils typically employed in ceiling heating systems, capable of reaching up to 150 …
As part of our practical training, we have also developed a modified Bookshelf that replaces books with a system that stores and utilizes heat energy. It appears that the following system is already covered by our Intellectual Property Rights (IPR).And we are ready to make the announcement!
Business travelers often find themselves without alternatives, and flights become a necessity. Unfortunately, there is currently no carbon-free fuel available, so airlines resort to offset programs to compensate for CO2 emissions. However, these offset programs lack transparency regarding project selection, monitoring, and verification. Furthermore, it is worth noting that certain offset projects, such as waste-to-energy …

Wood is an incredible material with great potential as thermal mass. In fact, it boasts a heat capacity per volume that is comparable to bricks. However, there is a challenge when it comes to effectively utilizing wood for this purpose: its low heat conductivity. Despite this drawback, wood serves as an excellent insulation material. Fortunately, …
In order to achieve the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, it is crucial that we explore every possible avenue to reduce our CO2 emissions. The Finnshield project is specifically focused on addressing two key aspects: Firstly, the project aims to maximize the preservation of usable wood raw material from boiler plants. This entails …

While political decision-makers often emphasize the urgency of addressing global warming, there’s a contradiction in their stance when it comes to wood burning. On one hand, they assert that we’re running out of time to combat climate change. Simultaneously, they argue that all wood burning is carbon-neutral due to the CO2 absorption process during tree …
