Valmont manufactures and surface treats the tubing it requires for making poles. It is the largest company making customized hot dip galvanized products in North America.

Proud of being a Finnish company

Although Valmont acquired the majority of Tehomet’s shares, Tehomet has retained its identity as a Finnish company. The acquisition provided us with new partners from within the Group to implement a variety of different lighting projects.

Thanks to these increased resources, we can offer our Finnish customers an even broader range of custom structures, and will be able to invest even more strongly in developing the smart urban infrastructure of the future. Our sales organization was also greatly bolstered.

Thanks to this partnership, we can better focus on our own strength: the manufacture of custom products.  It is important for us to be a local company from Kangasniemi that employs local talent.
