During October 2021 Kavika Oy has been partially divided into two parallel companies. Kavika HealthCare Oy focuses on demanding healthcare fixtures and Kavika Oy will continue its operations with Marine catering, professional kitchen and shop furniture together with plumbing products. In connection with the arrangements Malmi-Steel Oy will merge with Kavika Oy by the end of 2021.

The division will strengthen the identity of both companies and create better opportunities for both companies to focus on developing their own business area.

Kavika Oy is responsible for the valid agreements in the healthcare business area and the fulfillment of related obligations. Jarmo Hakkarainen will continue as the CEO of both companies and Jouni Lievonen as the owner.

Open press release

In 2019-2020, Kavika delivered a large set of stainless steel furniture and equipment to Nova Hospital. The delivery also included a significant number of specially equipped fume cupboards for the pathology department. The interior accessories included e.g. basins, taps, shelves, racks, pass-through hatches as well as monitor and equipment racks. The fume cupboard delivery also included impressive double fume cupboards. The site uses sample trolleys that can be connected to fume cupboards or ventilation ducts.

Height-adjustable fume cupboards significantly improve work ergonomics and we are constantly developing the level of automation for fume cupboards, increasing work safety and comfort. We also manufacture fume cupboards with lead protection for special applications.

The pioneer of the Finnish women’s ski jumper is the 24-year-old Julia Kykkänen from Lahti. She won the first women’s SM medal in 2011 and was ranked the same year 14th in the first women´s World Cup race.

This winter she is about to go round the World Cup and the main goal is the Seefeld World Championships in February 2019. Julia´s coach is Toni Nieminen, the multiple world champion and also in the coaching team Heli Pomell and Kimmo Kykkänen.

Kavika Oy and Julia Kykkänen have signed a co-operation agreement for the period 2018-2019. The company wants to support Julia in her goals and to contribute to the appreciation of the women’s ski jumping.

Kavika invests heavily in internationalization and wants to be involved in the promotion of people’s well-being throughout their lives through their products.

During the training and competition season, Julia regularly updates her articles on the Kavika website.

Kavika Oy has provided all the basic stainless steel furniture in the New Children’s Hospital opened in September 2018: tables, cabinets, shelves, slope sinks and skirting boards. The contract also included demanding tailored products such as operating room pass-through cabinets and the fume cupboards.

“Kavika has a significant number of experienced Finnish design and manufacturing experts who are well able to develop high quality and demanding solutions for highly demanding applications” said Tero Ahtiainen from Kavika Oy.
