Aisti

✨2024 has been a real feast for the senses here at Aisti. ✨ We’ve seen great business opportunities popping up (sometimes when we least expected them), relentlessly sniffed out fresh possibilities with the Kitee factory on the horizon, and heard a punch of great feedback on our vision to enhance space functionality and user well-being with our natural, wood fibre-based acoustic solutions. Not to forget the occasional slap of reality we've felt, but in the end, we definitely tasted some sweet success as the year wrapped up. What a year it’s been! This holiday season, we hope you savor every bite, enjoy the good kind of crackle by the fireplace, and take in all the sights and lovely smells of the festivities. Here’s to a 2025 that will be anything but dull! Instead of traditional gifts and cards, we’ve chosen to donate to the Suomen luonnonsuojeluliitto – The Finnish Association for Nature Conservation Their impactful work to protect Finnish nature by combating biodiversity loss and global heating is something we truly value. Safe and Sound Holidays from the entire Aisti team 🌲

After closing our Series A funding round, we had the pleasure of gathering a number of our supporters, partners and friends from Jyväskylä area to celebrate this achievement. It was a moment to pause, appreciate, and share this milestone with those who have been part of the journey. Thank you to everyone who joined us and continues to believe in what we’re building. Moments like these remind us that success is not just about the destination but about the people we share the road with. Onward, together. 🚀

Celebrating Finnish Independence with the Power of Sound Jean Sibelius’ Finlandia is not just a monumental piece of Finnish music history, but also a beautiful example of the profound relationship between sound and space. Composed for orchestra, its sweeping melodies have resonated in concert halls for over a century, with each note vibrating in unison with the acoustics of the room. The orchestration and the way sound interacts with its typical performance environment give Finlandia its power to inspire. As we celebrate our nation’s independence, we’re reminded of the importance of acoustics in our everyday spaces. Just as Finlandia resonates with such emotional depth when played in the right environment, the acoustics of our surroundings shape how we experience sound in all aspects of life, from the concerts we attend to the rooms we live and work in. We invite you to take a moment today to listen to Finlandia and let the sound of Finnish musical history remind us of how music can move us and make us feel. Here’s to sound that unites, uplifts, and inspires. Happy Independence Day, Finland! 🇫🇮 #IndependenceDay #Finlandia #SoundAndSpace #SafeAndSound

✨ Happy Friday all! ✨ This autumn, Aisti has had the privilege of collaborating with several universities, working closely with students on real-life company cases as part of their assignments or other events. For us, it’s not just about business – it’s about giving back to society. By engaging with the next generation of future professionals, we aim to create meaningful opportunities for working together and building connections between education and industry. We believe that fostering this kind of collaboration benefits everyone: students gain valuable insights into the industry, and companies contribute to shaping the skills and confidence of tomorrow’s workforce. Thank you to the students, lecturers, and staff members from Xamk - South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences (PI Roadshow), JAMK University of Applied Sciences (Market Entry Course) and Hanken School of Economics (Strategy and Sustainability Course) for these wonderful collaborations. It has been both enjoyable and educational. We highly encourage other companies to join us in creating these opportunities. Together, we can build a stronger foundation for the professionals of tomorrow. 🚀 Now, please enjoy this wonderful course work by the Hanken students. 👏 #FutureProfessionals #UniversityCollaboration #GivingBack #Aisti #SafeAndSound

Yesterday, we had the honor of attending a fantastic matchmaking event at the Finnish Embassy in Stockholm, hosted by Business Finland and COWI Projektbyrån AB. The event brought together Finnish sustainable products and solutions, showcasing innovations to Swedish construction professionals and property owners. It was a great opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals and explore new ways to collaborate on sustainable building practices that can shape the future of the construction industry. A big thank you to Business Finland and COWI Projektbyrån AB for organising this inspiring event. We're excited about the possibilities ahead and look forward to further developing cross-border partnerships to drive sustainability in construction. Cheers also to all the other Finnish companies presenting their solutions at the event. Together we move ahead. #Sustainability #FinnishInnovation #ConstructionIndustry #SustainableBuilding #Networking #GreenBuilding #Collaboration #BusinessFinland #COWIProjektbyrånSweden #SafeAndSound

Greetings from our Pilot Plant! Over the past weeks, we’ve had the pleasure of welcoming our stakeholders to see firsthand how our sustainable acoustic tiles are made with foam forming technology. These visits are more than just a tour - they’re a valuable chance for us to connect, talk with our customers, and refine our products based on real insights and feedback. If you’d like to drop by for a visit, just send us a message! 📨

The recently published 2024 State of the Climate report highlights the undeniable urgency of addressing climate change. In this context, the building industry stands at a crucial junction. As one of the largest contributors to global emissions, it holds immense potential to drive sustainability through the adoption of eco-friendly materials. However, for this shift to occur, these materials must be accessible - not only environmentally but also economically. One of the biggest challenges in bringing new sustainable materials to market is affordability. At Aisti, we are committed to providing high-performance, eco-friendly acoustic solutions at competitive prices. By empowering architects and builders to make responsible choices without inflating their budgets, we can accelerate the industry-wide transition toward sustainability. Making sustainable choices shouldn’t be a privilege. It must become the standard for all. *The link to the report is in the comments. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #EcoFriendly #GreenBuilding #SustainableArchitecture #BuildGreen #SustainableMaterials #FutureOfBuilding

FinnBuild 2024 was a great experience for Aisti. Meeting so many interesting people ignited numerous insightful conversations with industry peers and potential clients, established countless networking opportunities, and sparked great questions from attendees during these three days. We received promising business proposals and collaboration offers and gained valuable insights for future development. It was also encouraging to hear that the demand for sustainable acoustic tiles is growing, as more people prioritize spaces with better acoustics and healthier indoor air. Customers are increasingly drawn to ecological products, signaling a promising future for our solutions. Thank you, FinnBuild 2024, and especially to everyone who stopped by to meet us.
