Internationalisation Award of the President of the Republic of Finland granted to Kuusakoski Group Sauli Niinistö, President of the Republic of Finland, has granted today the annual internationalisation award to successful Finnish companies. Kuusakoski Group was awarded as Growth Company of 2023. The Award was received by Mariella Kuusakoski-Toivola, Veikko Kuusakoski and Tapio Kuusakoski. “Kuusakoski has grown throughout the period of industrialization in Finland after the wars, and strong internationalisation in the following decades also helped us grow. Now the driver for growth is our customers' increased need for low-carbon raw materials. I am particularly proud of our consistent product development and investments in cutting-edge technological know-how throughout our company's 110-year history”, says Veikko Kuusakoski, CEO of Kuusakoski Group. Kuusakoski Recycling forms the Kuusakoski Group together with the foundry business Alteams. We couldn't be prouder to receive this recognition and want to extend our heartfelt congratulations to the other companies that were also awarded: Neural DSP Technologies (Newcomer Company), AGCO Corporation (Long-term International Investor) and EnergyVaasa (Community Award).

We are proud our NiSAT technology is being produced in China. This strategic move significantly reduces transportation distances within Asia, resulting in a more efficient and eco-friendly supply chain. By localizing production, we actively reduce the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transport, aligning with our sustainability goals across North America, Europe, and Asia. This step not only enhances our operational efficiency but also strengthens local partnerships. At Elementis, we are setting a new industry standard for sustainability, demonstrating that business growth can coexist with environmental responsibility.  We remain committed to our journey towards a greener future, delivering sustainable products and caring for our planet.    https://lnkd.in/dsJiC962 #AddingFuture #ElementisSustainability #EcoFriendlyProduction #GlobalPartnerships
