Fineweld chosen as a key supplier for Northvolt’s battery factory project
16.08.2020
Fineweld’s extensive experience from large scale industry investment projects together with its unique semi-modular plant construction process has convinced the Swedish green energy pioneer Northvolt to choose Fineweld as a key supplier for building a battery manufacturing plant to Skellefteå Sweden. Fineweld´s supply is a main part of an active material production process for battery cell manufacturing.
Fineweld’s owner and CEO Matti Laitinen is extremely happy describing the biggest contract in Fineweld’s history.
“This is a unique opportunity for us to be a pioneer in building a completely new industry in European scale. This project is an excellent opportunity for us to show our proven skills in large industry projects and create a concept for building a series of similar process lines for coming investments in Skellefteå and possibly on other European locations. This project alone will take more than two years and it gives us a great possibility to lift our company to a new level.”
Project will be executed in alliance with ABB and Sweco. Sweco will take responsibility for engineering. ABB will deliver plant electrification, instrumentation and automation.
