INCAP MANUFACTURES ELECTRONICS FOR SAUNA HEATERS MADE BY TULIKIVI
Tulikivi Corporation, the world's biggest manufacturer of heat-retaining
fireplaces, has chosen Incap Corporation as the manufacturer of the control
electronics for its new collection of electric sauna heaters. The serial
manufacture of the products has already started at Incap's Kuressaari factory,
from where they are delivered to Finland for final assembly.
The new collection of Tulikivi is based on high-quality raw materials and new
innovations in design and electronics. A pre-programmed control system is used
in the sauna heaters to adjust the heating period and the temperature of the
sauna. The electronics of the heaters makes it possible to adjust the sauna
temperature with an accuracy of one degree. With accurate temperature control,
the energy consumption of the heaters can be decreased by up to 30 per cent. The
electronics of the heaters also enable monitoring energy consumption and the
usage time of the sauna. The memory of the control unit can also be programmed
with functions adjusted according to personal preference, such as different
temperature settings.
Kimmo Akiander, Business Unit Director at Incap, says: "The delivery contract
signed with Tulikivi is an important opening for us into household energy
devices. High quality is emphasised in Tulikivi's products, and we are very
happy that Tulikivi has assessed Incap to be a quality business partner.
Building a new customer relationship is a process that takes time, and our
objective is to extend our cooperation with Tulikivi from the manufacture of
control electronics to larger entities."
Heikki Vauhkonen, the Managing Director of Tulikivi, says: "The new collection
of sauna heaters is the result of an extensive product development project.
During the project, we have found Incap Corporation, both in its operating
method as well as its products, to be a high-quality company."
The turnover of the Tulikivi Group is approximately EUR 60 million, of which
exports account for about half. The company employs approximately 500 people and
has more than three decades of experience in the manufacture of a range of
fireplaces. Electric sauna stoves were added to the company's product range in
early 2011.
