Karelia-Upofloor combining its hardwood and resilient flooring operations

Karelia-Upofloor Oy is systematically striving to increase its market share in all of its main markets. In the same connection, the company is streamlining its business operations model and improving administrative efficiency. Beginning next year, Karelia-Upofloor will consist of four clear geographical and commercial entities:

- Finland and the Baltic Countries
- Russia and CIS countries
- Scandinavia
- International Projects

At the same time, the structures of the former hardwood and resilient flooring operations will be merged. The new business areas will be responsible for the company's profitability and market position.

"Our new organisational model provides us with superb prerequisites to further strengthen our positions in all our main market areas," says Karelia-Upofloor's CEO Mikko Kilpeläinen, explaining the basis for the changes. "Combining the hardwood and resilient flooring operations will help us make the most of our resources. The restructuring will enable us to fully utilise the synergetic benefits we have at our disposal and further enhance productivity."
