Changes in the Teknoware Group
Teknoware Oy will be separating its business units into two distinct legal entities, effective from 1 January 2026.
The Rail and Bus & Coach businesses will operate as Teknoware Rail&Road Oy, and the Emergency Lighting business will operate as Teknoware Emergency Lighting Oy. Teknoware Oy will remain as the Group’s parent company. Teknoware is part of the Teknopower Group.
This change is primarily a technical and legal restructuring and will not affect our day-to-day operations or current reporting lines. Our customers and partners can expect business to continue as usual.
The separation of business operations enables a clearer business focus and more transparent reporting and supports the continuous development of both businesses.
“This restructuring allows us to focus on each business area separately, thereby improving operational agility and transparency. Our commitment to delivering high-quality products and services remains steadfast” – Kai Kauto, CEO of Teknoware.
For further information, please contact your usual Teknoware representatives.
