Valmet signed a lease agreement with real estate management company Sponda regarding the lease and construction of an office building in Tikkurila, Vantaa.
JLL acted as a representative and advisor of the Finnish developer and supplier of technologies and services for the pulp, paper and energy industries.
The project foresees the design of modern, functional and comfortable premises, totaling approximately 13,000 square metres.
Tatu Silventoinen, JLL property development director said: ‘Valmet’s office project is a fine example of a built-to-suit development project where the occupier’s high expectations were considered when launching the design process. This ensures the new building will meet the tenant’s actual needs later when completed and the project as a whole is prolific for all parties.’
Located close to Tikkurila train station, the property will bring together more than 700 employees from Valmet’s two current office locations.
Construction work will start during 2022 and be completed by the end of 2024.
A high-class environmental certificate will be sought as special attention paid to the carbon footprint and production of renewable energy.
JLL said it will continue to represent Valmet through the construction process.
