A steadfast supplier

A wind farm of 21 modern turbines is under construction in Murtotuuli, Posio. The farm, harnessing the power of the north wind, is expected to be completed in 2023. The project is managed by Infra Builders Oy, which is responsible for cabling, electric stations, the construction of a 110 kV line, roads and the foundations of the hoisting platforms.

“I recommend Reka’s cables to all contractors and clients.”
– Tuomas Mäkilä, Head of Electrical Installation, Infra Builders Oy


Trust is earned

In 2021, Infra Builders constructed a total of approximately 70 turbines. Tuomas Mäkilä, Head of Electrical Installation at Infra Builders Oy, predicts continuous growth for the future. Reka was selected for the project on the basis of the quality delivered in previous cooperation. Reka is involved as a supplier in more than half of the wind farms constructed by Infra Builders. This reflects the solid trust between the companies.

“We have worked with Reka for a long time and learned the reliability of Reka’s deliveries. The cables have always arrived at the site within the agreed schedule. We’ve never had any problems with Reka.”
– Tuomas Mäkilä, Head of Electrical Installation, Infra Builders Oy

Service plays an important role

As usual, Reka’s cable deliveries have been efficient and reliable in the Posio project. As the company has manufactured cables with a build-ahead approach, it has been able to reliably deliver the required amounts of the right type of cable to the site, even at a short notice. The operators and workers at the site appreciate the high-quality products as well as Reka’s technical support.

“Reka’s representatives are always available when needed and their services run smoothly. This helps us avoid mistakes and ensures efficient results!”
– Samu Koivisto, Electrical Engineer, Infra Builders Oy

 

The mutual trust was earned through years of functional cooperation. Reka’s DryRex Nordic Wind products have served customers in northern conditions as efficiently as the company itself. Tuomas Mäkilä affirms that the cooperation with Reka will continue in the future.
