Amer Sports Corporation moved its corporate headquarters into a newly rennovated industrial site in Helsinki, Finland. The new premises are located in the Vallila Paja Quarters, Aleksis Kiven katu 17 A, 00510 Helsinki. The former industrial site combines both existing and new construction in the unique Vallila district.
 

 

Built in 1919, the red brick building was originally used for building railroad cars and has now been renovated for office use, supervised by the National Board of Antiquities of Finland. Amer Sports has occupied the entire 5,300 square meters of renovated space.

 

 

Amer Sports is applying to have the facility rated as 'Very Good' under the BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Methodology) environmental certification program. The Very Good rating has not yet been achieved in any reconstruction project in Finland.
 


“We are very excited about the new premises. The Vallila Paja quarters provide us with a unique and dynamic environment, which ideally reflects Amer Sports` business in sports equipment, outdoor, apparel and footwear,” said Päivi Antola, Director, Corporate Communications at Amer Sports. “The new premises have been designed to meet our needs, enabling increasingly efficient operations.”
 
Amer Sports` new office premises are located four kilometers from the city center, approximately 17 kilometers from Helsinki-Vantaa airport and less than two kilometers from the Pasila Railway Station.
