The Finnish Nature Centre Haltia has selected Nikari to furnish its facilities

The Finnish Nature Centre Haltia has selected Nikari as one of its leading corporate partners, providing Haltia with tables and armchairs, amongst other things. Nikari was selected as Haltia's partner because our furniture matches their values of ecological soundness and timeless, high-quality Finnish design.

Nikari Oy, founded in 1967, is a manufacturer of sustainable wood design products of exquisite quality. They produce wooden furniture and custom-made furnishings of the local certified wood to private homes as well as public premises, as Haltia. You can read more about Nikari in Infurma, HERE.

Haltia is a new type of visitor centre, bringing all of Finland's nature under one roof and closer to the visitor through both the building's facilities and its stunning exhibitions. Nature from all over Finland can be experienced in the Helsinki region.

The Haltia building was designed by the architect Rainer Mahlamäki, who was inspired by the tales of Kalevala, the Finnish national epic. The design enables man and nature to come together peacefully and harmoniously.

The centre signals a new era in wood building, for it is the first public building in Finland built entirely of wood. The environment has been taken into account in Haltia's facilities and activities alike through skilful design and the latest ecological solutions. Among other features, the building is heated and cooled with energy derived from the sun and the earth.
