The chip power plant designed and manufactured by Relicomp for Volter Oy contained many sheet metal parts that required special tools. The competition jury especially praised the convincing looking product package, where the elements of design and usability are well displayed. With the help of sheet metal technology, a new design thinking has been introduced into the product, according to the jury, and the result is a truly finished whole: - The fine appearance of the product is designed to be cost effective using printing molding as an effect and other forms of traditional sheet metal molding techniques. The body of the product is also designed and manufactured by Relicomp. The entity therefore describes our expertise and the large scale of our manufacturing well, says sales manager Mika Sorri from Relicomp. As export trade accelerated, sea container-style plants caused significant transport costs for Volter due to their large size, so the company decided to renovate the design of small-scale electricity and heat production plants in cooperation with Relicomp Oy. The power plant, which was previously stored outdoors, also had to fit easily indoors and look good. Relicomp Oy's designer Jarkko Könni was responsible for the power plant's mechanical design and plant manufacturing in cooperation with Volter Oy's designer Iikka Ylikoski and Pinto Design Oy's designer Anssi Mustonen. - We agreed on cooperation already at the first meeting in the summer of 2014. Anssi Mustonen had designed a concept image for the customer, on the basis of which we set out to design the product in a form made of sheet metal. Planning began in August. At the same time as we celebrated the 20th anniversary of our company and the opening of our Kurika office on October 31, 2014, we received a call from a customer. He said that he is very satisfied and that the final product also corresponds to a 99% conceptualized product, according to the designer, Sorri says. Paras palkinto Relicompin väelle lienee kuitenkin se, että tuotteen vienti on alkanut vetää muotoilun johdosta. — Henkilöstöllämme on intoa ja halua tarttua uusiin asiakkuuksiin ja haastaviin kokonaisuuksiin. Lähdimme ennakkoluulottomasti tekemään uutta tuotetta uudelle asiakkaalle. Saimme tuoda näkemyksemme tuotteen kehittämiseen osaamisemme kautta ja niin saavutettiin huikea onnistuminen. Se näkyy tämän palkinnon myötä ja ennen kaikkea siinä, että tuote on lähtenyt vetämään vientiin kovalla vauhdilla. Voimme ylpeänä sanoa, että me osaamme ohutlevyn, iloitsee Relicompin toimitusjohtaja Marko Jyllilä.
