January-June in brief

President and CEO Olli Isotalo:

During the first half of the year, the market activity was varied. We were successful in winning many important Pulp and Paper projects as well as Oil and Gas projects as evidenced in our increased order backlog. Our Services and MRO-driven business was negatively impacted by postponements in customers’ planned maintenance shut-downs, mobility restrictions and lockdowns.
