Press Release, 14.5.2024 at 9.15 AM

ISKU, Finland’s leading furniture supplier, is strengthening its presence in eight market areas across three continents. The cornerstone of the company’s international growth lies in its long-term development work and dedication to the development of safe, healthy, and pedagogically designed furniture solutions.

Educational institutions, from kindergartens to universities, seek customized, efficiently designed, and high-quality spaces. In recent years, ISKU has solidified its position as a reliable and desired partner in the design and implementation of these environments, promoting learning and innovation around the world. Significant private school projects in Central Europe, Morocco, Malaysia, the Maldives, Kazakhstan, and the United Arab Emirates serve as a testament to this.

“Learning and innovation environments co-designed with users ensure that spaces support the core mission of the educational institution in the best possible way. Each of our projects is unique, as we tailor our furniture solutions to local needs and curriculum objectives. We take pride in serving customers worldwide, from leading universities and multinational corporations to emerging startups and private schools,” says Elise Tarvainen, director responsible for ISKU’s international growth.

Quality education leads the way to sustainability

In addition to curricula and teachers, educational infrastructure is one of the key factors in ensuring access to inclusive, equitable, and quality education and lifelong learning opportunities as outlined in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Agenda 2030.

Well-designed learning spaces take into account not only various learning, teaching, and mentoring styles but also the specific needs of different subjects. When designing or renovating learning processes and functional spaces, it is essential to involve all stakeholders and end-users in the process.

“With a wide range of products and customized design services, we can effectively support the achievement of the United Nations’ goals related to education and learning opportunities. Our long-term commitment to supporting sustainable development goals through innovative solutions and services helps meet evolving educational needs globally, both now and in the future,” says the CEO of ISKU, Mikko Hämäläinen.
