Finnish Association of Mechanical Building Services Industries (FAMBSI)

LVI-talotekniikkateollisuus (Suomeksi - Finnish)

Finland is one of the coldest countries in the world in wintertime but summer can be as warm as in central Europe. People in Finland spend indoors typically 90% of their time. As a country with a high standard of living a good - healthy, safe and productive - indoor environment is one key element in Finnish well-being.

In Finland, like in all European Union, buildings use approximately 40 % of the national energy use, and make approximately 30 % of the CO₂ emissions.

To overcome the "contradiction", to provide good indoor environment with minimum use of energy, has for a long time lead the Finnish building services industries towards more and more energy-efficient products, systems and services. Energy-saving products in heating, water supply and ventilation became common relatively soon after the first energy crisis in mid-1970's, and since then complete system concepts and more efficient products have been continuously developed. This development goes on tackling the global climate change and leading towards the net zero energy level in future buildings. And to meet these targets without sacrifying the indoor environment is a continuous challenge.

FAMBSI is the Finnish cooperation organisation for industrial, economic and environmental issues within the mechanical building services industries. FAMBSI was founded at the beginning of 2004, following the merger of the Association of Finnish Manufacturers of Air Handling Equipment (AFMAHE) and the Council of HPAC Industries (LTN). All members of both associations joined the new FAMBSI.

founded in 2003 (predecessors founded in 1963 and 1988)
