Altum Technologies

As we wrap up another year in Altum’s story, it’s the perfect time to take a look back and reflect on the wins and learnings from 2025. In 2025, we again successfully expanded our business, started collaboration with new customers and expanded our collaboration with existing customers and stakeholders.  

Our Year in a Nutshell  

 Here are some of the key events and developments from the past year: 

  • We visited and had stands at nine trade shows in the USA, Canada, Germany, France, and UAE. We enjoyed meeting fellow professionals at TappiCon, Biogas Americas, WETEX and World Nuclear Exhibition, to name a few events. 
  • We have focused our engineering and development efforts on improving the usability and customer experience of our ultrasound solution. These updates make the system easier to use and enable customers to achieve higher value and better results. 
  • We have welcomed two new additions to our Altum Team: welcome Joanna and Andrea! You can read Joanna’s thoughts on joining Altum here: Introducing Altum: Joanna, CFO 
  • We have gained many new customers and expanded our cooperation with existing customers. We also hit a record month for sales this year! One industry we’ve had lots of new activities in is the Water industry, which is a segment in which our technology has a lot to offer both in fouling prevention and dewatering improvement.  
  • Altum was also invited to the Capgemini Nordic Sustainability Tech Award event following our double win last year as both the Finnish and Nordic winner. It was great to hear about new innovations that are driving sustainability across industry – we’re definitely in good company!  
  • We have strengthened our ability to measure and demonstrate the positive environmental impact our solution creates for our customers. By increasing process efficiency and reducing emissions, as well as water and chemical use, we help our customers measurably lower both their carbon footprint and operational costs. Next year, we will focus even more on developing these impact calculations together with our customers.

Looking at 2026: 10 Years of Altum Technologies  

Altum Technologies was founded in May 2016, based on the business venture by Matias Tainela and Bo Malmberg and the ultrasound technology built at the University of Helsinki by Professor Edward Haeggström’s team, including Petro Moilanen and Timo Rauhala. These five people became the co-founders of Altum Technologies, which is turning 10 years old next year!  

We’re looking forward to celebrating 10 years of Altum’s story, and hope to make next year even better than 2025 by helping even more companies get rid of fouling issues and improve their overall efficiency, without compromising sustainability. We’re also excited to share pieces of Altum’s story throughout the years, so stay tuned!
