HAMK Tech

Developing manufacturing and the built environment

We are the developers of the future of construction and technology solutions. We are doing our part to solve the world’s most relevant problems, particularly in the field of sustainable construction and the use of new technologies.

We focus on applied research and action that is ambitious, but also concrete and useful. For example, we are involved in developing energy efficiency and fire safety in the built environment, researching bio-color production methods and sustainability, and expanding the potential of robotics of the Kanta-Häme and Pirkanmaa regions, located in southern Finland, together with our partners. Our research activities aim to find ecologically sustainable solutions that take into account the impact on the climate and material cycles.

We are conducting research around the following themes:

  • Bio-based materials and raw materials
  • Intelligent robotics
  • Energy systems and smart buildings
  • Advanced manufacturing
  • Sustainable steel construction
  • Wood and hybrid construction

We provide our customers with high-quality construction and materials research services. We are involved in national and international cooperation networks, such as the ICP Materials network on the impact of air pollution and the SCEC dynamic steel construction platform. The expertise of our research unit is combined into a multidisciplinary collaboration in HAMK’s research ecosystems SmartBio, SmartBuilt and SmartEdu.
