Telko - Raw materials and related services
Telko was established when Aspokem and the industrial raw materials business of Telko Group were integrated. The net sales of the new company amounted to EUR 198 million (2007 pro forma).
Telko is the leading distributor of petrochemicals in Finland and its neighboring areas. Its strength lies in specialist know-how, acquired over many years, related to the raw materials required in its customers' processes.
In Chemicals Telko is the link between raw material producers and end chemical users. Our customers include firms working in the coatings and paints, inks, process, feed, chemicals and pharmaceutical industries. Chemicals include industrial and speciality chemicals, automotive chemicals and industrial lubricants. The unit has chemical terminals in Rauma and Hamina. The Hamina terminal serves its customers by offering storage and transshipment services for raw materials and finished products: it plays a significant role as a warehouse for chemicals exported from Russia, for example.
In plastic raw materials our strategy revolves around serving small and mid-size subcontractors who manufacture plastic components. These firms have to react rapidly to the changing needs of their customers, so a responsive local distributor is crucial for them.
Our plastic raw material customers include both electrical and electronics companies, as well as firms producing various consumer goods. We supply these customers with engineering and volume plastics. In plastic raw materials our competitive strengths are efficient logistics and technical support service in combination with tailored deliveries, feeding material directly into the customer's production process.
Telko has operations in Finland, Russia, Ukraine, Belorus, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden, Denmark and Norway.
