For Escarmat, working with Veslatec means a strategic partnership that doesn’t create extra stress but keeps production running smoothly day after day.
As the largest private employer in Mustasaari, Escarmat manufactures electrical and automation switchgear for globally operating energy-sector customers. The company needs a partner it can rely on in every situation.
“Veslatec is one of the few suppliers we work with who do not create unnecessary stress. They consistently maintain high quality, and in the event of any issue, they promptly notify us and assist in resolving the issue.”
This is how Escarmat’s buyer, Jaana Kankaanpää, describes the collaboration with Veslatec. The companies have worked together for over ten years, and Kankaanpää has been involved for about half of that time.
When schedules shift, Veslatec reacts immediately
In the electrical industry, there’s no room for slow response times. Kankaanpää recalls a situation where an end customer requested changes to a Veslatec-manufactured part on the very same day:
“We were in contact in the morning, and in the afternoon the new part was already with us. That shows Veslatec’s flexibility and speed.”
Speed, however, doesn’t mean cutting corners; it means controlled processes and consistently high-quality results.
“Every delivery is identical and flawless, which reduces the amount of supervision we need to do and gives us confidence that our production line won’t stop because of their components,” Kankaanpää says.
Proactive communication and straightforward cooperation
The collaboration between Escarmat and Veslatec is built on transparency. If there’s a risk of schedule changes, the information arrives well in advance.
“If Veslatec notices that a delivery might be delayed, they let us know immediately. That isn’t a weakness — it’s a strength. It allows us to prepare and adjust our own schedules,” Kankaanpää emphasises.
Honesty and proactive communication are among the reasons the partnership has lasted for more than a decade.
Fewer surprises, more time for development
When a supplier delivers exactly what they promise, Escarmat can focus on its core work.
“We don’t have to spend time handling complaints or going back and forth; we can concentrate on development work and serving our customers. Working with Veslatec is a service that optimises our own business,” Kankaanpää summarises.
The result: fewer surprises, steady production, and better capacity utilisation.
Consistent quality. Straightforward communication. Reliable deliveries.
That’s why Escarmat trusts Veslatec.
