Patria’s Investment in Finland
Patria has committed a significant investment of 40 million euros (approximately $43 million) to enhance its production capabilities at the Hämeenlinna facility in Finland. This ambitious project aims to double the current output of armored vehicles, reflecting the growing demand in the defense sector. The expansion will involve the construction of a new production plant, the establishment of a surface treatment area, and various upgrades to existing facilities, with full operational capacity expected by 2027.
The preparations for this construction are already underway, as Patria responds to strong market demand for its armored vehicles. By boosting production capacity, the company seeks not only to fulfill existing orders but also to position itself for new contracts. This strategic investment is anticipated to bolster the defense technological and industrial capabilities within the European Union.
