The handprint of Darekon, Vallox\u00b4s component supplier, is displayed for example in MyVallox control panel. The co-operation that started with baby steps has grown during the years. It emphasizes quality, reliability of delivery and will to develop together.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vallox purchases materials and components for production needs from approximately 110-120 suppliers of various sizes. Relevant in the procurement is to find partners who share the same values with Vallox: reliability of delivery, tested quality and excellence in service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finnish family-owned company Darekon Oy Ltd<\/a> is of the most important component suppliers for Vallox. The company, which focuses on industrial electronics and mechanics, employs about 300 people. It manufactures for example motherboards for ventilation units, CO2-sensors and Control panels for Vallox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Darekon\u00b4s Sales Director Petri Kettunen<\/strong> describes the collaboration that began in 2014 fruitful and functional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Our cooperation started very small and it has grown more and more significant over the years. There are many similarities in our practices, such as uncompromising quality and testing, and a common desire to evolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testing ensures the quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every Vallox ventilation unit is tested on the assembly line before it is delivered to the customer. Testing is part of quality assurance. The same uncompromising testing is done by Darekon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-We have designed and executed our own testing system in collaboration with Vallox. By testing the components, we ensure their quality and functionality, Kettunen describes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Sari Ponkala<\/strong>, Vallox\u00b4s Purchasing and Quality Manager, close cooperation with specialists in their field enables the combination of the best know-how and strengthens Vallox’s operations.

\n According to Sari Ponkala and Petri Kettunen, the cooperation between Vallox and Darekon emphasizes reliability of delivery, quality and the desire to develop.\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

The continuity of cooperation and the need to develop something new is also praised by Kettunen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-We at Darekon are very pleased with what we have done together and hopefully it has been passed on to Vallox as well. We both have firmly adhered to keeping what is promised!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strong Vallox-making for 50 years<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vallox\u2019s 50th anniversary year coincides with a global corona pandemic, which has posed challenges for both Vallox procurement and component supplier. Challenges have been overcome through close communication. According to Kettunen, Vallox’s 50-year anniversary is part of a strong continuum:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Even based on the stories of the anniversary year, Vallox’s 50-year journey has had some challenges, but it has survived them and will certainly continue to do so. For the anniversary year – which coincided with the corona pandemic – less turbulence would certainly have been desired. But perhaps this year also reflects Vallox well: by focusing on essential, safe daily activities, the next 50 years may be even more successful. Congratulations to everyone involved!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
