Valmet

Valmet Oy was a Finnish state-owned industrial conglomerate.

Valmet (originally Finnish: Valtion Metallitehtaat — English: State Metalworks) was formed in 1951, when the state of Finland decided to group their various factories working on war reparations to the Soviet Union under one company. Valmet and the factories fused with it produce a wide array of products including paper machines, board machines, aeroplanes, automobiles, Diesel engines, locomotives, trams, trolleybuses, weapons and everyday household appliances. Valmet merged with Rauma company in 1999, and the current Metso Corporation was created.
