Two business areas are being developed at Turku-Helsinki motorway’s junction 11. YksYkkönen and Paimio Business Park. In addition to these, there are two other business areas in the vicinity of the motorway, which plots can be reserved.
The prices of the plots are currently approximately 40 percent more affordable than other business areas in the region of Turku.
YksYkkönen
Technology that utilises logistics and circular economy will be a significant part of YksYkkönen’s entity. Paimio is at a good hub in terms of logistic processes. More than 40 logistics companies operate in the area. The 13 hectare industrial area of YksYkkönen is in the immediate vicinity of the motorway, and its municipal engineering will be completed by the summer.
Paimion Business Park

The City of Paimio offers first class opportunities for business in accordance with the companies’ needs. Paimio is part of the travel-to-work area of Turku and Salo, where 350,000 people live, and skills are of extremely high standard.
Paimio Business Park offers flexible spatial solutions, and good connections ensure an excellent environment for business operations.
BioGPaimio Oy’s construction of a biogas plant shall be initiated in the vicinity in 2019, which will create opportunities for cooperation and the utilisation of responsible energy.
Logistically logical
Paimio Business Park is located in the immediate vicinity of the motorway, allowing an excellent and quick connection for heavy-duty traffic too to the region’s business concentrations and ports.
Due to its extensive building rights and extremely flexible opportunities of spatial solutions, Paimio Business Park is an excellent location for production, warehouse and logistics companies in particular.
Circular economy project of Paimio and Sauvo — Join!
Paimio Innovation Hub’s first major effort is the mapping and initiation project of circular economy, which has been initiated in Paimio and Sauvo. It seeks companies for the area, which would jointly form value chains for utilising waste materials, such as industrial side flows and agricultural biomasses.
Waste of one company is another company’s raw material. The aim is to create new, profitable business operations by centralising clean tech and green tech companies logistically close to each other. For example, YksYkkönen can become a research laboratory of new circular economy technologies.
At the centre of the plan is a biogas plant, which has been designed to be as carbon-neutral as possible, and the heat and biogas produced by it would be utilised by YksYkkönen’s companies, such as the planned greenhouse. During the first stage of the project, value chains are mapped among the companies of the Paimio and Sauvo region. Thereafter, we will see if there are any operators missing in between, which would allow complete value chains to be formed and a continuous circulation of materials could be achieved. We will search for such companies in other areas of Finland too.
