Aisti

Aisti, founded in 2019 in Jyväskylä, Finland, is a technology company specializing in sustainable acoustic solutions for the construction industry. The company has developed innovative wood fiber-based acoustic tiles using a patented foam-forming process. These tiles offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional mineral wool materials, free from plastic binders and irritating fibers. In 2023, Aisti inaugurated its first pilot plant in Jyväskylä to finalize product development and scale up production. The company has since produced approximately 1000 m² of prototype tiles for development and demonstration purposes. Aisti recently secured €29 million in Series A funding to construct its first commercial factory in Kitee, Finland. This facility aims to achieve an annual production capacity of 2.5 million square meters by 2026. The company has already signed off-take agreements worth €6.8 million annually, representing 3% of the Nordic acoustic tiles market. With a team of eight professionals, Aisti focuses on research and development to enhance its foam-forming technology and expand applications beyond acoustic tiles to thermal insulation and packaging materials. The company's mission is to reduce the construction industry's carbon footprint while providing high-performance, cost-effective acoustic solutions that meet modern sustainability standards.
