Tunturi kindergarten building project: the Siparila panels guarantee quality and cost-effectiveness

The Tunturi kindergarten construction project took place during the cold winter months. The project used pre-painted Siparila ARCTIC series LUCID exterior panels, which proved to be an excellent choice for the challenging conditions.

Challenges in Winter Conditions

Siparila's ARCTIC series LUCID facade panels were chosen for the Tunturi kindergarten building project, especially for their quality, delivery time and cost-effectiveness. Siparila's panels were already familiar to Janne Tanhuanpää, the site supervisor, and his team, and their experience with them was positive. The construction project was carried out on a confined plot of land, which brought its own challenges to the construction. The entire building was constructed in a sheltered area, including the façade cladding. The architecture of the building brought its own particularities to the project.

Siparila's fully pre-painted ARCTIC series LUCID exterior panels were chosen for the Tunturi kindergarten project due to the winter construction schedule. "Having the panels pre-painted in winter conditions made construction easier and improved work safety, as the panels did not require separate painting after installation on site," says Tanhuanpää.

There are several factors to consider when choosing exterior cladding panels. "The advantages of Siparila's LUCID exterior cladding panel were excellent surface finish, end grain and wood quality. The delivery of the panel to site at the right moisture level reduced the risk of rotation, and the healthy knots in the panel ensured that there were no weaknesses in the product. These features ensured a high quality and durable end result," says Tanhuanpää.

When the product is right, the job goes well!

During the project, there were no challenges with the façade cladding. "Our experienced installers have installed numerous cladding panels, and once the product is in place, the job goes smoothly." Tanhuanpää also stresses the importance of end-jointing "End-jointing makes installation easier, reduces material waste and ensures neat continuations."

The Tunturi daycare center has successfully reflected the planned appearance and overall outcome. Tanhuanpää mentioned that the building's architecture and appearance have garnered significant praise from passers-by. Observers have remarked that the building is exceptionally beautiful and blends well with its surroundings.

Tanhuanpää is confident that Siparila's products will continue to be favored due to their quality and reliability. He believes that the excellent delivery time, price, and quality/performance ratio make Siparila products a great choice for future projects.

The building project at the Kindergarten tundra is a successful example of combining high-quality materials with good design. Building in winter conditions requires careful planning. The pre-painted panels greatly speeded up the construction process and the end result was a fully finished facade. In large construction projects, the importance of delivery time, the right quality of products and cost-effectiveness is highlighted.
