Dynaset Oy (Ltd.) was founded in 1986 by Mr. Reijo Karppinen. The founder, fresh and innovative engineer, had the idea of using hydraulics from carrier machines to provide power to other equipment as well. This key idea has been the main principle in all Dynaset products since. Basically everything Dynaset does is based on one of the three product lines: electricity, high pressure water and pressured air. Thus, the very descriptive company slogan “Powered by hydraulics” is still more than suitable.

Dynaset has indeed been powered by hydraulics: it has grown from a modest one-man company to the market leader of the world in its wide branch of business. The growth during the 20 year history has been remarkable: the turnover has increased by about 20 per cent annually for years. The Dynaset factory, built in 2001, got an expansion already in 2005: extra space was needed to design, develop, assemble, test and store more than 200 different products in the Dynaset product family.

Thanks to extremely high quality and innovativeness of Dynaset products, the company has been able to successfully expand its business outside Finland. The company currently has offices in the Great Britain, Australia and China, and its products are being sold directly to more than 40 countries. About 90 per cent of Dynaset’s products are exported: 70 percent directly and 20 per cent through Finnish producers using Dynaset equipment in their products sold abroad.

It is no wonder that Mr. Karppinen has received many awards for his accomplishments as an entrepreneur. In 2004 he was nominated “Entrepreneur of the Year” in Pirkanmaa region. As a part of the company’s 20 year festivities in June 2006, Mr Karppinen received “The Golden Entrepreneur Cross” medal from the Finnish Entrepreneurs’ Association.

As early as 1994 Dynaset won “The Most Innovative Enterprise of the Year” in Finland’s Häme region. The company has been certified with the highest credit rating classification from the year 2000. In 2005 Dynaset was awarded a certificate of honor for great success and extraordinary operation in the Productive Idea competition. In 2008, Dynaset received the regional Enterpreneur of the Year award. The company has also received many export and other awards along the years.
