Markus Tähtinen

Logistics Specialist

The coronavirus pandemic was still going strong when Markus Tähtinen started as Logistics Specialist at UPCAST OY, so it was not a perfect time to begin a new career, but with experience and clear and working inventory management everything has gone well.

Our legacy – Original UPCAST®

The upward continuous casting method, better known as the UPCAST® system, was originally developed within the Finnish Outokumpu Group in the late ’60s. The outcome resulted from a synthesis of innovative thinking and long production experience.

Always green. Now greener.

UPCAST® technology in itself, has always been an environmentally friendly process. Just electricity, compressed air and a cooling water circulation are needed to keep the process running

The world changed and we with it

The corona virus has caused a lot of changes in the world economy. Some areas have been hit harder and others not so severely, some almost like with silk gloves. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic is globally not yet over, we can already state from UPCAST’s part that we have survived well through this time.
