Kalaneuvos Oy is the biggest fish smoking plant in Nordic countries. It exports its products for example to Europe and Asia. In 2019, the company doubled the production facilities of the fish processing plant located in Sastamala to more than 11,000 square meters.

The new plant extension utilizes an industrial central cooling system with the aim of achieving better energy efficiency. The heat energy generated by the cooling system is also utilized with the help of heat pumps. The wood chip heating system of the old plant provides back-up for heating.

The plant's heating and cooling system uses Vexve's and Naval's weldable shut-off and balancing valves. The ventilation (heating and heat recovery) equipment also includes X range steel shut-off and balancing valves with press-fit connections.
