Finland's largest wood apartment block project Kuusikko and the Pukki research project

Kuusikko is a construction project comprising six wooden buildings which, when finished, will comprise Finland's largest wood apartment block project. A-Kruunu and TA-Asumisoikeus are working on the construction of a total of 195 residential units in Kuusikko, to be completed in stages in 2021 and 2022.

Kuusikko, which is to be built in the Isokuusi Wooden Town area in Tampere is part of an extensive research project for the University of Tampere. The PUKKI project promoting wood construction as a means of sustainable property development examines the creation of value by networks connected with wooden apartment buildings and the development of circular economy and business activity models from the point of view of wood construction.

One aim of the project is to help achieve the goal set by the City of Tampere to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030. In addition, the city has set a goal of increasing modern wood construction in the Pirkanmaa area and its support for the development of new business activities, skills, and knowledge.
