What makes Vaisala Special
Vaisala's rich history traces back to the 1930s when Professor Vilho Väisälä, the company's founder, pioneered key principles of a radiosonde. Established in 1936 in Finland, Vaisala initially manufactured radiosondes in the basement of a Helsinki residential building. From this humble beginning, the company has grown into a global leader in various measurement fields.
Professor Väisälä's journey began in 1931 when he discovered a fallen Russian radiosonde. Impressed by its use of radio technology for observation, he, being an innovator, aimed to elevate it to his quality standards. By 1936, Väisälä had finalized his groundbreaking innovation, leading to the founding of Vaisala. The first radiosonde pieces were sold to MIT, marking the birth of a global technology pioneer.
Today, headquartered in Vantaa, Finland, Vaisala is a prominent global player in weather, environmental, and industrial measurements. With a workforce of over 1,850 people, the company exports 98% of its production to 150+ countries. Rooted in curiosity, a passion for overcoming challenges, and an exceptional ability to innovate, Vaisala continues its mission of Observations for a better world, building on over 80 years of experience.
