ere you will see 90 windows to the history of Uponor Corporation. They tell the story of an international organisation with a colourful 90-year manufacturing history. The foundations were laid by Aukusti Asko-Avonius and his innovative entrepreneurial spirit which helped Asko and Upo to become two of the great Nordic enterprises. In the 1980s, the company was taken under investor control and developed into a conglomerate of ten different branches. Asko aimed to make its way abroad through furniture and Upo through household appliances. In the 1990s, the conglomerate was dismantled and resources were focused on plastic pipes. This proved to be a wise decision. In 2008, Uponor is the global market leader in its business segments.
