About
Beacon Finland was founded in 1987 by Tuija Hörkkö, Raimo Majama, Pyry Vainio and Kurt Lindborg, all of whom had previously worked for shipyards and other marine companies. Tuija Hörkkö remains the owner, and the company is privately owned and independent.
In the 1990s the company began marketing propeller nozzles and the JAK® ATB Coupling System, invented by Jaakko Kallio, to which Beacon Finland holds exclusive rights. In 1997 the first retractable thruster canisters were designed with Global Marine (Transocean) for two drillships and installed at Harland & Wolff in Belfast. In-house experts cover hydrodynamics, ship propulsion, ship theory, structural strength and hydraulics, supported by freelance designers and partner companies.
