Champion Door's 30-year journey - Success brought on with internationalization and development

Founded in 1992, Champion Door Oy celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.

The company's roots go back to 1974, when Viljo Hosio started a business and founded Nivalan-Kaihdin Ky. Over the years, Champion Door Oy has developed from a family-owned company manufacturing solar screen products into an internationally acclaimed manufacturer of fabric fold-up doors and partitions walls for large applications.

Champion Door designed its first large shipyard and hangar doors in 1998. At the same time, the company developed a groundbreaking thermally insulated fabric fold-up door and later several new technically exceptional solutions. International demand for products grew rapidly. After the turn of the millennium, the company decided to focus solely on making large doors and in 2005 changed its name to Champion Door.
