Charlene Goh Canatu

“The company is quite diverse with people of different nationalities and races. As a foreigner in Finland, you hear a lot about how difficult it can be to assimilate into a Finnish company or feel welcome at work. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that my colleagues at Canatu were very open and friendly.”

Purpose guides us towards better tomorrows

What is it that drives us forward? That reveals the greater value we aspire to, and helps our employees, collaborators and other stakeholders to connect their own actions to the bigger picture. Carbon nanotubes may be modest in size, yet they enable true transformation in several industries.

That is what we have captured in Our Purpose: Transforming products for better tomorrows with nano carbon.

As a CNT material developer, we are creating something transformative and new. Our core technology is at the heart of everything we do. Working with nano carbon brings together several building blocks for progress, and gives us a versatile and future-proof foundation. The world-changing potential inspires us as Canatu employees, and makes our work relevant to our customers and stakeholders.

“As a tech researcher, the possibility of real-world impact is my constant source of inspiration and motivation. It’s what drew me to Materials Science, and what continues to drive me forward in my work.”

Swetha Ariyadka, Chemist, Canatu

We work with some of the most interesting forerunner companies in the world. In their respective industries, they tap into the potential of new technologies. Our job is to show how CNT will facilitate breakthroughs. The “better tomorrows” is about shaping a future that will be better for us, the people and the planet.

Values reflect who we are

When we defined our core values, we noticed that some of them have been very strong since we started and others are vital right now as we move ahead. We would not be the innovative partner of forerunners without our curiosity to discover. That curiosity would not have turned to an evolving business without our commitment to achieve and ability to find partners with whom we engage in collaboration for impact. And our longevity and persistence derive from our so-called rocket fuel, the passion for progress. See more about what our values mean to us.

Curiosity to discover

Curiosity is deep in our DNA. It’s the spark that fuels innovation, leading to new opportunities. The immense potential of our carbon nanotubes excites us. Curiosity keeps us attuned to where the world is going, and where we can play a part.

Commitment to achieve

Commitment to achieve grounds us, keeping our team focused. It allows us to achieve above and beyond our promises and holds us accountable to both our customers and ourselves.

Collaboration for impact

Collaboration together with colleagues, partners and customers is how our work really takes flight. We collaborate for impact to really find out what works in practice.

Passion for progress

Passion is the fuel that keeps us going and developing. It gets us over the finish line on individual projects and keeps us looking ahead towards future solutions.
