Background
Cariitti is a Finnish family business founded by Kari Ruokonen in 1998 and owned now by his son Peter Ruokonen. The name and story of Cariitti originate from its founder's first name and the three Graces of Greek mythology, the Charites, who brought glory, joy and prosperity to people.
Main products and services
As the name implies, Cariitti wants to bring
light and comfort to premises. The selection
includes versatile lighting solutions
for wellness facilities including sauna,
hammam, bathroom, spa and pool areas.
The company manufactures luminaires,
and also a line of sauna benches and
dressing room furniture at its factory in
Finland. In 2022 the sauna collection was
complemented by TAIVE sauna cabins.
The goal is to offer high-quality products
that will last long thanks to both their
premium quality and timeless design.
The product range includes light
spots, indirect linear lighting and lighting
sets made with fibre optic and LED
technology: optical glass fibres for sauna
ceiling lighting, LED lighting for sauna
benches; optical plastic fibres and LED
lighting for spas, hammams, bathrooms
and pools. The standard lighting sets can be accessorized with decorative
light fittings, and customers can have
lighting solutions modified or completely
custom-made to fit their individual needs.
The company has been awarded
the Finnish Key Flag symbol, which
demonstrates that the products
are manufactured in Finland.
Our principle has always been that
lighting is not just about the amount
of light, but also about creating an
atmosphere. We help our customers to
build a comfortable and harmonious
space where both the eye and the
mind rest. The mind and body relax in
wellness facilities, and Cariitti provides
a framework for this with a harmonious
and properly designed lighting.
The company’s values include
Finnishness by having its own
manufacturing unit in Finland, continuity
of the family business and environmental
friendliness by choosing high-quality,
long-lasting materials. In-house
product development and in-production
quality control guarantee high quality
and smooth customer service.
Where in the world
Cariitti operates in Finland and exports to
more than 40 countries worldwide. The
company’s biggest market continues
to be Europe, but its newest markets
are the US and Canada, where Cariitti
offers UL and CSA approved products,
and Japan, where the products are
modified for the local requirements.
