The production costs aren’t compatible with the neighbouring low-cost countries and so the production lines have moved to the Baltics or the Far East. However, the clothing retail chains are flourishing. Despite the economical crisis the people still buy clothing and new retail chains are entering the market. Many of the clothing retail chains are Scandinavian, e.g. Vero Moda, H&M, Gina Tricot, Dressmann, Carlings, Cubus and the latest: Bik Bok. In addition to these, a large part of clothing is bought from hypermarkets and department stores. According to the market leader in shopping centres, Citycon, by 2016 twenty new retailers are expected to enter the markets. The textile and fabric retail sector is dominated by Eurokangas Oy. The company also imports fabrics. This company has stores across Finland. FINLAND Finland has survived well in the current economical crisis in the EU. Despite this, the crisis has had a negative effect on the Finnish markets and the number of investments has fallen. BASIC INFORMATION • Population: 5,4 million (Helsinki metropolitan area: 1,25 million) • Area: 385,000 km² • Languages: Finnish (90%), Swedish (5.4%) • Form of government: Republic • Member of the EU since 1995 KEY FIGURES The gross domestic product grew 2.7% in total in the year 2011. It has been predicted the GDP will grow 2.6% the next year. Macro-economic indicators GDP per capita, EUR 35,000 (approximately) Average annual inflation, % 2.8% (June 2012) Clothing and textile sector in Finland| November 2012 _____________________________________________________________ 5 Also the investments, exports and imports grew during the last year: • Investments 6.8% • Exports 2.6% • Imports 5.7% The amount of unemployed has stayed on the same level as in July 2011. The employment of the young adults has improved by two percent compared to last year. Labour market Unemployment rate, % 6.9% (July 2012) Unemployment rate 11.7 (July 2012) (15-24 years old), % THE CLOTHING AND TEXTILE SECTOR The Finnish clothing industry consists mostly of small and medium sized companies which employ people locally. The Finnish clothing industry is versatile. There are companies producing clothing for various purposes: day-to-day and festive clothing, sportswear and professional and protective clothing for firemen, nurses, builders etc. There is also production of high quality leather and fur clothing. The Finnish textile sector is nowadays very limited. Most of the production has been moved to the low-cost countries in Eastern Europe and Asia. The various training programmes in the field direct the students to the entrepreneurship and design. In addition to these, textile engineer and technician training can be found around Finland. 6 ____________________________________________________________________________ The clothing sector in Finland focuses on the design of the product. The production is often carried out either in the neighbouring low-cost countries, Southern Europe or in the Far East. The Finnish production lines have been layed off due to high production costs. The local clothing production could not answer to the very quick changes and the demand of flexibility of the modern fashion industry. CLOTHING INDUSTRIES AND EMPLOYMENT The clothing industry employs approximately 2,000 people in Finland (excluding the clothing retail sector). The textile industry employs approximately 8,000 people in Finland. Clothing and textile sector in Finland| November 2012 _____________________________________________________________ 7 CLOTHING AND TEXTILE IMPORTS Due to the limited local production, most of the clothing and textiles are imported. The value of the clothing and textile retail is appr. 3,4 billion euros. 8 ____________________________________________________________________________ Index 2005 = 100 CLOTHING AND TEXTILE EXPORTS The Finnish clothing brands are often known for the high quality and most of the clothing produced is exported. In the past a large part of the Finnish clothing made in Finland was imported to the Soviet Union area in which the branding was not necessary for the products to sell. Still nowadays Russia is the most important export country for Finnish clothing and textiles. As Russia recently became a member of the World Trade Organization, the clothing and textile exports to the East are expected to grow. Other important export countries for the industry are Germany and Sweden. Clothing and textile sector in Finland| November 2012 _____________________________________________________________ 9 10 ___________________________________________________________________________ THE FINNISH CLOTHING PRODUCTION There are a few companies which can be stated to be the most Finnish: Virke, Nanso, Amise and Turo Tailor. As the production chain in the clothing industry is very long, most of these players do not produce everything in Finland, but the head quarters and decision making is located in Finland.

Previous records of the species in the Baltic Sea were from Sweden, Denmark, Germany and Poland. Telmatogeton japonicus is an alien species introduced to Europe from the Pacific Ocean. It probably uses shipping as the vector, since in north-western Europe it has first been detected near large seaports. This was also the case in the Gulf of Finland. Our findings suggests that the species’ distribution extends further northeast in the Baltic Sea than understood before, and that the species is able to establish viable populations into fresh-brackish (salinity < 4 ‰) coastal habitats. Key words: Telmatogeton japonicus, Chironomidae, pupal exuviae, Gulf of Finland Benthic macroinvertabrate communities in the 2005; Raunio 2008) to assess chironomid littoral and sub-littoral zones in the Gulf of community composition in three areas in the Finland (Baltic Sea) are rather poorly known, as Gulf of Finland (Figure 1).

L. 2008: Air pollution and PEF measurements of children in the vicinity of a steel works. Boreal Env. Res. 13: 93–102. The effects of short-term changes in particulate air pollution on the respiratory health of symptomatic children living near a steel works at Raahe, Finland, were assessed to deter- mine whether particulate air pollution is associated with adverse respiratory effects, and whether specific sources of air pollution are responsible for these effects. A screening ques- tionnaire on respiratory symptoms was distributed to 1355 primary school children during the winter, asking about lower respiratory symptoms (wheezing, attacks of wheezing, dry cough, asthma). 56 symptomatic children (34 with asthma and 16 with dry cough) were followed up for four months with measurements of daily peak expiratory flow (PEF).
