Our services
Explosion protection documents, ATEX Training, and ATEX Consulting with 40 years of experience.
Why choose Exvira?
We are ATEX experts
We have 40 years of experience in explosion protection. We have also trained authorities working in the field and participated in the preparation of the industry manual (SFS Handbook 59, 2022).
Independent view
We give you an impartial area classification, because we do not supply equipment or technology. We make safe area classifications that save trouble and work in practice.
10-year guarantee: we answer and help
We are committed to helping our customers for 10 years – we will answer all your ATEX-related questions by email free of charge.
Accurate area classification = money savings
We have brought cost savings to many customers when oversized or overcautious EX-areas have been reduced. When the area classification is done accurately, ATEX equipment does not need to be purchased for places where they are not really needed.
40 years of experience
We have made explosion protection documents for over 1,700 work sites and we have a large customer base from different industries across Finland. We know where things can go wrong and how to prevent it.
Customer experiences
"The collaboration has proven to be very effective"
Suomen Sokeri Oy ja Exvira ovat tehneet yhteistyötä jo ennen omaa aikaani, ja kumppanuuden jatkaminen on ollut luontevaa sekä mutkatonta. Yhteistyö on osoittautunut erittäin toimivaksi: asiantunteva, selkeä ja ammattitaitoinen ote on tehnyt työskentelystä sujuvaa ja miellyttävää. Olemme saaneet yhteistyöstä merkittävästi tukea ja päässeet kehittymään yhdessä. Erityisesti koulutukset ovat olleet ansiokkaita. Ammatillisesti mielenkiintoiset esimerkit ja kouluttajien omat kokemukset tuovat sisältöön syvyyttä ja pitävät kuulijat aidosti läsnä.
”We have always been able to rely on Exvira's expert advisory service when we needed help.”

” The training has been praised as comprehensive, practical and easy to understand”
Olemme hankkineet henkilöstöllemme useampana vuonna Exviralta koulutusta ATEX-asioihin. Koulutusta on kehuttu kattavaksi, käytännönläheiseksi ja helposti ymmärrettäväksi, jonka vuoksi olemmekin ostaneet vastaavan koulutuspaketin aina uudelleen tarpeen mukaan.

"Throughout our cooperation, we’ve been very satisfied"
When it came to choosing a partner for our project, we decided on Exvira because we had received excellent feedback from our business partners about their strong expertise and the quality of their experience. That solid reputation gave us confidence right from the start.
"Olemme olleet tyytyväisiä kaikkiin työpanoksiin, mitä Exvira on meille tuottanut"
Tehtaamme on ollut Exviran asiakkaana jo vuosien ajan, sillä Exvira on luotettava yhteistyökumppani. Vuosien varrella olemme teetättäneet ATEX-asiakirjojen päivitystä, konsultoineet erilaisten muutosten vaikutuksista räjähdysvaarallisuusluokituksiin prosessissamme sekä saaneet tehtaallemme räätälöityjä koulutuksia niin tuotannon henkilöstölle kuin asiantuntijoillemme. Olemme olleet tyytyväisiä kaikkiin työpanoksiin, mitä Exvira on meille tuottanut.
