Finnwad's factory in Jokela was built in 1920's. It's field was hygiene and medical care products, a business which has seen a major centralization during last decades. Therefore the factory in Jokela became one of those, that were replaced by new and much more efficient plants somewhere in the far East in the 1990's. The building is now empty and it awaits for future, which will probably bring either conversion to flats, or demolition.

	Welcome to Jokela! A similar writing, only extended with the target audience (niggers, gays, civil service faggots and the disabled) in Penttilä, Joensuu became famous, when the Finnish telly reported about the place's "politically" active youth some time ago. So this is Jokela, "Joensuu of Southern Finland".
	Entrance to the Fourth Reich.
	Factory's facade seen from the street. The fact that windows are plywooded, seems promising for the future of the building. In Silent Wall's photos, taken roughly a year earlier, the windows were uncovered. Apparently, city wants to keep the estate in as good shape as possible.
	A bit unusual, square and very thin but yet tall chimney stack stands at the backyard.
	Securitas, police, Supo! A prisoner's obviously escaping!!! Seriously, the prison-related tag might be inspired by the fact that there is a prison in Jokela. It's been converted from an old match factory. Will this building become the new prison block?
	This wing is newer than the original building, which is much neater. This simple and dull limestone brick extension ought to be demolished, should the original factory be converted and preserved.
	All of the sudden, we're in the factory's office premises. Everything has been taken away. Empty and boring.
	Negative thing in boarding the windows is that the interior is now practically pitch black. Even this staircase with entrances to production halls and offices was dark without torches.
	Production hall one.
	Production hall one. Nothing here either, unless broken glass counts.
	Third large hall and just as little details. There is a nice spiral staircase and nice coloured pipes, anyway.
	Boiler room in strange artificial light.
	A door in a door - what an invention.
	All doors leading to the production halls are old and heavy, fire-proof and coarse looking. They suite well to such place.
	Wiring diagram in the distribution board cabin states the exact name of the company that used to run the factory.
	Ladies' room.
	Stairs to the first floor are tidy.
	Really heavy doors and additional bars in front of them... why?
	Large room on the first floor, which has last been used by some kitchen furnishing firm.
	This passage takes down to the yard.
	Painted floor.
	These guys are not from Jokela.
	Automated door it seems to be.
	More blue doors, or actually shutters.
	One more door, which is shit. It says so in the tag. Perhaps writer was frustrated, because the door is locked. Whatever lurks behind will remain a mystery.
	Only from inside you can seen the nice shape and screen division of the windows. It is unbeliavanle that only two screens have been hit. Others are unbroken.
