Port of Helsinki, Vuosaari Harbour Center: Automatic Gate System Nov 16, 2009 Port of Helsinki, Vuosaari Harbour Center: Automatic Gate System Visy Oy was selected as the gate technology provider for the Port of Helsinki, Vuosaari Harbour project – a massive undertaking which involved moving and combining two commercial port areas from the center of Helsinki to a new, single, location east of the city. The Vuosaari Harbour project was a Greenfield, the nature of which was the first of its kind in an EU capital. After years of planning, building, and testing, the Vuosaari Harbour Center went live on 24 November 2008. Overnight, and in the midst of a staggering snowstorm, the new port went from 0 to 4,000 gate transactions per day.

Finnish Customs Agency use Visy technology specifically designed for their unique operations.
