Rakennustieto PIM – Connect Product Data to Rakennustieto Standards Automatically

Rakennustieto is a key source of standards, requirements, and guidelines for the construction industry. But what if you want to align your own products with that same structure?

What is Rakennustieto – and why is it important from a product information perspective?

The Rakennustieto.fi service compiles RT cards, RYL guidelines, design guides, and building regulations used by construction professionals from planning to implementation. These documents define what kind of information is expected from products, how it should be presented, and what technical requirements must be met. If your product data doesn't meet these expectations – it won't be used.

The traditional challenge: product data doesn't speak the language of Rakennustieto

Often, manufacturers’ and wholesalers’ product data is scattered: in ERP systems, Excel files, or managed through e-commerce platforms. This means the data isn't aligned with RT/RYL structures, making it hard to use in Rakennustieto-type services – and unusable as reference material for design or construction sites.

Pimmix PIM solves the compatibility issue – automatically
