EFLA is the new name of ISPOL – PROJEKT, a Polish consulting company that has been a subsidiary of EFLA since 2019. This marks the fourth company outside of Iceland to adopt the EFLA name, joining its counterparts in Norway, Sweden, and Scotland. EFLA also has a subsidiary in France.

Enhanced worldwide status

“It is a pleasant step that ISPOL has adopted EFLA´s name. This reflects our focus on improving our international position. Since 2019, ISPOL has been a subsidiary of the EFLA group, and the name change strengthens EFLA’s collaboration even further. EFLA’s staff works together across fields, regions, and countries, contributing to a work environment where specialization is used where it is needed. This makes EFLA better equipped to meet multiple challenges,” states Sæmundur Sæmundsson, EFLA´s CEO.

Piotr Gburczyk, CEO of EFLA in Poland, says the name change is a long-awaited milestone. “And reflects EFLA´s current position and aspirations in the Polish and international markets. The EFLA brand becomes present and visible in Poland through the name change. It will allow the development of the current offer aimed at the domestic market but will also make it possible to expand it to other energy and construction projects in the future.”
