paper mill lay at the southwestern end of the pitch.

The name (lit. the factory pitch) derives from UPM's ownership of the stadium (until being sold in 2014) as well as the stadium's proximity to and open view of the paper mill characteristic to the town of Valkeakoski.[2]

The turf was changed from natural grass to artificial in November 2014.[3]
