New investor Summa Equity paves way for further growth Bollegraaf Group
Impact investment firm Summa Equity has acquired a majority stake in the global leader of turnkey recycling solutions, the Bollegraaf Group. The acquisition of Bollegraaf happens about a year after Summa presented their report “Investing in a circular and waste-free Europe”. The report identified how a EUR 230bn investment is needed by 2040 for new physical assets and infrastructure to enable the transition to a circular European economy.
Bollegraaf has a strong impact profile through actively contributing to the EU taxonomy. Summa sees that Bollegraaf fits well in their resource efficiency theme. Optimizing the use of natural resources is one of the spearheads of Summa’s strategy and in this challenge they will from now on join forces with Bollegraaf. Investing from its EUR 2.3bn Summa Equity Fund III, this acquisition leverages Summa’s expertise in enhancing portfolio companies’ strategies to create long-term value and address critical global issues.
