Context

DI Environnement opened its capital to a financial partner for the first time by welcoming Capza as a minority shareholder (holding a 5% stake). The transaction involved an investment of over €30 million through a mix of equity and non-dilutive rate instruments from the Flex 6 fund. The strategic rationale is to shift from purely organic growth to an aggressive "buy-and-build" strategy, with the ambition of doubling the company's size within five years. The deal was complemented by a senior debt package arranged by BPCE and Crédit Agricole. The focus will be on diversifying into adjacent decontamination activities, consolidating the French territory, and initiating international expansion into neighboring countries with similar regulatory frameworks.
