Catena works purposefully to achieve a sustainable and profitable business, which includes a sustainable and climate-friendly way of working. In March, Catena took out a new credit facility with green terms with Handelsbanken. The facility is for financing two properties – Jordbromalm 4:41 in Haninge, which has an energy performance certificate rating of B, and Glasblåsaren 14, Linköping, which has an energy performance certificate rating of F. Jordbromalm 4:41 currently meets the requirements for green classification. The ambition for Glasblåsaren 14 is to transform the property during the term of the loan so that it also becomes sufficiently energy efficient for green classification.
Catena's long-term ambition is to achieve net zero in terms of greenhouse gas emissions for its entire operations, including Scope 3, by 2030.
“At Catena, we’re pleased to embark on a new business relationship with Handelsbanken, who we have worked with before and appreciate as a long-term player,” says David Silvesjö, Chief Treasury Officer, Catena. “Together we can make several positive contributions to sustainable operations. The financial sector has a major opportunity to influence development in a more climate-friendly direction, and as a borrower, we feel a great deal of responsibility to do our bit in this regard.”
