CAPZA has acquired a minority stake in DI Environnement, a leading French player in hazardous material removal and environmental clean-up services, in a move that highlights growing private equity interest in sustainability-driven sectors, according to a report by Reuters. 

The deal, announced July 18, comes as DI Environnement expands its operations across France and beyond, amid rising demand for de-pollution services and stricter energy efficiency standards. The company reported €110m ($128m) in revenue for 2024.

While financial details were not disclosed, CAPZA’s investment is expected to support the company’s long-term growth strategy and market consolidation efforts. DI Environnement is a specialist in asbestos, lead, and other hazardous material removal—key areas as both public and private sector clients look to decarbonise and retrofit building stock.

The deal also reflects broader sector momentum. According to Precedence Research, the global environmental consulting services market is projected to grow from $46.67bn in 2025 to $92.85bn by 2034.

CAPZA, part of AXA IM Alts, manages approximately €9.1bn ($10.6bn) in assets. This investment aligns with its strategy of backing high-potential mid-sized European companies in resilient, forward-looking sectors.
