Cura Terrae, an environmental services company backed by private equity group Palatine, has ramped up its expansion plans with the acquisition of Scottish climate consultancy EnviroCentre.
Founded in 2022, Sheffield-based Cura Terrae works with corporate clients to ensure they are meeting environmental requirements.
The acquisition of EnviroCentre, with locations in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Inverness and Aberdeenshire, supports Cura Terrae’s expansion plans as it aims to offer a comprehensive approach to climate services across the UK.
“This acquisition brings complementary expertise and geographic reach to the group, while adding a team of people whose values closely align with our own,” Nick Dilworth, chief executive of Cura Terrae.
“The addition of EnviroCentre to the Cura Terrae group will provide fantastic opportunities for our people to flourish with clients benefiting from a greater depth and breadth of services.”
It is the group’s fifth acquisition since its formation and its largest transaction to date, though the exact terms have not been shared.
“Joining Cura Terrae is an exciting step for our team,” added Duar Fleming, MD of EnviroCentre.
“To grow the impact of our work we wanted to find a partner who understood our culture, respected our people, and shared our long-term goal toto enhance the environment.”
EnviroCentre’s 75-person team will form the Land and Nature division, where it can deploy its geo-environmental, water management and engineering expertise.
