Hartwall Capital invests in Vastuu Group's growth

1.2.2023Uncategorized

The family-owned investment company Hartwall Capital has made an investment in Vastuu Group on January 31, 2023. Vastuu Group and its subsidiaries are investing in customer value and growth. The company aims to expand its service offering in the domestic market in the near future and simultaneously prepare for gradual internalization. The financing from Hartwall Capital enables Vastuu Group to invest in achieving company’s long-term strategic goals.

– We are very excited about the cooperation with Hartwall Capital. They will bring us the competence and know-how that our company needs at this stage of development. Furthermore, we appreciate Hartwall Capital as a Finnish family-owned company. We share common values, and we both aim to invest in developing the company’s business in the long term, says Lars Albäck, CEO of Vastuu Group.

–Vastuu Group is in a very interesting phase. By developing and expanding its current service offering, Vastuu Group will unlock an enormous growth potential. The data-sharing technologies developed by the company are ready for commercialization, and Vastuu Group has, according to our view, potential to expand in the global markets, as well. We are happy to take the company to the next stage together with Vastuu Group’s team and the other company owners, says Niko Mokkila, Managing Director and Head of Investments at Hartwall Capital.

Responsibility and transparency as the cornerstones of the business

At Vastuu Group the corporate responsibility plays an important role in company’s strategy and business model and transferring of reliable data is at the very core of its business. The company focuses on providing services, which improve trust, transparency and verified responsibility within the society and which help its customers to comply with their legal obligations. As a neutral partner the company can serve entire industries and act as a bridge-builder in the cooperation between different industries.

– Responsibility and curbing the grey economy are increasingly topical in both the construction and investment industries. Through our investment, we want to help advance both subjects, says Mokkila.

In the company’s service portfolio responsibility can be seen above all in the Reliable Partner service. The service proves the responsible relationship with society and its other actors of both the major players and the private entrepreneurs in the construction industry. It also makes companies’ operations more transparent. Being a Reliable Partner is strong evidence of all that to the entire market.

– Hartwall Capital is a perfect addition to Vastuu Group’s current owners, which mainly consists of real estate and construction industry associations. Vastuu Group will have a strong, family-owned company as a new co-owner, who will actively take part in developing the business and create significant added value for the next development phases. As the company’s name suggests, Vastuu Group helps its customers to act responsibly and transparently. That is not only remarkable for the society, but also a fantastic opportunity for growth, says Jukka Ruuska, Vastuu Group’s Chairman of the Board.

"Responsibility is a way of respecting our heritage"

17.3.2021News

Responsible investments have been one of the cornerstones of Hartwall Capital’s operations from the very beginning. In recent years, we have made efforts to integrate the sustainability aspect even deeper into our strategy, as well as to develop tools for effectively managing the portfolio companies’ sustainability strategies and operations through active ownership. One of the results of our efforts is our recent Responsible Investment Policy, which sets out clear guidelines for Hartwall Capital as well as our portfolio companies.

View our Responsible Investment Policy here (PDF)

Responsible investing is about taking the environment, social and governance principles into account in everything we do. Our sustainability approach is deeply rooted in the values of the Hartwall family: social responsibility is one of the most important values of our owner’s and thus, has guided HC’s operations from the very beginning. Our focus is on building sustainable companies and managing them well in order to create value for our owners, environment, our employees as well as other stakeholders. 

– We make choices that improve our society and promote welfare. Letting environmental and social responsibility guide our investments and ownership practices is a way of respecting our heritage, says Antonia Hartwall, representative of the Owner’s Council and member of the owner family’s seventh generation. 

In 2020, Hartwall Capital signed the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI) and became a member of FVCA, the industry body for the Finnish venture capital and private equity industry. The partner organizations function as additional support for the development of our processes and for increased transparency, among other things through the best practice and well-proven reporting models the partnerships provide access to. The memberships also allow us to observe the development of ESG-related matters in the investment industry in general as well as provide us an access to the forums in which these matters are discussed and further developed. Hartwall Capital is also a member of the FVCA’s ESG Committee. 

– Through responsible investments, we can contribute to a more efficient resource management, sustainable value creation as well as sustainable development, says Peter Therman, Chairman of the Owners’ Council and Deputy Chairman of Hartwall Capital’s Board.  

– Strengthening our ESG-related processes is a contemporary theme. We are not unique in our endeavour: investors are increasingly looking for investments that actively work for a more sustainable future and can offer solutions that have real, tangible positive impact. Sustainability isn’t a niche anymore, says Antonia Hartwall.  

Sustainable investments play an important part of the companies’ risk management processes due to their lower risk profile – however, the lower risk here does not imply lower returns but the contrary. There are several reasons why a strong ESG focus has a positive impact on the financial results. Credibility in sustainability issues, among other, support expansion into existing markets and gaining foothold in new ones. The sustainability requirements placed on suppliers are becoming increasingly stringent – meeting them creates competitive advantage and enables greater strategic freedom for a company.  

– Several sustainability aspects are also directly linked to reduced costs: energy efficiency and a reduced amount of waste and packaging materials, for example, says Peter Therman. 
Focus on sustainability also offers additional personnel related benefits such as attractive recruitment proposal, more motivated staff, and lower staff turnover.

– Integrating a well-thought-out sustainability strategy into the business has no disadvantages whatsoever. We are in the fortunate position that we do not have to start from scratch or make expensive investments to bring our and the portfolio companies’ operations to a sustainable level: Hartwall Capital has a strong background in the area and our recent Responsible Investment Policy has a natural place in our operations, to support our high ambitions, says Antonia Hartwall.
