Hide AdEarlier this month, Carclo announced it had reached a formal agreement with the pension trustee regarding the level of pension contributions to be paid by the group until January 2021.
This enabled Carclo to reach outline agreement on an extension of its existing borrowing facilities for the same period.
On Tuesday, Carclo confirmed that formal banking documentation was subsequently entered and it now has financing in place until January 2021. The board said it believes the revised terms of the extended facilities include covenants and pricing which are appropriate to the firm's current circumstances.
