At Collen, our international operations provide a valuable opportunity to engage with the local customs and traditions of the regions where we deliver projects. Today, we join our colleagues in Sweden in celebrating Fettisdagen.

While historically a day of indulgence before Lent, Fettisdagen is now synonymous with the semla, a traditional Swedish wheat bun filled with almond paste and whipped cream. This celebration of "fika" is a significant part of Swedish culture and offers a moment for teams to come together and mark the occasion.

From our Dublin headquarters to our project sites across Europe, Collen remains committed to fostering a collaborative environment that respects and celebrates the diverse traditions of our people and partners.
