Perimeter Solutions (NYSE: PRM), a leading global manufacturer of high-quality firefighting products and lubricant additives, today announced that it has issued its inaugural Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Standard Factsheet. The newly announced report provides insight into Perimeter Solutions’ multi-faceted approach to enhance, advance and regularly communicate its sustainability strategy and environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance. It is available to view online.
“Perimeter Solutions is an innovative and evolving organization. In order to remain successful, we realize the importance of embedding strong sustainability priorities within our business operations,” says Edward Goldberg, CEO of Perimeter Solutions. “Over the past two years, our senior management team has worked to enhance our ESG strategy to align with the broader transformation of our company.

Perimeter Solutions fire safety products also require dramatically less water to be effective, reducing the amount of water customers use while protecting a valuable natural resource. Internally, Perimeter Solutions has taken steps to increase recycling, made capital investments to reduce the amount of energy used in its manufacturing process, and increased the use of e-records to reduce the Company’s carbon footprint.

All recruiting, payment, performance, and promotion decisions are based on merit, without discrimination on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, age, family status, ethnic origin, nationality, disability, or religious belief. Women represent approximately 19% of Perimeter Solutions’ total workforce. Members with diverse backgrounds comprise 33% of the Company’s Board. At the community level, Perimeter Solutions devoted 500,000 hours of dedicated service to forest fire remediation.
