Fire Safety Global Market Leader Expands its Solutions Offering to Fire Suppression and Chemical Industries <\/strong><\/p>\n

ST. LOUIS, MO<\/em> \u2013 Perimeter Solutions, the global leader in the production of fire retardants, foams, and water enhancing gels, along with a wide range of services for managing wildland, industrial, municipal, and military fires, today announced it has completed the purchase of a group of companies in Post Falls, Idaho, including First Response Fire Rescue (\u201cFirst Response\u201d), River City Fabrication (\u201cRCF\u201d) and H&S Transport.<\/p>\n

As the manufacturer of PHOS-CHEK\u00ae<\/sup> Long-Term Fire Retardant, used by the USDA Forest Service, CalFire and many other fire management agencies around the world, for prevention and suppression of wildland fires, Perimeter Solutions plans to integrate the three businesses within its existing manufacturing and service ecosystem to expand its technology and solutions offering in the fire suppression sector.<\/p>\n

First Response was established in 2003 by Shannon and Laura Horn as an independently owned and operated service company that provides equipment, field service, and distribution of parts and supplies for fire suppression operations.\u00a0 First Response, with a fleet of mobile equipment, is a key service supplier to the USDA Forest Service and CalFire.\u00a0 Since its inception, First Response, in partnership with the PHOS-CHEK business, oversees operations at more than 126 wildland fire airbases throughout the United States.\u00a0 The company, strategically manages and distributes equipment and fire retardant to assist in wildland fire suppression.<\/p>\n

Established in 2009, RCF is a leading fabricator of chemical equipment, structural steel and specialty metal products.\u00a0 RCF is a value-add supplier of tanks and other fabricated equipment to the wildland fire market.\u00a0 In addition, RCF produces emergency response trucks and other firefighting systems for wildland fire management use.<\/p>\n

H&S Transport, established in 2003, facilitates heavy equipment and transportation services for the wildland fire market and is a key service provider to Perimeter Solutions.<\/p>\n

According to Edward Goldberg, Perimeter Solutions CEO, \u201cThese companies, added to the Perimeter Solutions family, greatly increase our ability to offer and supply our customers the products and services they need to accomplish their mission.\u00a0 Our goal is to help the firefighting community save lives and protect property by delivering quality products and exceptional services.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a great cultural and strategic fit with Perimeter Solutions.\u00a0 As we looked for the right partner to grow and expand our wildland fire management services, it was important to find a partner whose core values align with ours,\u201d stated First Response President, Shannon Horn.\u00a0 \u201cPerimeter Solutions core values of client service excellence, family first, accountability, and high integrity are values we both share.\u201d<\/p>\n

The companies operate out of a couple of facilities totaling 75,000 square foot under roof on eight acres of land.\u00a0 With multiple service bays, and dedicated staff, First Response is well respected as a one-stop shop for wildland fire suppression supplies.\u00a0 Perimeter Solutions will retain the management, staff and service technicians of First Response, RCF and H&S Transport.\u00a0 The Post Falls facilities will become a new operational site under the company\u2019s Fire Safety Group with Shannon Horn assuming the new role of Director, Government Contracts and President of River City Fabrication.<\/p>\n
