Global manufacturer of high-quality firefighting products and lubricant additives, Perimeter Solutions, has announced Jeff Emery as its President of Global Fire Safety. This newly created role will see Emery responsible for the Fire Suppressant and Wildfire businesses at Perimeter Solutions.

Emery joins Perimeter Solutions after serving as the Vice President and General Manager of Industrial Automation for the Americas at Norgren. Prior to that, he spent 10 years with Scott Safety, leader in high performance safety equipment for firefighters, military personnel and industrial workers.

Following 3M’s acquisition of Scott Safety, Emery led the global business unit within 3M through a period of significant growth and business integration.

In addition to his professional roles in fire safety, Emery has also served on the advisory board of the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (NFFF), as well as the Board of Directors for Nevada Nano and Fire 20/20, a non-profit organization promoting diversity in fire services.

Commenting on his new role, Emery said: “Fire safety has been an important part of my professional and personal life for years, and I am very happy to be working for an organization where I can support Perimeter’s mission of saving lives and protecting communities. Perimeter Solutions is highly respected throughout the industry as a trusted and innovative company. Their experience in fire safety is unmatched, and I am anxious to start contributing to the company’s future growth.”

Edward Goldberg, CEO of Perimeter Solutions, added: “As we face an increasingly challenging fire landscape, it is critically important that we continue to provide the exceptional, reliable products and services our customers count on from Perimeter Solutions.

“We must also continue to innovate to deliver new solutions that help save lives and protect property. Jeff brings years of experience and industry knowledge along with a passion for serving the firefighting community. He’ll be a great addition for Perimeter as we move forward, and I am excited to welcome him to our Management Team.”
