Perimeter Solutions, the world leader in fire safety chemical solutions, announced that the company’s PHOS-CHEK® FORTIFY® product has been awarded with the 2020 Best Venture Award by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The award was presented to recently acquired LaderaTech for the groundbreaking development of an environmentally friendly and long-lasting fire prevention product. LaderaTech and PHOS-CHEK FORTIFY were selected from more than 150 companies that submitted applications and pitched their cleantech innovations to a panel of judges made up of industry experts and investors.
Last month, Perimeter Solutions acquired PHOS-CHEK FORTIFY when it purchased LaderaTech, a Colorado-based biomaterials company with commercial technology in wildfire prevention and the delivery of agriculture chemicals. Edward Goldberg, CEO of Perimeter Solutions had the following to say about LaderaTech’s award:
“We’re thrilled to receive this award from one of the country’s most transformative research facilities. The development of environmentally sound technology and products is an important activity at Perimeter. The award further validates our belief that the PHOS-CHEK FORTIFY product offers an effective solution in preventing wildfires that will strengthen Perimeter Solution’s commitment to bring the world’s best fire safety technology to the market,” he said. Perimeter Solutions is also leading efforts in the race to create high-performing fluorine-free fire suppressant technology,” he added.
PHOS-CHEK FORTIFY is an innovative technology that offers long-lasting proactive and preventative wildfire management solutions to public utilities, municipalities and state and federal agencies. The product can be applied in a single treatment to protect against wildfires throughout peak fire season.
The award was presented as part of NREL’s 25th annual Industry Growth Forum, a premier event for cleantech entrepreneurs, investors, and experts from industry to build relationships, showcase innovative technologies, and identify disruptive business solutions.
