Latham Group, Inc. Releases Second Annual Environmental, Social and Governance Report

LATHAM, N.Y., Nov. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Latham Group, Inc. (“Latham” or “the Company”) (Nasdaq: SWIM), the largest designer, manufacturer and marketer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America, Australia and New Zealand, today announced the release of its 2022 Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Report.

“Our commitment to quality and service define everything we do at Latham, including our efforts to do right for the planet and make a positive impact for our people and our communities,” said Scott Rajeski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Latham. “I am incredibly proud of our efforts in 2022 as we continued to embed ESG into our culture, processes, and decision-making and take important steps to measure and report on our progress. Advancing our ESG strategy remains an important priority for our Board of Directors and senior management team, and we look forward to continuing to deliver on that commitment in the years to come.”

As highlighted in the report, Latham:

  • Lowered VOC emissions levels in fiberglass production through modernized production processes, including at our new manufacturing plant in Kingston, Ontario;
  • Established a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions baseline against which we can measure emissions reduction progress and set targets and goals over time;
  • Curtailed the amount of waste and scrap we produce through implementing standardized processes across production lines;
  • Achieved record levels of employee engagement as part of a comprehensive plan to address employee feedback; and
  • Introduced several safety initiatives that contributed to reduced key health and safety-related incident rates year-over-year.

Latham’s second annual ESG report is part of the Company’s commitment to maintain annual reporting on its ESG strategy and performance. Latham’s ESG strategy and reporting references and aligns to globally recognized reporting standards, including the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (“SASB”).
