Global Felt Technologies: 4.4 TCR = 132% of Felts, nonwoven, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Global Felt Technologies safety composite

Global Felt Technologies scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 10%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
