PERI Brasil (legal name: PERI Formas e Escoramentos Ltda.) is the Brazilian operating subsidiary of the German family-owned PERI Group, founded in 1969 in Weissenhorn. Established in Brazil in 1996, the company provides formwork, scaffolding, and shoring systems for concrete construction, serving commercial contractors, infrastructure builders, residential developers, and industrial clients. Operations are anchored by a 66,000 m² headquarters and materials yard in Vargem Grande Paulista (São Paulo), with regional offices in Rio de Janeiro (since 2011) and Porto Alegre (since 2016). The company sells and rents modular product families including TRIO and DUO panel formwork, VARIO GT 24 girder wall formwork, RUNDFLEX Plus circular formwork, RCS rail climbing, CB crane climbing, LPS lightweight enclosure, MULTIPROP slab props, VARIOKIT engineering construction kit, and the PERI UP modular scaffolding system. Reported flagship projects include the Ponte da Integração cross-border bridge (Brazil-Paraguai), the Museu do Amanhã, the Albert Einstein Research Center, and the VIOL Vila Olímpia skyscraper.

PERI Brasil monetizes through three streams: (1) outright sales of formwork and scaffolding systems (one-time license), (2) equipment rental for projects requiring temporary equipment (usage-based), and (3) professional engineering services including design, on-site technical support, and consultation. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with a highly trained technical and commercial engineering team, complemented by a content-marketing strategy showcasing a deep project portfolio. Customers include Latin American construction leader MRV, Itaipava Brewery, Celta (SIX), and developers behind César Pelli and Oscar Niemeyer-designed buildings. The company supplements its core offerings with the System Plus accessory program, partnering with specialty providers such as BPA (waterproofing) and XL Industries (access and transport) to deliver integrated single-source solutions. Certifications include FSC and PEFC chain-of-custody for wood products. PERI Brasil is privately held under the Schwörer family's ownership, with no external PE/VC ownership disclosed.
