Freedom Chemical

Spray-applied polyurea and polyurethane coating systems — seamless traffic deck, podium and below-grade waterproofing, and secondary containment membranes for where sheet membranes can't follow the geometry.

Why We Rep Them

The case for Freedom

Freedom Chemical's FreedomTuff systems are 100% solids, 0 VOC polyurea and polyurethane coatings behind three distinct assemblies: GuardianDeck traffic and parking deck coatings, Guardian-PD below-grade and podium deck waterproofing, and Guardian-Containment secondary containment membranes. Each sets fast, forms one continuous membrane with no seams, and carries its own leak-free warranty term backed by third-party inspection. Freedom Chemical is headquartered in Foothill Ranch, California — inside RRI's own territory. Product and thickness selection is matched to the substrate, chemical exposure, and specification on each project.

Systems We Specify

Cutaway isometric render of a mixed-use building showing a rooftop pool and deck, tennis court, gym, locker rooms, restaurant, mechanical room, and parking garage — the range of spaces Freedom Chemical's coatings protect

One coating technology — pool decks, parking structures, mechanical rooms, rooftop amenities — protecting every surface in this building.

Traffic & Parking Decks

Built to take a beating, every day.

GuardianDeck sprays on for maximum coverage; DefenderDeck applies entirely by hand where spray equipment isn't practical.

GuardianDeck combines a spray-applied polyurea base with hand-applied polyurethane and polyaspartic top coats — no seams, no membrane to puncture, at up to 150 mils dry film thickness, rated for constant water immersion. DefenderDeck skips the spray equipment entirely, hand-applied start to finish at a lighter 44 mils with a quicker return to service — a fit for tight sites or occupied buildings where spraying isn't practical. Both protect concrete from vehicular abrasion, freeze-thaw cycling, and chloride-driven rebar corrosion, while doubling as the waterproofing membrane for whatever's underneath: loading docks, mechanical rooms, rooftop parking, and podium decks over occupied space. Both are SCAQMD-compliant and LEED-eligible (EQ Credit 4.2/4.3).

Below-Grade & Podium Decks

Waterproofing that sets before it can run.

Guardian-PD spray-applies as an instant-set polyurea membrane — planters, split slabs, under-tile, and below grade.

Guardian-PD is a two-component spray polyurea that sets almost instantly, forming a seamless waterproof membrane at up to 112 mils, with a Miami-Dade approved, Class A fire-rated option (ASTM E84 / E108) where code requires it. It's built for the conditions where a sheet membrane's seams are the liability: podium decks, planters, split and between-slab conditions, under tile, and HVAC curbs.

Containment

One leak is one too many.

Guardian-Containment is a spray polyurea built for chemical containment, with warranty terms that scale to how much protection the project needs.

Guardian-Containment sets instantly as a two-component spray polyurea, forming one continuous membrane with no seams for chemicals to find. Warranty terms run 5, 10, or 15 years depending on membrane thickness and project requirements, with a full-time independent third-party inspector on-site — the kind of documentation a containment project actually needs to pass inspection.
