Reliance
Supply Company
was founded in Fort
Lauderdale, Florida in November of 1950.
In the early years, as today, the company both manufactured and
distributed products for the construction industry.
In
the first two decades, the primary product manufactured was an integral waterproofing admixture for concrete slabs to prevent the absorption of
water through a floor. From
this evolved the development of concrete coatings and curing sealers.
In the sixties, the rapid boom of single family homes gave birth
to the swimming pool as an industry of its own. Coatings to decorate and protect the pool decks became a new
field for Reliance Supply. Keystone
evolved into chattahoochee and in the 1970’s stamped and patterned
concrete became surfaces that demanded a new generation of concrete
sealer.
The
1980’s and 1990’s saw the concrete industry innovate with acrylic
modified cement toppings and interlocking pavers. Covering large recreational areas of hotels and condominiums. Reliance Supply created some of the first toppings and coating
systems to properly protect these new products.
From
Disney World to Sheraton Hotels, from the Middle East to the Caribbean
Islands, our coatings and decking systems are designed to provide beauty
and protection to the many faces of concrete whether it be concrete
factory floors or penthouse balconies. We look forward to being an innovative leader in this
ever-changing market through the next millennium.
