Over 60 Years on Roofing’s Leading Edge...

NEOGARD’s Sprayed-in-Place Polyurethane Foam (SPF) Roof Systems are 100% sustainable, fully adhered and seamless.

The first NEOGARD SPF Roofs were applied in the 1950s.  Since that time, we’ve continued to lead, improve and pioneer innovative SPF Roof Systems with polyurethane, silicone and acrylic roof coatings to protect the insulating membrane. 

Because we manufacture all types of roof coatings at our ISO-9001 certified plant, we can recommend the proper system based on what its intended to be used for.  Case in point – the Superdome in New Orleans, LA.

NEOGARD SPF Roof Systems have documented performance track records coupled with the lowest LIFE CYCLE COST, LEED friendly and Energy Star certified systems,

Superior resistance to impact and fire, mildew resistance, flexibility, adhesion, and ease of application make NEOGARD SPF Roof Systems a excellent protective elastomeric barrier for extending the life of most roofing substrates.

PERMATHANE™ II FR helps the Gulf Coast rebuild...

When it came time for the SPF roof of the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi to be replaced from the damage of Hurricane Katrina, the owner's representative had one request - they wanted the same system that was recently installed on the Superdome. The existing silicone roof had weathered the storm but after 26 years it was time for a face lift. NEOGARD representative Harvey Cooper assisted the architectural firm of Guild Hardy with the PERMATHANE™ II FR specification of the 100,000+ square foot domed arena. Fighting adverse weather conditions and a progressive entertainment schedule at the facility, Coatings Application and Waterproofing of St. Louis, MO delivered a superior job as they have over the last 27 years as one of NEOGARD's top applicators.
