30+ years building an industrial legacy
James Riggins is the Founder and Lead Spec Solutions Partner at LibertyCES (Liberty Chemical Equipment & Supply Inc.), a California-based industrial chemical equipment and systems engineering company serving water treatment plants, municipalities, and industrial facilities nationwide.
Previously at Harrington, James founded LibertyCES to provide specialized engineering partnerships rather than catalog distribution — reviewing every project's real process conditions himself before a single part number gets recommended.
"I'm not in this to move boxes. I'm here to build an industrial legacy — systems that run without compromise and clients who trust us for life."
Spec-first engineering partner specializing in chemical feed systems, pump skid design, chemical storage tanks, industrial piping, and SCADA-integrated controls
Expert in material compatibility verification, hydraulic calculations, and compliance-focused system design
Known for handling aggressive chemistry — sulfuric acid, sodium hypochlorite, ferric chloride — and mission-critical applications
