StormArmour® Highlighted by Florida’s Emergency Management Director

by Regina Miyar on Sep 05 2025
We’re proud to share that StormArmour® was recently featured in Politico’s Florida Playbook as part of an exclusive interview with Kevin Guthrie, Executive Director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management. As hurricane season begins, Guthrie outlined his top three preparedness tips for Floridians — and one of them was StormArmour®. StormArmour®: A Trusted Hurricane Prep Tool In the article, Guthrie drew attention to StormArmour® as a highly effective solution for preventing rain from entering homes and condos through sliding glass doors and windows. He explained: “Another tool Guthrie is drawing attention to is called Storm Armour, one that’s extremely effective in preventing rain from coming in sideways through sliding glass doors and windows. Think of it as working like a sandbag,” Guthrie said. What makes StormArmour® especially important is its role in condos, where water intrusion in upper-level units can seep down into lower levels, compounding storm damage. “It takes a handful of minutes to install,” Guthrie added, noting that StormArmour® can help avoid tens of thousands of dollars in potential storm damage. Built for Homes, Condos, and Peace of Mind Retailing at $585, StormArmour® offers an affordable, reusable, and proven way to block up to 99% of water intrusion through sliding glass door tracks. Officials and emergency managers alike see it as a smart alternative to sandbags — one that installs in minutes, stores compactly, and delivers lasting protection. By highlighting StormArmour®, Guthrie reinforced the importance of private-public partnerships in preparing Florida for stronger, more frequent storms. Be Ready Before the Storm We’re honored that Florida’s top emergency management leader is recognizing StormArmour® as part of the state’s hurricane readiness conversation. As Guthrie emphasized, being prepared is the best defense.
