Major Storm Crashes “Big Boy Truck and Toy Expo”

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Storm Smart’s mascot, ‘Major Storm’ showed up this weekend at the Germain Arena for the Big Boy Truck and Toy Expo, February 13th and 14th. Adults and children alike stopped by the Storm Smart booth to say hello to him and learn a little bit about some of our hurricane protection products. People were fascinated by our Storm Catcher screens and Insulstar Plus foam-seal products and video. Several Storm Smart sales associates were on hand to answer questions and provide information to those who were interested. Quite a few people also signed up to win our 32” HD Television as well. Stay tuned, as we will be letting you know who the winner of that television was on this site.

All in all the show was a great success. Major Storm and the rest the Storm Smart staff looks forward to meeting more of the public at a show near you soon.

Howes

There were nearly 200 people who registered for the Flat-Screen TV Giveaway at the Storm Smart booth during this past weekend’s Home & Garden Show in Punta Gorda, Florida. Bill and Barbara Howe filled out their name and contact information like everyone else, wondering if they could ever win such a prize.

Yesterday, there was a knock at their door and they were greeted with a smile, and a brand new VIZIO Flat-Screen TV! “Have you ever won anything before?” “No!” was their answer. They were obviously thrilled with the TV. Bill and Barbara said “We already have a place for it and it will be put to good use, thank you so much”.

The next opportunity to win such a prize will be at the Big Boy Tech & Toy Show to be held at Germain Arena on Sat Feb 13th and Sun Feb 14th. ‘Major Storm’ the Storm Smart Industries mascot will be there, along with temporary tattoos for the kids, and other fun, free items. The friendly people at Storm Smart hope to see you there.

BMC West Endorses Storm Catcher

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Houston, Texas is the largest new construction market in the country. It is also an area that felt the wrath and devastation of Hurricane Ike. Recently, Warren Clark of BMC West, wrote an article which appeared in the Houston Custom Home Builders Resource Guide. This publication reaches over 30,000 people and is the premier construction publication in the Houston Area. Here is a blurb from the article which is being reprinted with the permission of Warren Clark and BMC:

Storm Smart Industries, the nation’s largest manufacturer of hurricane protection systems, has recently introduced a hurricane wind abatement system in Texas that is already a mainstay in Florida. The system and installation options are practical and easy to use. “It’s a flexible material that protects your home just as a bullet-proof vest protects the human body. Even though you take a hit, the bullet-prove vest keeps you alive. The Storm Catcher storm protection systems are based on the same principals”.

The article goes on to explain all of the benefits of all of the Storm Catcher hurricane screen systems in depth, and is aimed at educating the largest construction market in the country on the merits of our products. We’d like to say thanks to BMC and Warren for writing this article, and hope that those who read it find it informative.
