Storm Damage Mitigation

Every year hurricanes and tornadoes cause billions of dollars in damage to public and private property. When these events occur many take shelter in closets, bath tubs, and other makeshift ‘safe areas’. With much of the damage caused by flying debris and high winds these locations do not provide the safety and security that Amidon Shield can provide.

Amidon Shield protects infrastructures, and those who seek safety inside during these terrible events. Amidon Shield achieves this by absorbing the flying debris and projectiles, and eliminating secondary debris, or shrapnel. This is unlike standard concrete mixes. These secondary bits of concrete can be just as harmful to anyone near the area of impact. Through careful engineering AMIDON SHIELD will absorb small objects and absorb the energy of larger objects.

You can use Amidon Shield to build a safe room, fortify existing rooms and buildings, or to build the exterior walls of a house. Whether building from scratch, or modifying an existing structure, Amidon Shield can provide you with peace of mind.
