What is a DuPont™ StormRoom™ with KEVLAR®?
A.A DuPont™ StormRoom™ with KEVLAR® is an in-home aboveground hurricane and tornado shelter. The room is an innovative design created by DuPont engineers using DuPont™ KEVLAR® – a light weight material that is, lb for lb, 5 times stronger than steel. The room consists of wall panels containing DuPont™ KEVLAR® that are connected using structural steel connectors and are attached to a concrete slab foundation with an epoxy anchoring system. An attractive steel door that meets FEMA requirements is used for the entryway. The room can be wired for electricity and cell phones can be used when safely inside. Plumbing can be added if requested.
