About StormMeister® Flood Protection

StormMeister® Flood Protection was founded in the UK in 2010 with the specific aim of solving the problems presented by conventional flood doors which are difficult to operate. StormMeister® director Malcolm Snape is an engineer with over 30 years experience of manufacturing products for the construction industry and it was whilst working in the Tropical Rain Forest of West Africa he came up with the novel idea of using the hydrodynamic power of floodwater to seal flood doors.

StormMeister® use ethically sourced timber from traceable places of origin some of which are in Nigeria. Pictured below is a logging camp in Akwa Ibom State, note the lack of machinery! Much of the work is manual and carried out by local people on a cooperative basis so that the whole community benefits.
