StormTrap

StormTrap LLC an American brand of precast concrete and provides modular, underground stormwater management systems used for stormwater detention, retention, infiltration, and water quality treatment. StormTrap designs underground infrastructure systems for commercial, municipal, transportation, educational, and residential developments throughout the United States and in Ontario, Canada. StormTrap is headquartered in Romeoville, Illinois and is owned by PSP Partners.

History

StormTrap was founded in 2002 by the Hawken family.[1]

In 2018, it was acquired by Warren Equity Partners.[2]

In 2022, PSP Partners, founded by Penny Prtizker, aquired the company.[3]

In 2025, StormTrap acquired Faircloth Skimmer, a manufacturer of surface drain dewatering devices that removes sediment water.[4]

Products

StormTrap manufactures precast concrete systems used for:

  • Stormwater detention (SingleTrap and DoubleTrap)
  • Infiltration systems (SingleTrap and DoubleTrap)
  • Water quality treatment (StormSettler and SiteSaver)
  • Trash and debris capture (TrashTrap and PumpGuard)[5]

Chicago River TrashTrap

StormTrap collaborated with Friends of the Chicago River, Wendella Boats, and Loyola University on the Chicago River TrashTrap project, a floating debris capture initiative designed to intercept litter and floatable waste from the Chicago River before it enters downstream waterways.

The project has been referenced in academic research focused on urban river stormwater pollution, litter reduction, and water quality improvement.[6]

Researchers from Northwestern University have studied stormwater treatment technologies associated with reducing pollutants in urban runoff, including applications related to the Chicago River watershed.[7]

Certifications and Verifications

StormTrap's stormwater treatment technologies have received certifications and verifications from regulatory agencies and independent evaluation organizations. StormSettler received a certification under the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) and a verification from New Jersey Corporation for Advanced Technology (NJCAT).
