Our Purpose
Preparation is everything
Built to withstand New Zealand’s toughest conditions, our purpose built fully customisable emergency container pods are designed to be placed in high-risk environments prone to the effects of natural disasters such as flood and landslide zones, coastal and rural areas and earthquake regions. Our EPODs are designed to provide a critical lifeline to distressed communities and can be fully customised to include the latest emergency equipment such as critical infrastructure and tools, generators, satellite devices, water filtration systems, medical kits, food stocks and other necessary supplies.
Our Story
EPODS were founded on the belief that every community deserves to be prepared for emergencies, no matter how remote or vulnerable. In the wake of natural disasters and other unexpected events, it’s essential to have a reliable source of shelter, food, and supplies. That’s why EPODS has created a network of Emergency Resilience Containers, which are designed to provide a lifeline to those in need.
​
We believe that our innovative solution to emergency preparedness and resilience will save lives and continue to positively impact communities and future emergency responses. We have made it our mission to empower vulnerable communities with the necessary tools and resources required to protect themselves during future natural disaster events. We are committed to providing our clients with the best possible service and products, and our team of experts will work with you closely throughout the process to ensure that your EPOD meets your exact requirements.
​
We are proud to share that our EPODs were recently put to the test, having been utilised in the emergency response efforts to Cyclone Gabrielle. In January 2023, prior to the arrival of Cyclone Gabrielle, we successfully delivered 25 EPODs to our client Te Whare Maire o Tapuwae Whanau Ora, which were deployed across the wider Wairoa region. Having been one of the worst affected regions in New Zealand, our EPODs made a positive impact and proved to be a critical lifeline to the Wairoa community in their emergency response and resilience efforts to Cyclone Gabrielle.
​
Our partnership with Hawkes Bay based global sportswear and manufacturing company Kooga New Zealand ensures that we have the necessary expertise and resources to deliver and implement our clients’ needs. As part of the Kooga family, we have access to a wealth of experience and expertise in product manufacturing and sourcing, which enables us to offer our clients premium products at competitive prices.
