In
these times in which we are witnessing catastrophic climate
and financial events around the world many people have a feeling
of uncertainty and doubt and with media reinforcement of 2012
major upheavals to come, being prepared is important. Smart-people
will prepare in advance.
The provision of Trans-Portable Life Support Systems (survival
back up) packaged in a container has appeal to many considering
recent floods, fires and quakes. Recovery and life support is
vital when an emergency occurs.
WHY
WORRY? - There have been many disasters in recent times. Beginning
with the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 that saw the destruction
of the Twin Towers to the nightmarish aftermath of Hurricane Katrina;
from massive flooding and wildfires in the United States to devastating
earthquakes in Haiti and Chile; FLoods in Thailand and now the unprecedented
destruction in Japan and Thailand that has seen coast-side cities wiped
off the face of the map and nuclear power plants melting down, earth
quakes in New Zealand, the last ten years has seen an ominous spike
in events that only makes disaster preparation that much more of a necessity
for all of us. The
fact is that when a calamity happens its too late to prepare as recent
disasters can attest. Food runs out, accomodation is scare in the area
and your survival can be at risk. Enter S.O.S. Emergency Containers!

Cataclysms, disasters, catastrophes, crises, calamities, and emergencies.
They happen more often than we’d like. They can range anywhere from
a major earthquake, to a blizzard, to an uncontrolled wildfire, to a
localized house fire. The best way to survive any calamity is to be
prepared. But how does one go about preparing for – who knows what?
It all seems so ambiguous and far removed from where we live our daily
lives. We get up, take the kids to school, go to work, come home, eat,
watch a little TV, go to bed and do it again the next day (with a few
vacations thrown in for good measure). In our own comfortable routines,
we are lulled into a sense of cocooned safety which leads to complacency.
But then something happens – a flood that wipes you out overnight. Perhaps
a hurricane (like the now infamous Katrina), and you realize more fully
how quickly an emergency can arise.
S.O.S
EMERGENCY CONTAINER is a PURPOSE-SUPPLIED
FULLY LOADED shipping container capable of keeping you alive for 1 to
12 months in the event of a disaster or the need to quickly relocate.
For sports and leisure pursuits they can be delivered, used and picked
up afterwards.

S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINER(S)
can be easily transported to a location of choice FULLY LOADED
when needed or in preparation for an unforseen circumstance
in the future. Our high-tech inclusions will enable a family
to survive for short and medium terms and our Military Advice
partners and Suppliers (some of which supply the Australian
Military) work together to ensure that all the bits you will
need to assist you to provide shelter, food, water, warmth,
health and general sustinance are included.
The ability to deliver the trans-portable life support systems
to almost any location in Australia and overseas, quickly
and efficiently by road, rail, water and air offers peace of
mind to those willing to insure against or respond to Mother
Nature's events. Smart Outdoor Survival for a World of Change
is our catch cry - you never know what is around the corner
of life. Being prepared is the answer.
If
you think about it, food and water are vital to our survival.
A human being can only live for a few weeks without food and
only a few days without water. So why aren't we more concerned
with protecting our most basic necessities? In light of the
tragic events in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina in the
USA, hurricane in Queensland, Tsunami in Japan, quakes in Chile
and China and New Zealand, the floods in Queensland, NSW and
Victoria, the power outage in New York City that brought the
city to a standstill, and the constant threat of fires, earthquakes,
tornadoes and other natural disasters across the country, it
is important to make sure we always have the basic necessities
of life with enough home food storage for your family to survive
for at least two weeks.
SMART
OUTDOOR SURVIVAL (SOS) FOR A WORLD OF CHANGE!
EMERGENCY
SOLUTIONS
We have designed an Emergency solution (survival container)
to give people at least six months (and up to 12 months) of
accomodation, cooking, survival, great food and clean water
until more permanent solutions can be obtained. Many of the
meals are freeze-dried, which means they will last up to 10
years and retain their nutritional value. Why not make sure
you and your loved ones are prepared with enough food and water
to survive the ever-increasing number of disasters in the world?
It all makes sense. Small survival packages offered on many
sites are OK for a couple of days but if a cataclysmic event
happens you will need to survive for some time.

SMART OUTDOOR SURVIVAL (S.O.S) FOR A WORLD OF CHANGE!
THE
WISE
BE-PREPARED
There are many applications indeed for S.O.S
EMERGENCY CONTAINERS but
in the end it is about peace of mind in times of crisis. The
contents we supply inside the containers can be rolled out for
external use as required (see examples below). Plenty of space
for couples or families and full amenities and air-con make
their use very tempting when custom built.
It
is the AMAZING ARRAY OF EQUIPMENT and knowledge that
makes S.O.S
EMERGENCY CONTAINERS
a truly useful product for any emergency or 'OFF THE GRID' REQUIREMENT.
Shipping containers make this possible because they are robust
and easily transportable. You can arrange them like mechano
sets to suit your requirements.
But we go the EXTRA-mile. With our background in design and
high tech automation we are able to prep a container to provide
short or medium term survival when circumstances require. And
all you have to do is order to your specification and we deliver
FULLY-LOADED.
Because the container is lockable, water proof and vermin proof
you have peace of mind, and with long term food supplies on
board you insure against lack of provisions when cirumstances
occur or hedge against rising food prices. It's that simple!!
Fully tailored to your requirements for couples, families, friends,
sporting groups and more.
When
the world of fast food and shopping mart supplies are gone we need to
revert to the old ways of making nutritious food.
It doesn't matter if it's a situation that happens in your home,
in your community, at the workplace, at a state or national
level... if you're not prepared, the cost of that inaction can
be greater than anything you've ever imagined. An ice storm
in left thousands without power for a week or longer. Few were
prepared. Major floods overwhelmed. Thousands fled water-filled
homes, but it was a week or more before power was restored.
Because of flood contamination, there was no drinking water,
and the sewers were overflowing from the deluge. Hurricanes
devastate coastal areas and once again, all systems of infrastructure
they had relied upon for years were gone in a moment.
The
day that everything on Earth is supposed to change. What will
happen to YOU
Is
it true or false?
Either
way a level of survival preparedness for the average person will
not go astray! Governments are building underground cities and
dwellings and have been for many years.
The wealthy can hunker down below ground but what about you and
I. Being somewhat prepared just in case is the answer!!
An
inconvenient truth.
If you try to prepare for an emergency while it's upon you,
you will fail!
If you were placed in a situation where the TV newscasters were
warning you to get out of an area or batten down the hatches,
would you be prepared? Would you even know how to prepare?
If you answered "No" to both those questions, don't
worry... you're not alone. According to an article in the December
edition of USA Today, "The non-profit Council for Excellence
in Government has developed a Public Readiness Index as part
of its report, rating people's preparedness on a one-to-10 scale
based on answers to 10 questions. The questions range from whether
people know about their community's disaster plan and how to
find the emergency broadcasting channel on the radio, to whether
they've prepared a home disaster kit and established a meeting
place for family members.The average score on the index was
3.31. And this more than five years after 9/11 and a little
more than a year after the devastating hurricanes that wiped
out New Orleans and the Gulf Coast.
The thing most dangerous to a nation's citizens doesn't appear
to be their government.
It seems to be their complacency.
What's
On Your Preparedness List? Do You Even Have a List?
The recent ice and snow in the US Southeast this winter drove
home an inconvenient truth. If you try to prepare for an emergency
while it's upon you, you will fail. The words "snow"
and "ice" had barely left the meteorologist's mouth
before Walmart's parking lot was overflowing. Bread? Nothing
left. Milk? Forget it. Canned goods? Nope. Water? Better figure
out a way to melt ice and snow. I went home to cupboards that,
while not bare, were not exactly stocked with items to get me
through an ice storm. I was going to have to get pretty creative.
And then it happened. My central unit died. I didn't even have
an alternative heat source. There was no sense in getting out
to find a spot heater either. Those were gone before the bread
and milk. I wasn't too smart. I had let my "I'll take
care of that tomorrow" attitude get in the way of smart
thinking and preparation, and now I faced something that could,
if events ran along the same vein as the last ice storm we faced,
put me in a perilous situation. I didn't even have a list that
I was keeping of items I needed. It was all in my head, stuffed
in the back behind what I considered more important things and
pursuits.
THE
WISE BE-PREPARED
WE
HAVE A VERY LONG LIST OF INCLUSIONS ALREADY
BUT . . .
IF YOU HAVE A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT YOU THINK SHOULD BE INCLUDED
IN THE S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINER(S) THEN EMAIL US AND WE WILL
INVESTIGATE AND INCLUDE WHERE APPROPRIATE!
There
are enough things to worry about. That's why you have insurance
for just about everything in life—homeowners, car, life, health,
and dental just to name a few. It makes sense to protect your
most valuable possessions as well limit your financial risk.
So why not some food insurance?
We supply long term food supplies!
No
one knows when a disaster will strike and adequate transportation
may be limited.
For these reasons, it is important to have portable water and
food sources.
Just throw it on your back and go.
You
need water within 3 days.
S.O.S. Emergency drinking water satchels provide enough for freeze
dried single serve food portions and for human daily water intake.
Long term water sourced form Australian Springs with scientifically
balanced mineral content and 7.9ph.
Water
filters are also important when the available supply is polluted.
Our
GRAB-BAG food & water kits cover you for 3 DAYS and our
S.O.S. EMERGENCY CONTAINERS for up to 12 months.We
also provide long term water satchels with the food for drinking
or food preparation. Our S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINERS are
supplied with long term food rations and water supplies for
up to 12 months if required. However we also sell short term
food supplies and water supplies (packets) for say 72+ hour
requirements all packaged into a neat back pack ready for grab
and go. Our long term food supplies include freeze dried provisions
three meals a day per person. Just add water and enjoy
a nourishing meal. With a long shelf life your investment is
well covered. And the food choice is well varied to suit all.
We supply products from foodinsurance.com as well as other companies.
Dine on teriyaki, beef stroganoff, and
a variety of other delicious entrées. What’s more, this
food can retain its nutritional value and freshness for up to
ten years. Lightweight, weather-resistant backpack.
click on pic to see more about the food. We
can also include NON HYBRID Australian vegetable seeds for gowing
your own vegies and herbs. For longer term requirements this
can be a real benefit. So with food for initial periods of survival
coupled with GROW-YOUR-OWN food your nutrition levels can be
sustained for longer periods. We also include drums of grains
and legumes and a grain wheel for making your own bread and
food reserves. So we have you well covered. Tin storage of meats,
poultry and other basics are also available as optional extras.
Order as required.
FLAMELESS
HEATER PACKS
How it Works . . .
The
pack consists of an outer foil cooking pouch and 2 inner plastic
heat pads containing sachets of reactants. Add water to a freeze
dried meal pouch to reconstitute it and then put it into the foil
cooking pouch. Add water to the inner heat pads to initiate the
reaction.
The sachets in the heat pads contain mixed powdered magnesium,
powdered iron and salt. When water is added to the heat bags the
salt forms an electrolyte solution, the iron acts as an anode,
the magnesium acts as a cathode, and the magnesium oxidises at
an increased rate giving off strong heat.
The product will not generate flame or sufficient heat to cause
ignition.

S.O.S
EMERGENCY CUISINE is easy to prepare and great tasting
because of the features of our Freeze Dri process. This combines
quick-to-hydrate, freeze-dried vegetables and meats with sauce
mixes that have been processed to retain their natural flavours.
The result is delicious meals that can be prepared in the pack
in 10 minutes with the addition of boiling water. In the freeze
drying process, crystals of frozen ice in the food are sublimed
(evaporated) to water vapour in a vacuum chamber. The result
is a completely dry product that does not shrink during the
drying process. When prepared for eating, the water quickly
gets into the pores left by the ice crystals to give a juicy,
tender food product. After packing, the food is heat-sealed
in foil pouches from which all the air has been removed and
replaced with nitrogen gas. This keeps the food safe and flavoursome
for at least three years without the need for preservatives.
Cuisine meals are formulated to meet the high energy needs of
outdoor activity. There is a careful balance of carbohydrates
and sugars for instant energy, protein to replenish exhausted
muscles and oils and fat to provide an energy store (oils and
fats are kept within the recommended maximum of 30% of total
energy). Freeze drying retains the natural vitamins in the food
because of the low temperatures used in processing. Along with
naturally occuring minerals and the addition of salt, the meals
provide vitamins and minerals necessary to stay healthy.
Our

Queensland
floods recenty devestated many people and an entire State of
Australia. Sure it has happened before ( a long time ago) but
climatic changes and being touted on every news channel around
the world. There may not be much in it - then again like insurance
against a car accident, can you afford not to BE PREPARED?
The S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINERSincludes
emergency accomodation and survival stuff all packed into a
container. You choose how much stuff and how big the container
and we deliver it to your location. Fully self sufficient the
kit will assist with short to medium term survival when quick
response to a circumstance is needed. There's plenty of survival
stuff so having it all on standby offers peace of mind in extreme
circumstances. In the USA many people are now preparing for
short term and medium term survival. There are UTube videos
by the hundreds showing innovative ways to use shipping containers
for emergency or longer term accomodation and survival. It's
happening now and US trends typically end up here as well. Join
two together and make a home. Join three and make an even bigger
home etc. With pull down sides, windows , furniture and more
you might even think its a home away from home at any time.
Or for the growing list of mortgage-impossible families, an
S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINERS
on a block somewhere out there may be the difference between
life and well a very uncomfortable existence. So we are about
BEING PREPARED in ADVANCE with high tech designed solutions
that provide basics for human life which you can up and move
at any time or use as a fire protection bunker or underground
shelter. Not visible from the air when covered to specifications,
these SMART SURVIVAL kits when buried in the ground or side
of a hill offer seclusion from unwanted communications.

HOW
ONE GROUP WORKED SHIPPING CONTAINERS FOR THEIR REQUIREMENTS!
Our
rainforest research facility cost us about $16,000 AUS all up
including two containers, trucking the containers some 500km,
screening in the cargo doors, steel, cement, sand and gravel,
nuts, bolts,three carports, C-section, screens, timber, decking
oil and painting - the lot. We have 30sqm of totally dry sleepng
area, 15sqm of mostly dry cooking area and 45sqm of covered sitting
out area - a total of 90sqm undercover.
This year we had exceptionally high rainfall. The containers stayed
dry and free of insects or vermin despite an astounding 8m of
intense tropical rain! Our
research centre completed. The idea is to build something simple
and liveable. We are very satisfied with the shipping containers.
The
site, in Far North Queensland, is situated in dense tropical rainforest.
The area has slippery red lateritic clays and gets about 6m of
rain per year. The area has many snakes and troublesome white
tail rats. It was decided to raise the containers onto 1.5m concrete
stumps to keep them out of the wet, to keep them out of the splash
and to keep rats and snakes out. We did not try to level the ground
as it would break the protective root cover and result in erosion.
The
containers were lifted onto the posts by a small low profile rubber
tracked crane in about 30min. The concrete posts proved to be
very solid and stable.We could also have used a backhoe or jacks.
It would also be possible to weld RHS steel sections onto the
four corners and slide a smaller RHS section inside each. With
predrilled holes you could slowly jack things up with a very simple
jack from a 4 wheel drive vehicle on corner and one hole at a
time. This method would, however result in more vibration as,
in Australia, we found that in order to get the inner RHS to slide
, you had to leave quite a gap. You might be able to lessen the
vibration with a few hammered in wedges.
PVC
plastic pipe with rebar was placed into 600mm diameter X 600mm
deep holes. We used a dumpy level and string to get things level.
It is very important to get things level and to have the posts
exactly where you need them - take as much time as needed for
this. The 8 holes and pipes were filled with concrete mixed on
the spot one hole at a time. This took two days.
The PVC pipe is expensive - if you are not in a rush and are on
level ground so that your posts are the same length more or less
you can make a mould for the concrete posts from a single length
of PVC cut lengthwise in half, riveted down one side with a piano
hinge and held on the other side with two luggage clamps. By coating
the inside with some sump oil, the mould comes off easily , the
downside is that you can only do one post per day. We are now
using this successfully for fence posts - 10 so far and the mould
shows no signs of wear.
SURVIVAL
A MUST . . .
ONLY LIMIT IMAGINATION
Seen here two shipping containers side by side
on purpose built platform with upstairs canopy providing shelter
in rain forest location and water tank collection. Windows were
cut in.
We
used a small angle grinder run off a small petrol generator
to cut holes in the sides of the containers for large windows.
Across the front of the two containers we erected 4 smaller
diameter concrete posts and put an galvanised expanded metal
mesh walkway. The walkway served four purposes. It kept us from
tracking mud into the dry living area. It helped keep snakes
and rats out. It connected the two containers which were separated
by 3m. Finally, in the high rainfall, it permitted the rain
to fall straight through so no run off or splash into the dry
container interior. In areas or normal rainfall the walkway
could be made of less expensive material. To
the walkway we added a set of prefab concrete steps. this makes
it very easy to check for the ubiquitous rainforest termites.
The containers were also joined together with galvanised C-section.
On
the inside wall of each container we cut out a "conventional"
door. Basically we welded a rectangular frame out of RHS and
attached it where we wanted a door. Next we used an angle grinder
to cut out the part of the wall inside the frame. To this cut
out we attached a second smaller RHS frame and welded the cut
out to it. Between the two frames we attached a couple of stainless
steel hinges and a clasp for a padlock.
This will become out main (mostly dry) entrance. The large cargo
doors of the containers will have a simple wooden frame erected
across them to which we will attach fly screen. In the rainforest
a dry area and maximum ventilation are the key to comfort.
The
whole top area is used for sitting out, drying clothes, projects.
We bought three small and very cheap portable carports to cover
the roof area. First, the rainforest leaves are very hard on
paint so the plastic roof area deflects this. Second, we have
attached 2 X 6m lengths of 90mm PVC plastic storm water pipe
to collect drinking water. Third, the plastic roofing reduces
the noise of the intense tropical downpours. Fourth, the roofing
makes the lower floor, cooking, area nearly waterproof. The
smallest and cheapest angle grinder worked best for cutting
doors / windows in the conainer.We used RHS to make secure,
lockable entrance doors from the decking area. We prefabricated
the external and internal RHS frames - take care to line up
the containers ribs to get flat areas and note the rib spacing
differs from container to container , marked it up then cut
the doorway. We then laid the cut-outs on the internal frame,
makked them and cut to fit - this was harder than expected because
the rib spacing pattern affects both where you place a door
and the ultimate door size!
DISASTER
CLEAN UP . . .
When
extreme disasters occur you can rest assured that your SMART-SURVIVE
kit can be delivered from storage and will enable you to recover
some human dignity along with survival implements to keep you
going for a short or medium term. We can road haul or even fly
them in by helicopter.
Testimonial
. . .
It's
not every day you get to eat dinner in a big steel box on the
edge of the harbour. There are seven of us. Three on the couch,
another on the floor with his plate on his knees, two more guests
on chairs and one child in the bedroom out the back. It's rather
intimate but high on novelty value. There's wine and lemonade
all round as we celebrate my first night in an 11.8m x 2.35m
x 2.6m shipping container.
It had arrived 10 hours earlier on the back of a truck. "Where
d'ya want it?" the driver asked as he jumped down from
his cab.We chose a quiet corner of Rozelle Bay next to the Liquidity
restaurant and only metres from the luxury motor yachts moored
in the marina. The driver pushed the buttons on a remote control
unit and hydraulic arms at each end of the truck raised the
four-tonne steel box, swung it outwards and lowered it gently
onto the bitumen.
A 1000-litre waste-water tank was attached to the rear of the
structure. Electricity cables were snapped into place and the
steel shutters covering the windows raised. Someone handed me
a front-door key and wished me luck. Thirty minutes after its
arrival, the shipping container home was ready
Transport: Pre-fabricated modules can also be easily transported
by ship, truck or rail, because they already conform to standard
shipping sizes.
Availability:
Used shipping containers are available across the globe. In
cases where a company or country receives more containers than
it can use to ship in the return directions these containers
have no real use, since it is not cost effective to return empty
containers to their origin.
Cost:
Many used containers are available at a cost that is low compared
to a finished structure built by other labor-intensive means
such as bricks and mortar — which also require larger more expensive
foundations.
Advantages:
Strength and durability. Shipping containers are in many ways
an ideal building material. They are designed to carry heavy
loads and support heavy loads when they are stacked in high
columns. They are also designed to resist harsh environments
- they are transported globally on ocean going vessels or can
be covered in road salt when transported on roads.
Modular.
All shipping containers are made to the same standard measurements
and as such they provide modular elements that can be combined
into larger structures. This simplifies design, planning and
transport. As they are already designed to interlock for ease
of mobility during transportation, structural construction is
completed by simply emplacing them. Due to the containers' modular
design additional construction is as easy as stacking more containers.
They can be stacked up to 12 high when empty.
CAN
THEY BE USED FOR HOUSING? YES!!
With
the housing market going down and the rate of foreclosure going
up, something needs to be done. The answer to all these problems
is shipping containers! They are working and designing these
containers to be affordable, high quality homes that last a
lifetime… More information and pictures after the jump…
We realized that normal houses and traditional materials can’t
stand up to global warming and the new storms that will come
with it,” “We wanted to make something that could stand the
test of time.”Also wanted to be environmentally-friendly.“This
is definitely a case of one man’s trash being another man’s
treasure.
There are thousands of shipping containers no longer being used
but still in excellent shape lying around ports and railroads
yards all over the country that could be turned into quality
housing. Shipping containers can withstand a lot of force. The
average shipping container is rated to carry 67,000 pounds,
and can withstand eight other fully-loaded shipping containers
resting on top of it. That’s about 376 tons per square inch.“We
certainly don’t have to worry about snow load issues.The floor
of many shipping container is made out of exotic hardwoods that
when sanded and polishe produced a rich, beautiful color that
could typically cost thousands of dollars and weigh on your
conscious, since the wood is often from tropical rain forests.The
thought of living in a big rectangular box may not seem all
that appealing, but a shipping container home typically isn’t
just one long room.
Designs call for the walls to be cut out and then several containers
are welded together for larger rooms. As long as the welds are
good, the containers remain tightly sealed,nearly doubling the
energy efficiency when compared with a traditional wood frame
house. Since the containers come largely pre-assembled, construction
time is reduced as well. A typical wood frame home takes more
than six months to build. A welded shipping container home
takes about two months to complete.
Shipping container architecture is a form of architecture using
steel intermodal containers (shipping containers) as structural
element, because of their inherent strength, wide availability
and relatively low cost.
FIRE
DOOR FOR CONTAINER BUNKER . . .
At
the time of writing there are NO Australian standards for Fire
Bunkers or Fire Shelters and we make it very clear that no Fire
Bunker we know of has been tested in real world conditions and
certainly NO fire shelters or bunkers are compliant at present.
Fire Proof Shelters use the highest quality components available,
however there are no guarantees that any man made structure can
withstand the incredible extremes that we experienced on Black
Saturday!**Our advice to anyone in a high risk area is to leave
early to guarantee your safety; Fire Bunkers are a last resort
in case you get trapped and cannot escape.** It
is suggested by many experts that with the advent of global warming
and prolonged droughts we can expect more wild fires that will
match the ferocity of Black Saturday. This is the reason people
are considering the use of fire shelters as a sensible response
to the threat of bush fire. Experts studying the effects of Black
Saturday however estimate that in some areas this radiant heat
effect would have remained fatal for up to two hours. Bearing
this in mind anyone considering purchasing a shelter should be
certain that their shelter can withstand prolonged exposure to
intense heat and also provide an adequate supply of clean air.
Some shelters come with air tanks while others use an air filtering
system but any using oxygen tanks should probably be avoided as
oxygen is highly explosive when exposed to flame.
UNDERGROUND
SHELTER . . .
Yes
you can bury a shipping container for a number or project outcomes.
Wine cellars, bunkers, storage, survival and more. Put yours underground
and with above ground landscaping no one will know you are even
there. Best of all our S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINER kits are ideal
to keep you going while you arrange the excavations and more.
FIRE BUNKERS . . .
The
threat of bushfire haunts many people throughout the world.
How often on the evening news do we see footage of homes being
lost despite the best efforts of firefighters in places as far
afield as Los Angeles to Athens, not ignoring of course our
own dry continent. My home state of Victoria was devastated
last summer when a wild fire of unprecedented ferocity descended
on it’s rural and mountain communities on a day remembered as
Black Saturday. Many lives were lost and hundreds of properties
destroyed as a result.
In
the aftermath of this disaster many questions have been asked
concerning what could have been done to safeguard us against
the threat posed by bushfire. One suggestion that continues
to surface again and again is the use of purpose built fire
shelters.
SMART-SURVIVE
Fire Shelters are Designed and Engineered to Provide Emergency
Refuge in the Event of a Bush Fire!!
The Latest Fire Shelter Design SMART-SURVIVE kit can use the
latest state-of-the-art Fully Fire Rated (4 Hour) Fire Door
that is installed in High Rise buildings all over the world!
**Warning! Fire Bunkers are a Last Resort solution only; leaving
your property early is the only way to guarantee your safety.
This Fire Door can be fitted with a fully fire rated fire proof
viewing panel to see what the conditions are outside as the
Bush fire front passes. All Fire Door Component are Rated to
3 hours and beyond such as hinges and handles. "Australia
will never completely escape periodic fire storms such as those
experienced on Black Saturday". However, good fire management
can have an enormous impact on their extent and intensity. Property
losses are perhaps inevitable but the loss of human lives can
easily be reduced to a tiny fraction of that recently experienced.
The keys will be systematic fuel reduction burns and the "stay
and fight" strategy to be generally adopted but only permitted
where a purpose-built fire shelter is within easy reach. There
are no realistic alternatives. In particular the potential for
a cataclysmic disaster during a mass evacuation under fire storm
conditions is too great to even contemplate". Geoff Stocker
was founding Director of CSIRO's Tropical Forest Research Centre
THE
SOLUTION . . . S.O.S EMERGENCY CONTAINERS
Shipping containers make this possible because
they are robust and easily transportable. You can arrange them
like mechano sets to suit your requirements.
But we go th EXTRA-mile. With our background in design and high
tech automation combined with SAS survival input (like the Wan
Vs Wild Bear Grylis TV show) we are able to prep a container
to provide short or medium term survival when circumstances
require. And all you have to do is order to your specification
and we deliver FULLY-LOADED. Because the container is lockable,
water proof and vermin proof you have peace of mind, and with
long term food supplies on board you insure against lack of
provisions when cirumstances occur or hedge against rising food
prices. It's that simple!!
