Super Typhoon Haiyan Ravages Central Philippines

The Central Philippines braces for the worst super typhoon of the season packing sustained winds of 174 mph, gusting to over 200 mph. Moving across heavily populated areas, Super Typhoon Haiyan (know as Yolanda in the Philippines) will affect millions of people including those located in areas hit by the recent 7.1 magnitude earthquake that killed 222, injured 1,000 and displaced 350,000 people.

While the recently displaced residents struggle with makeshift shelters, the super typhoon will bring along high winds, flash floods and landslides to the already desperate conditions.

It’s storms like this that prompted the development of MODS and that MODS housing is designed to best withstand. Set in place before the storm hits, MODS could save thousands of lives and provide comfortable shelter after the storm passes and the cleanup efforts begin.

MODS housing units have many distinct advantages over flimsy trailer style housing. In extreme climate conditions, mods can be stacked to provide large open “garage” style work spaces protected from the elements. MODS are structurally far superior to trailer housing sometimes used by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Using ultra strong seas containers as their core, the outer shell alone is capable of withstanding tons of water pressure from monstrous waves in the open ocean, pressures that would instantly shatter a trailer style housing unit.

At the end of the day, MODS units definitely win out in structural integrity, safety and comfort. Contact Us Today for a free price quote or to answer any questions you may have.
