FOR URGENT GENERAL RELEASE
HaitiHouse.org Helps Promote Security In Haiti By Creating The FlatPackQuad™ Home - Establishing New Villages With Private Courtyards
[February 8, 2010 - Thomasville, GA USA] Announcing the FlatPackQuad™, instant village building solution from HaitiHouse.org.
The HaitiHouse™ division of our company, Harbor Homes LLC, (http://www.haitihouse.org) is the creator of the HaitiHouse™ FlatPackHome™, the FlatPackQuad™, the cargo2™ container series of bunkhouses, showers, kitchens, laundry, and office units, FEMA approved travel trailers, park models, mobile homes and support facilities for use as temporary AND permanent shelters.
HaitiHouse™ has developed the next generation of disaster recovery housing, the FlatPackQuad(tm). These homes are being produced to address the pressing needs for safety, security, home establishment and preparation for hurricane season in Haiti.
We saw one of our paramount tasks to be to design a way to create entire new villages, quickly and easily, in cooperation with families and neighbors, so they can reclaim their lives and freedom, living in a more secure environment.
REBUILDING ENTIRE VILLAGES IN A DAY IS POSSIBLE
We were already manufacturing a home that folds out in 15 minutes, packs down to less than 10 inches and fits 16 to a single cargo container. The HaitiHouse™ FlatPackHome™ is 7'6"x18'9" long. There is also the 39 foot long version.
For the second generation we wanted something that could help address security needs, and the FlatPackQuad™ line was born. It creates private interior courtyard spaces for residents. Our unique FlatPackHome™ and FlatPackQuad™ are engineer certified to withstand 130 mile an hour winds and has a Seismic D rating. People are safer in such structures. The entire integrated raised floor frame sits on the ground with clearance for water to pass through.
Plus, the HaitiHouse™ products are rated for 30-year use, are fireproof, waterproof and impervious to insects and rot. You can a time lapse video of a FlatPackHome™ being assembled with a wrench and a ladder by a few men in 15 minutes from placement on the ground at www.youtube.com/haitihouseorg1. And because all walls and roof elements of our home are pre-joined by industrial steel hinges, welded and integrated to the galvanized steel studs that encase the entire structure, our HaitiHouse™ does not rely on small pieces of hardware, properly installed to hold pieces together after arrival.
Our products are long-term solutions for Haiti resettlement. In fact, we are already shipping container support units into the country for distribution.
Our FlatPackQuad™ concept allows residents to establish their home with neighbors in a few minutes, then they will have space to store valuable commodities in an inner courtyard, work, and go about daily tasks - safely. Now, a few families can band together, create their interior atrium space with our products, still have their own individual house for privacy, yet share a common area to conduct daily tasks.
Washing, cooking, storage, building a small craft/repair or other business is possible in a safe area. Children can play within sight without outsiders having access to them while parents are busy. The laundry can be hung and kept safe. Supplies can be safely stored. And in common, the families can grow raised bed vegetable gardens in the protected area, helping to establish a better diet.
Our "whole house" ready-to-deliver approach is more sound to quickly house one to two million people. Various organizations we are supplying agree. Once assembled it provides complete protection to the inhabitants with sealed screened windows and doors.
We currently supply the World Health Organization, several combined Church groups, and other entities. We are a long-time and current FEMA vendor ready to create several hundred to thousands of homes every week, and have even begun direct shipment to avoid the damaged port in the Haitian capital. We are confident that our established designs and approach will become the standard in this crisis, as we are one of the leading disaster recovery housing specialists in the world.
