What is..?
Post disaster accommodation units are prefabricated and modular housing solutions designed to provide safe, durable and dignified living spaces for individuals and families affected by natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes and wildfires. These units are manufactured in factory controlled environments and delivered to site as ready to install modules, enabling rapid setup and immediate occupancy.
Unlike short term shelters, post disaster accommodation units are engineered for extended use. They integrate insulated wall systems, secure doors and windows, ventilation and basic electrical and plumbing infrastructure, ensuring compliance with international safety, hygiene and humanitarian standards during recovery and reconstruction phases.

Advantages
Post disaster accommodation units enable rapid response when time is critical. Offsite manufacturing allows large volumes to be produced and deployed quickly, significantly reducing the time needed to restore safe living conditions.
Durability and protection are key benefits. These units are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and continuous use, offering greater safety and resilience compared with temporary shelters.
Improved living comfort supports physical and psychological recovery. Thermal insulation, privacy and controlled indoor environments help restore a sense of normalcy for affected populations.
Modular design provides flexibility. Units can be relocated, reused or upgraded into transitional or permanent housing solutions, improving lifecycle efficiency and optimizing humanitarian investment.

Usage Areas
Post disaster accommodation units are widely used in the aftermath of major natural disasters to house displaced populations while permanent reconstruction is underway.
They support government agencies, international organizations and NGOs in establishing organized temporary settlements that can evolve into longer term residential communities.
These units are also suitable for remote or high risk areas where conventional construction is slow or impractical, enabling faster recovery and stabilization.
