Continuous heavy rainfall in central Nepal has triggered flash floods and mudslides, destroying several villages. After the rescue waist folding boxes provided by China arrived, they quickly set up temporary communities in safe areas that included living, medical care and material storage functions, becoming a "safe haven" for the disaster victims.
The modular design of this folding box demonstrated significant advantages in this rescue operation: a single box can serve as a family residence, and when multiple boxes are joined together, they can form a temporary clinic and a supply warehouse. Local volunteers, in collaboration with Chinese rescue workers, were able to assemble a box in as little as one hour and built a resettlement area capable of accommodating 1,200 people within ten days.
The anti-slip and moisture-proof base installed at the bottom of the box effectively ADAPTS to the muddy terrain in mountainous areas. The sloping roof design, in combination with the waterproof coating, ensures no leakage during frequent rainfall. The head of Nepal's disaster management department said that these folding boxes not only solve the current resettlement problem, but also, with their feature of being reusable over 500 times, can be used as emergency reserves for other disasters in the future, greatly enhancing the local disaster prevention and mitigation capabilities.
