Boxabl, a company specializing in fast, sustainable, and modular housing solutions, is taking matters into its own hands to provide 200 Boxabls homes for disaster relief in Maui. The company is collaborating with local authorities and the Red Cross, but has faced delays in securing FEMA support.
A Sustainable Solution for Maui Paolo Tiramani, co-founder of Boxabl, took to Twitter to announce the company’s intentions. “We’re working on @CountyofMaui with @fema contractors and @RedCross to hopefully put together a plan to provide @BOXABL’s fast sustainable permanent and locally sensitive solutions that can be rapidly deployed anywhere onsite then rapidly re-deployed into beautiful long-term communities,” he tweeted. Tiramani emphasized the need for permanent solutions over temporary ones to avoid creating “future-slums.”
