We work directly with your team to match unit specifications to your operational requirements.

The Refuge units offer significant lifecycle cost advantages. We’re 40% lighter (reducing transport costs by ~35%), require no foundation or heavy machinery (saving $5,000-$15,000 per unit in site prep), and deploy in under 24 hours versus 3-5 days (reducing labor costs 60-75%).
