The Dreadnort POD
(Point Of Difference)
Our concept came about from a case study in 2011 for a multi-use tsunami survival shelter that would double as a boat and caravan.
It should be noted that our POD, in its current form will not stand up to the forces of a tsunami due to our door design and large windows.
We plan to offer the POD’s with varying layouts and different sizes.
Off-Grid Solar Options!
