Water utilities are foundational to public health, safety, and economic stability.

Keeping Field Crews Safe When Conditions Are Tough
Field teams in the water sector often work in unpredictable environments – from flood zones to remote pump stations – especially during emergencies. Total Prepare offers a wide selection of ready-to-deploy emergency kits built with mobile teams and utility crews in mind, helping to ensure safety, sustenance, and resilience during critical operations. Our kits include:
- Meals, Ready-to-Eat (MREs): These self-contained, high-calorie food packets are specifically designed to provide quick, nutritious, hot meals in the field, without the need for cooking facilities or extensive preparation.
- Compact Food Rations: Long-lasting and able to withstand extreme conditions, these bars provide three days’ worth of calories per pack – ideal for grab-and-go kits or extended deployments.
- Personal First Aid Kits: Essential supplies to treat minor injuries or provide critical aid until professional help arrives.
- Temporary Shelter and Warming Solutions: From emergency bivies, mylar blankets, hand warmers and more, we can protect responders from the cold, wind and rain when working long shifts in extreme environments.
- Vehicle Emergency Kits: For teams on the road, our vehicle kits provide peace of mind with supplies for breakdowns or unexpected stops in remote areas.
