Technology
When an emergency strikes, people need reliable information – now. Cell phone networks may be down. There’s no electricity. New technologies aren’t always the best solution.
Radio is the most reliable way to reach people in need. Our solar-powered products also have a wind-up option ensuring 24/7 listening access. Some products offer an MP3 option for pre-recorded content and can record new messages. Others can top up mobile phones. Learn more about our product range below:
