Strengthening Community Emergency Preparedness: FIRST72 Partners with Honda Outdoors NZ

We are excited to announce our partnership with Honda Outdoors NZ, a leader in reliable and high-performance power solutions, as we continue our mission to enhance emergency preparedness and resilience across Aotearoa.

At FIRST72, we prioritise quality and reliability when selecting equipment for our emergency pods, ensuring that the communities we serve have access to the best resources when they need them most. That’s why we exclusively use Honda generators, specifically the EU22i and EU70, within our EPODs.

Honda’s reputation for durability and reliability has made them a natural partner. Known for their unwavering performance in the toughest conditions, Honda generators are designed to keep essential services running smoothly during emergencies. The EU22i and EU70 models provide consistent, fuel-efficient power—exactly what communities need when facing unforeseen challenges like natural disasters.

Beyond their top-tier products, Honda has also been invaluable in offering technical expertise, servicing support, and practical advice. Their team’s knowledge has been crucial in ensuring that our EPODs are equipped with power systems that not only work but are well-maintained and ready to perform when called upon.

An exciting feature of Honda’s product range is their Home Start Kit, a solution designed to enable users to connect their generator directly to their home for backup power. This kit promotes self-sufficiency during power outages by providing a reliable source of electricity, ensuring that homes can maintain critical functions when the grid is down. Whether it’s keeping essential appliances running or staying connected, Honda’s Home Start Kit offers peace of mind for homeowners seeking resilience.

Together with Honda Outdoors NZ, we are confident that our EPODs and the addition of products like the Home Start Kit will continue to empower communities, marae and households across New Zealand to be well-prepared for any emergency.
