"The portable building you brought to the City of New Orleans a week after the storm proved to be invaluable to our ability to resume EMS operations within the East bank of New Orleans."
—Jullette M. Saussy, M.D.,
Director of EMS
City of New Orleans
"It’s a great answer to the lack of rapidly available, hard sided systems that can accomodate a number
of emergency needs. I think FEMA should have a stable of these on hand.”
— Paul K. Carlton, Jr.
M.D.,
FACS, Lt.
General USAF (Retired)
"The MetaSpace™ is both a short and long term answer to hospital bed surge capacity.”
