Crisis Response & Winterisation

Cooking and warmth for communities facing disruption.

When access is difficult and everyday infrastructure is disrupted, practical cooking and heating equipment becomes an essential part of the response. HRS offers compact stove options for remote delivery, household cooking and winterisation programmes.

Eco Camp Cooker assembled for outdoor cooking

A compact cooking system for the last stage of the journey.

The Eco Camp Cooker is purpose-built for remote deployment. Its flat-packed form measures just 8 × 12 × 1 inches and the stove weighs 2 kg, making it a practical option to assess where space and carrying weight matter.

For response teams working beyond reliable road access, a compact stove can form part of a household cooking package, with fuel, cookware and user guidance planned around local needs.

Plan an Eco Camp Cooker deployment

Different emergencies. Practical needs to plan for.

Communities cut off by damaged access routes

When roads or bridges are disrupted, relief supplies may need to travel through several stages of transport. Compact cooking equipment can support distribution to households beyond the main delivery point.

Households displaced from their usual kitchens

Families staying away from home may need a practical way to prepare familiar meals. Cooking packages can be planned around suitable cooking areas, available fuel and everyday household routines.

Disrupted electricity and cooking-fuel supply

Where normal energy services are unreliable, response teams can assess stove options alongside a dependable supply of suitable fuel, cookware and user support.

Cold weather during prolonged disruption

As temperatures fall, households may need both cooking and space heating. Winterisation planning brings together the stove, shelter suitability, installation and ongoing fuel supply.

Plan for warmth as well as cooking.

Eco Hot Box Basic and Eco Duo offer compact heating and cooking options for winterisation programmes. The right choice depends on the shelter, cooking needs, fuel and installation arrangements.

Discuss Eco Duo for winterisation

Heating installations need an appropriate flue, ventilation, clearances and a suitable shelter. We assess the proposed setting and installation requirements with the delivery team.

Build the deployment around the people and the delivery route.

HCS is the programme-facing route to Himalayan Rocket Stove's products and delivery experience. We work with organisations to define the equipment, delivery scope and support needed for a volume deployment.
