About Us
Our Mission
At Emergency Sandbag Response (ESR), our mission is to provide innovative, efficient, and reliable sandbag solutions to protect communities and critical infrastructure from flooding and natural disasters. As a company based in Florida, we understand firsthand the devastating impact of floods and are dedicated to helping others stay prepared and resilient.
Our Story
ESR was founded by Albert Sotero, who having experienced the aftermath of severe floods as a native Floridian, was determined to find a better way. He saw how time-consuming and resource-intensive the sandbag-filling process could be, this inspired him to modernize a centuries-old practice, leading to the creation of ESR's innovative system.
Why ESR Stands Out
-
Innovative Technology
Our patented tailgate technology attaches easily to most dump trucks, allowing us to fill a 30-pound sandbag in less than five seconds. This means we can produce nearly 1,000 sandbags in an hour, a feat unmatched in the industry.
-
Efficiency and Cost-Effectiveness
By eliminating the need for manual shoveling, our system reduces the manpower required for sandbag filling. This not only speeds up the process but also decreases overtime expenses and minimizes the risk of physical exhaustion or injuries among city and county staff.
-
Mobility and Scalability
ESR's system is mobile and self-contained, requiring no additional equipment or storage. We can quickly deploy multiple trucks to different locations, providing flexible and comprehensive coverage during emergencies.
Partnering with ESR
By choosing ESR, municipalities gain access to a highly skilled team equipped with advanced technology. We are committed to helping communities prepare for severe weather events, enhancing their resilience, and protecting lives and property. Our streamlined approach and innovative solutions set us apart from traditional methods, making ESR the preferred choice for modern flood preparedness.
