How the Caterpillar Team Provides Emergency Disaster Relief
At Caterpillar, our strength is our team. That’s especially evident when we pull together to help in an emergency. When disasters strike, Caterpillar employees, dealer and customers are ready to help with equipment and expertise that can make a difference.
Deploying the Best
Machine operators from Caterpillar and Cat® dealers are deployed to impacted areas to help because we know the Cat equipment plays a critical role in rescue and clean-up efforts.
Working Together
Cat dealers, our factories and distribution centers work together to get generators, machines and work tools to the right places.
