At Guardian and TransQuip, we’re in the business of safety — from keeping vehicles visible and compliant on the road, to shielding crews working below ground. But our commitment doesn’t stop when the gear is delivered. For us, safety is also about showing up for people — wherever they are.

That’s why we’re proud to support the Rapid Relief Team (RRT) — a volunteer-led organisation delivering practical help to Kiwis in times of need. Whether it’s emergency response, supporting frontline workers, or making community events more accessible, RRT leads with action — and heart.

Hands-on Help, the Kiwi Way

Over the past year, our Guardian and TransQuip teams have had the privilege of rolling up their sleeves and pitching in alongside RRT. From flipping burgers to donating gear, it’s all about backing good people doing great work.

Here’s a few examples of where we’ve lent a hand:

Goalball Tournament at Homai College

Grilling up a storm to support for young vision-impaired athletes.

Relay for Life

Donating ground mats to support safe event setup.

Waipara & Port Hills Fires

Cooking for the firefighters working on the frontline.

International Nurses Day

Serving appreciation meals for hospital staff in Christchurch, Waikato and Thames.

Wheelchair Basketball NZ National League

Supporting access and inclusion through sport.

Heart Kids NZ Charity Event

Helping raise vital funds for kids living with heart conditions.

Wairere Falls Search and Rescue

On-site support when time and teamwork mattered most.

And there’s more — sausage sizzles, recovery efforts, and community events where a bit of practical help made a big difference. These aren’t just good deeds — they’re part of who we are.

Values That Drive Us

Whether we’re kitting out fleets or supplying trench shields, the way we work is guided by values that go beyond the day-to-day:

✅ Putting Customers First

Showing up for people — on site, on the road, and in the community.

✅ Better Than Yesterday

Giving back to help others move forward.

✅ Prosperous Partnerships

Teaming up with organisations who share our focus on care, safety and practical support.

This work isn’t about the spotlight. It’s about doing our bit — because we know small actions can have big impact.
