Global warming nowadays is becoming more hostile as it is a catalyst for the disaster towards the population. The worrying part is the aftermath of the disaster, with a large number of victims suffered lack of food resources and shelter. Although the government and non-government organization (NGOs) are distributing the resources especially food rations, they have the problems such as inefficient distribution of the ration to the victims’ area, transportation and packaging design. The affected areas sometimes cannot be reached due to poor transportation, lack of manpower and poor storage or packaging of humanitarian aid. Therefore, this research proposes the humanitarian aid storage condition that consider the period of time and effect towards the physical properties. The humanitarian aid will consist of basic supplies and resources such as food, medicine and other items for daily use that can last for 3 days after the disaster. The humanitarian aid storage will have to be practical, with its period of time and effect to the ration taken into consideration such as the durability, stiffness, its possible duration of usage need to be tested through its physical properties.
