Description

Foil Blanket (disposable)

• A disposable, ultra-insulating emergency blanket.
• Both sides have a heat-reflective metallic surface that will retain over 90% of body heat.
• As well as retaining most radiated body heat, it will also protect against wind and rain.
• Ideal for treating or preventing hypothermia.

Foil Space Blankets, also known as survival blankets or first aid blankets, are commonly used by first aiders in the treatment of shock and hypothermia. The disposable heat-reflecting blankets are individually sealed in pocket sized bags. They are effective even in wet conditions and may be used in conjunction with traditional fabric blankets.

Intense physical exertion can often cause people to suffer rapid heat loss from their body that could have dire consequences if not dealt with immediately. The Foil Space Blankets help individuals to retain that heat in the body so that he or she can recover as quickly as possible.

These blankets are often found to be part of first aid kits which are kept in offices and sporting establishments so that an injured person can be kept warm immediately.
