Rescue & Emergency Blankets
Rescue & Emergency Blankets are lightweight protective layers used to cover a casualty at the incident scene to help maintain body temperature and provide basic environmental protection. They differ from stretchers and boards by their protective function rather than transport. Essential in field response bags and standard emergency kits.

About this category
Emergency blankets address a simple but critical challenge at an incident site: helping to maintain body heat in environments that may be cold or exposed. The design: a thin layer of heat-reflective material, folded in a compact pack, that unfolds to a wide area covering the casualty. Common materials: metallized polyester (Mylar) film in reflective silver, and wool or polyester fabrics on some reinforced designs. Types by use: general emergency blankets (compact-size for field bags), multi-layer thermal blankets for cold sites, fire-resistant blankets for welding and metalwork environments, and wrap-around blankets with securement straps. Uses: first-response bags, vehicle emergency kits, land and marine rescue teams, construction sites in cold regions, civil-defense teams, and field training facilities. Operating notes: inspecting package integrity, dry storage, and replacement after use. A substantive difference from stretchers: blankets are on-site protection tools, not transport tools. Material grade, dimensions, and specifications are chosen from the product documentation by use environment and response requirements before ordering.
