Survival Kit

The 5 Most Popular Emergency Survival Kits

1. Home Survival Kits

The most popular types of survival kits are those that are designed for your home and keep your family safe during an emergency. Although most people consider their home a safe place, you never know when a natural or unnatural disaster will strike. Home survival kits usually come in weatherproof, durable containers that can be stored almost anywhere. This container can also double as a portable and easy to carry toilet, and can come with an optional snap-on toilet seat. Inside of the container you will find a wide variety of supplies for most emergency situations including food bars, water boxes, thermal blankets, lights, etc.

2. Car Kits

No matter if you only use your car for short commutes to the office, or if you spend most of your life behind the wheel, keeping an emergency kit in the trunk of your car is a good idea. There are plenty of situations where an automobile survival kit would come in handy such as a severe snowstorm, accident, loss of gasoline, and many more. Automobile kits usually come in an easy-to-store backpack with food and water rations, first aid kit, AM/FM radio with LED flashlight, and a cell phone charger.

3. School Safety

School emergency survival kits are important to keep students safe in case of an emergency. During a lockdown students could spend long periods of time without access to food, water, or bathrooms. Depending on the size of the class, a home survival kit could suffice. However, kits designed for classrooms can usually support up to 24 students for up to 12 hours. For more serious situations, or larger class sizes, you could get premium classroom survival kits that could support up to 23 students for up to 3 days.

4. Office Emergencies

Since most Americans spend 160 hours or more each month at their place of work, office 72-hour emergency kits have become quite popular. If you want to keep you and your coworkers safe in the event of a disaster or emergency then you could invest in a simple office emergency kit. Since offices come in all shapes in sizes, we offer a wide variety of kits that sustain up to 100 people.

5. Travel and Camping

Hiking in the woods alone or in a small group can become very dangerous very quickly in the event you find yourself lost or injured. Fortunately, one-person traveling survival kits with first aid supplies, blankets, food, and water can keep you safe until help arrives. These small, one-person survival kits come in fanny packs and contain supplies to sustain a single individual for up to 3 days.

Emergency Blanket: An Essential Item For Survival Kits

If you are going on a camping trip, make sure that your survival kit has an emergency blanket included. In case of unexpected downpours and windstorms, using them is sure to keep you toasty warm throughout the night.

Shopping Tips for Emergency Blankets
With so many bogus products crowding the market today, authentic emergency blankets, which may also be referred to as space blankets, are harder to find. Use the tips below to make sure that your purchase is 100% capable of keeping you safe and warm in whatever weather condition you find yourself in.

The Right Materials
Basic emergency blankets are made of aluminized non-stretch polyester. Anything else will not be able to effectively or sufficiently reflect your body heat and provide you with the extra warmth you need.

Heavy-duty emergency blankets, on the other hand, are made of a more durable kind of polyethylene. If you’re expecting to meet extreme weather conditions on your camping trip, you’ll be glad to know that this kind of emergency blanket is capable of reflecting 90% of your body heat.

Lastly, authentic emergency blankets are weatherproof. Be sure to test it out for yourself. Emergency blankets must not only be capable of keeping water out but it must also protect your body from strong gusts of wind.

Compact and Lightweight
Because emergency blankets are designed for outdoor use, its manufacturers have ensured that lightweight materials are used for making them to facilitate traveling. If the emergency blanket you are interested in buying is bulky and heavy then it’s probably a fake and won’t give you any semblance of safety or warmth when you finally make use of it on your camping trip.

Flexible
Be sure to test the flexibility of the emergency blanket. You want something that will effectively mold to your shape even in sub-zero conditions.

Size
If you are of exceptional height or girth, be sure to check the dimensions of the emergency blanket. Don’t settle for anything incapable of keeping you fully covered as this could compromise your health and safety.

Appearance
Look for something that’s easy distinguishable even in low light conditions. In cases where you’ll have to pack quickly and move to another camping site, you won’t have a hard time looking for your emergency blanket.

It’s Not for Sharing
Last but not the least, not all emergency blankets are designed for sharing and at the most, they are only capable of keeping two persons under wraps. Anything more would render the emergency blanket less effective than it should be.
