Life Systems Empty First Aid Kit - Red

There is nothing wrong with buying a ready-made first-aid kit. It is an easy and convenience option to let someone else decided what it should contain. When I was looking to buy a first-aid kit I found a large variation in the contents depending on its assumed use. There were versions for various holiday destinations, for trekking, for boats, for mountaineering, etc. I wanted one for all of these things so decided to specify the contents myself and get an empty first-aid bag. This is just the right size to put together a family-size or personal first-aid kit to cover all occasions. I decided on the contents by getting ideas from ready-made first-aid kits and then added some personal preferences and from experience. I keep the contents up to date and under constant review.

Rather than buy a pre-filled first aid kit, I read an article from a professional expedition medic and bought all the bits myself. Then I needed a pack to put it all in. This item was the perfect size. If you're interested, here's the list for my personal first aid kit:Zinc Oxide tape50ml TCP liquidCohesive support bandageGlucose tabletsAntiseptic wipes x 10Water purification tabletsSkin closures x 20Gauze swabs (7.5cm x 7.5cm) x 10Digital thermometerTweezersMini torch and spare batteriesLighterLots of assorted plastersSterile wash (eye wash) (3 x 20ml capsules)Burnshield burn dressings (10cm x 10cm) x 2Wound dressing pad (10cm x 10cm) x 6Moleskin blister plaster (3 sheets)Pain killers (paracetamol and ibuprofen)

Fast delivery, item as described. Genuine Lifesystems empty first aid bag which folds out into multiple sections. Makes organising a kit very easy. i.e. Emergency section for gloves and scissors at back (i.e. CPR), Bandages in one part, medication in another, etc. Very easy to use, easy to see what is where. Previously had a Trekker (used from 1997 to 2015) and the case is still in fantastic condition and so far new case is witholding backpacks, children, weather and more. Fantastic bit of kit.

This is a useful bag that can be used for many different uses. Well made, although the central zip is rather stiff. This version is smaller/ less capacity than previous version (exactly same product). Also rather expensive for what it is.

These empty First aid bags are great in material and design, plus you get to fill it with useful items,Easily take equipment for four people, priceless for holidays.I have two of these, Holidays and car.
