Mylar Emergency Blanket | Space Blanket | Emergency Foil Banket | 5 Pack

 What is an emergency blanket used for?

An essential part of any Survival Kit / Emergency Kit or First Aid Kit, the mylar emergency thermal blankets otherwise known as space blankets are an absolute must. Unlike a lot of other items, mylar emergency thermal blankets do not have an expiry date so will be ready to go should the need arise. 

In case of an emergency, the mylar emergency thermal blankets are used to prevent/counter hypothermia. Their compact size before unfurling and light weight makes them ideal when space is at a premium. They may be included in first aid kits and in camping equipment. Their design reduces the heat loss in a person’s body which would otherwise occur due to exposure to the elements.

They are useful to help prevent a person (or animal) from going into shock and for reducing heat loss caused by water evaporation, convection, or thermal radiation.
