What's inside: leading first aid design and layout

Designed to be portable enough to keep with you on the go, this compact first aid kit weighs just under 500 grams, yet still contains a SMART Snake Bandage and a Pocket CPR Kit, as well as gloves, saline, antiseptic wipes and a resuscitation mask, shears, a first aid instruction booklet, tweezers, wound closures and lots more. Need a dedicated snake bite first aid kit? We stock that too.

The new and improved Handy Kit also includes a lightweight, compact emergency blanket that helps retain body heat in cases of shock or hypothermia.

The colour-coded labelling system lets you clearly identify the first aid contents and explains the typical use for each item, making it quicker and easier to respond in an emergency.

Easy refill and restock

The numbered labelling system tells you how many of each item you should have — alerting you to replacement requirements and making it clear when you need to refill and restock.

Quality first aid product

The bag itself is coated 600D Oxford polyester, which is durable and water resistant. It's made with strong zippers and has double-stitched handles. The outer kit can be wiped down with disinfectant liquid.

The new and improved design also features the MOLLE system for tailored attachment, new shoulder straps and redesigned zips that are sturdier than ever, with an extra layer of material on the outside that protects both the zips and the kit's contents from the elements.

In addition to the extensive selection of first aid items, the kit contains CPR instructions to support your first aid training in any on-the-go emergency.

On-the-go first aid, more customised than ever

Inside your kit you'll find a personal-space section — a meshed area with a zipper that lets you add specific items or extra first aid contents suited to your own needs. Add your own insect repellent and sunscreen, or include personal medications, blister packs or a couple of extra bandages — it's entirely up to you.

The improved kit is also bigger than ever, with an extra full mesh panel and two new deep pockets.

Ideal as a car, travel or camping first aid kit

Ideal for adventurers, day-trippers and weekend warriors, this Handy first aid kit fits neatly into handbags, sports bags, day packs, backpacks, child strollers and prams — making it a practical travel first aid kit or car kit. For a larger household option, see the family first aid kit, and to brush up on the basics, the first aid emergency handbook. Keeping fever cooling patches on hand is useful for unwell little ones, too.
