The THERMARMOUR XTREME Hypothermia Bag features the same insulation properties with some upgraded features. Designed for emergency/rescue situations, the Xtreme fabric protects against the wind, rain, and cold weather. The new orange colour was developed with feedback from search and rescue teams who require more visibility in their emergency kits.
It has the strength to be lifted to move casualties in a hostile environment and is manufactured using THERMARMOUR XTREME fabric. The outer fabric repels and sheds water to expedite the drying process whilst maintaining insulative properties even when wet. Tested in the Arctic regions of Finland and the Antarctic continent.
The hypothermia bag is typically used by search & rescue teams, emergency teams and military teams to protect someone with an injury or in a trauma situation. The injured person lies in the bag to be safely carried away to a medical facility, whilst maintaining normothermic temperatures. This process requires no external heat source. The unique layered material warms the person up using their own body heat.
Version 2 upgrades:
- Introduced a wipeable base material for easy care
- Reduced weight making the bag easier to transport
- Improved face opening with a soft, breathable material
- Updated the access points to zips to ease opening and closing
- Replaced the velcro closing with a double-sided zip to ease opening and closing
- New highly visible orange colour – designed for emergency teams
