    First Aid Kits

    A first aid kit is a combination of medical provisions that are used in basic medical treatment, after an illness or injury. The contents of the kit may vary depending on your needs, but you will often find bandages, wipes, gloves, plasters or dressings within the kit. Items are sealed and sterile where necessary.

    First aid kits are universally recognised as being green with a white cross but come in other colours, such as red for Burns Kits. First aid kits come in different sizes and can be either portable or fixed upon a wall in the workplace or at home.

    There are different cases available for first aid kits, such as bags, pouches, carry cases and wall-mounted cases. You can learn more in our complete guide to first aid kits.
