Thermal blankets: a vital shield against cold and shock
A thermal blanket , also known as a survival blanket , is designed to maintain body temperature in cases of extreme cold, prolonged exposure, or injury. Ultra-lightweight and durable, it is an essential item in any first aid or survival kit .
Why keep one always within reach?
- Reduction of heat loss through radiation, convection and conduction
- Protection against wind, humidity, rain or snow
- Reflects up to 90% of body heat
- Ultra-compact : fits in a pocket or first aid kit
Practical applications
- Emergency first aid (hypothermia, shock, accident)
- Winter bivouac or hike
- Bug Out Bag (BOB) or survival bag
- Running, trail running, marathon : rapid thermal recovery
Types of covers available
- Disposable models (single use, ultra-lightweight)
- Reinforced and reusable versions for bivouacking
- XL sizes for two-person coverage or improvised shelter
- Double-sided silver/gold for heat/cooling modulation
Our thermal blankets are selected for their insulating properties, durability, and compact size . Whether you're hiking, on a mission, or in an emergency situation, they can literally save your life .
Never leave home without it. A thermal blanket = essential safety.
How does a thermal blanket work?
A thermal blanket works by reflecting body heat through its metallized surface (often made of aluminized polyester). It reduces heat loss through radiation, convection, and evaporation, helping to maintain body temperature in cases of hypothermia, shock, or exposure to cold.
What is a thermal insulation blanket?
A thermal insulating blanket is designed to retain body heat. It is generally made from lightweight and durable aluminized plastic films, used in emergency, rescue, or survival situations in hostile environments. It can also be used to insulate against the ground, wind, or moisture.
What is the difference between a thermal blanket and an ordinary blanket?
Unlike a regular blanket (wool, fleece, etc.), a thermal blanket is ultra-thin, lightweight, and reflective . It doesn't trap heat but reflects it back towards the body . It's designed for emergencies and occasional use, whereas a standard blanket is intended for everyday comfort.
What is a heat-bonded cover?
A heat-bonded blanket is a blanket whose layers are joined together using a heat process (heat bonding), without seams. This process ensures better waterproofing, prevents air or water infiltration, and increases durability, which is particularly useful in extreme conditions.
