The thermal aluminum blanket, or survival blanket, provides body temperature retention and is a basic tool in first aid provision.
It is made from a special aluminum sheet that makes it waterproof and windproof. It provides protection from the cold, reflects body heat, and prevents hypothermia.
It can also be used as a signaling device in search situations by reflecting natural light. By reflecting to a large extent the sun's rays or a fire, it can be used as a tent or for the car, as visibility is possible through the aluminum blanket.
The dimensions when packaged and folded are very small and it is particularly lightweight, making it ideal to add to a survival kit or first aid kit, even in the pocket of trousers.
It is essential for covering an injured person while waiting for help or transportation.
