Survival Emergency Solutions has been leading the in- novation of first aid products in Australia since 1988. Twin brothers Jerry and Tim Tyrrell founded Survival in response to the cot death of their 1 month old niece, Caroline. Sad- ly, Jerry was unable to resuscitate Caroline. He felt at a loss during the crisis with the realisation he didn’t know exactly what to do. Jerry responded by developing the Emergency First Aid Handbook which detailed and illustrated the essential steps in first aid. The book won an Australian Design Award and has sold over 2 million copies world wide. Following the success of Survival’s publications, Surviv- al turned it’s attention to developing the best first aid kit in Australia. Historically, first aid kits were either in box- es or bags that spilled out when you opened them. Surviv- al realised that it was nearly impossible to find the correct piece of equipment during an emergency. This delay could have been the difference between life and serious injury or death. Survival developed a number of world class first aid kits that have been built to last in the most rugged environment. Our range of kits can be used in just about any circumstance. Survival continues to provide the highest quality prod- ucts that simply make sense and are easy to use. Find out why over one million Australian’s love Survival’s products with our kits and publications now being sold all around the globe. Survival's first aid kits come in varying sizes and for differ- ing applications and many are perfect for motorcycle travel. It goes without saying that every motorcycle traveller should carry a first aid kit, there will come a time when it is needed. Survival's soft pack first aid kits are made from coated 600D Oxford polyester, which is durable and water resistant. They're made with strong zippers and have double stitched handles. The outer can be wiped down with disinfectant liq- uid. Most have sections to place your own identification de- tails plus CPR instructions. Inside the kits, each component is sectioned for ease of identification and retreaval, reducing some of the personal anxiety during what is often a very stressful situation. There's a variety of sizes, meaning there's a kit for any panier, tankbag or pack, ready for the next adventure. We'll have a full review in the next issue of TRAVERSE.
