Double-sided metallized, waterproof film

The poncho is made of waterproof plastic, which effectively protects against moisture and wind. The double-sided metallized coating in silver and orange reflects up to 90% of heat, maintaining optimal body temperature. The silver side insulates against the cold, while the orange side increases the user’s visibility, which is crucial during rescue operations. High resistance to tearing and abrasion allows the poncho to be used repeatedly in various terrain conditions. The material used is also lightweight, flexible, and does not restrict movement, which increases comfort during use in the field.

Large hood, armholes

The poncho is equipped with a spacious hood and 42 cm wide armholes, which ensure freedom of movement and allow you to use your equipment without having to take off your protection. When unfolded, its dimensions are 130 x 98 cm, which allows it to fully cover an adult’s silhouette. The design has been developed to effectively protect against wind and rain, even in strong gusts. When folded, it takes up very little space – it fits in a jacket pocket, side compartment of a backpack, or car glove compartment. This means that the poncho is always ready for use, whatever the situation.

Set elements

The set includes a transport bag with a drawstring, which allows for convenient transport and protects the poncho from dirt. In addition, the set includes an emergency whistle, which is a useful piece of equipment in emergency situations, e.g., when calling for help. The set is lightweight, compact, and ready for immediate use in the field.
