Waterproof material, double-sided design

The tarp is made of durable, waterproof plastic, which effectively protects against moisture and cold penetration. The double-sided metallized coating used, in silver and orange colors, reflects up to 90% of the heat generated by the body. The silver side retains heat radiation, protecting against hypothermia, while the gold side performs a signaling function, making it easier to find the injured person. The material’s high resistance to abrasion and tearing allows it to be used repeatedly in various field conditions. The surface is easy to clean and does not absorb water, further increasing its durability.

Compact size and low weight

When unfolded, the tarp reaches 206 x 130 cm, so it can fully cover an adult or serve as an insulating mat under a sleeping bag. When folded, it becomes extremely compact and takes up minimal space in a backpack or jacket pocket. The low weight of 70 grams ensures that it does not add extra load during long hikes. The tarp can be unfolded in various ways, such as using rope, trekking poles, paddles or nearby trees and rocks to create a makeshift tarp or wind shelter. The properties of the material mean that even after repeated folding and unfolding, it retains its original shape and flexibility.

Set elements

The set includes a transport bag with a drawstring, which protects the sheet from dirt and damage during transport. In addition, the set includes an emergency whistle, which is a practical accessory in emergency situations, allowing you to quickly call for help in the field. The entire set is lightweight and easy to pack, so it fits easily in a backpack, car, or first aid kit.
