SAFEGUARD 6" Emergency Trauma Bandage 15 x 18cm (Green)

The SAFEGUARD 6" Emergency Bandage (15 x 18cm, green) is a combat-proven trauma dressing that consolidates several pieces of haemorrhage control equipment into one easily applied unit. It suits military, police, EMS, workplace first aid, and civilian trauma kits.

Rapid haemorrhage control in one dressing

• Integral pressure applicator delivers immediate direct pressure to the wound
• Secondary sterile dressing holds the pad firmly in place and reduces infection risk
• Built-in closure bar secures the bandage with no pins, clips, tape, velcro, or knots
• Non-adherent pad eliminates pain and wound re-opening on removal
• Quick application, including one-handed self-application

Why responders choose it

• Stabilises bleeding patients faster, helping to save lives in the critical first minutes
• Replaces multiple separate items, reducing stock, training, and logistics costs
• Lowers per-patient treatment costs in pre-hospital and in-hospital settings

Where it is used

• Standard issue in major military organisations worldwide
• Carried by police, SWAT, fire, and EMS services
• Effective on bleeding from traffic and workplace accidents, home injuries, and gunshot, knife, or assault wounds

How to use a SAFEGUARD bandage

Place the sterile pad directly over the wound, wrap the elasticised bandage around the limb, pass it through the pressure applicator, reverse direction to apply firm pressure, then continue wrapping and secure with the closure bar. The design allows one-handed self-application when no responder is available.
