In work we do alot of FAK's for field trips and we have to dump out of date stuff which is ludicrous! Please put in traumatic bleed bandages, alot of ag accidents involve traumatic bleeding and these can be life savers. Tourniquets have come back in fashion again too. A good first aid course is also worth investing in.Got mine from amazone,usually 6 person kits.dunno why as it’s only me here.one in my truck,one on telehandler,another in workshop and one in my home which is on site.huge variety and worth a look.did not realise they have sell by dates,or should say use by dates.how does a plaster or bandage go out of date.

We put it out for people to help themselves and this year sent loads to the Ukraine.Used the out of date stuff for training sessions, don't dump it. In fact I seem to remember that out of date stuff was collected up and send abroad for humanitarian relief efforts?
Need some new kits for machinery cabs and also bigger wall mounted boxes, have also seen wall mounted eye wash stations that look a useful thing to have about
anyone recommend a good online supplier of such things please ?
Just to make your day; my recent RT inspector gave me a non-compliance because my first aid kit didn't have a "best before " date.Need some new kits for machinery cabs and also bigger wall mounted boxes, have also seen wall mounted eye wash stations that look a useful thing to have about
