Pocket Protector & Defender Series

An IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit) is a compact, personal medical kit designed to treat life-threatening injuries– Like severe bleeding and shock until professional medical help arrives.

Pocket Protector Series

Minimal. Compact. Everyday-Focused.

The Pocket Protector series is designed to deliver essential components in the smallest possible footprint. These kits are optimized for discreet carry and situations where space is limited but capability still matters.

Both Pocket Protector variants include:

• Chest seals

• Nitrile gloves

• Wound packing gauze OR Quick Clot gauze (variant dependent)

• Next-Generation instruction / pull-tab label with QR video access
  

Pocket Protector – Standard

Includes standard (non-hemostatic) wound packing gauze.

Pocket Protector – Quick Clot

Includes QuikClot® hemostatic wound packing gauze for enhanced bleeding control.

Defender Series

Defender kits include everything in the Pocket Protector, plus:

• NAR® Emergency Blanket — helps mitigate hypothermia and shock

• Gecko Tape® — rapid securing and fixation of dressings

• Wound Packing Gauze OR Quick Clot gauze (variant dependent)

• Pressure Pack, consisting of:

• Slishman Pressure Wrap

• 4×4 hemostatic gauze

• Snakeskin carrier
  
  This expanded loadout enables:

• Sustained pressure for severe hemorrhage

• Improved environmental protection and shock management

• Greater versatility in prolonged or complex care situations
  

Defender – Standard

Includes standard wound packing gauze.

Defender – Quick Clot

Includes QuikClot® hemostatic wound packing gauze.

Expanded Capability. Same Compact Mindset.

The Defender series builds on the Pocket Protector foundation by adding components that increase the user's ability to manage more complex trauma scenarios.

These additions transform the Defender into a more comprehensive system without sacrificing the compact design philosophy.

What’s New in the Next-Generation IFAKs

Integrated Instruction & Pull-Tab System

Across both the Pocket Protector and Defender series, our updated external labeling serves multiple critical functions:

• Acts as a rapid pull-tab to shear the kit open

• Displays written treatment guidance directly on the kit

• Features a QR code linking to our IFAK instructional video
  

This system was developed to address common failure points we observed with traditional IFAKs—difficulty opening kits with bloody hands and uncertainty about component use. The information you need is physically attached to the kit, not buried in packaging or left to memory.

Improved Access Under Stress

Based on user feedback, we redesigned how the kits open and deploy to make them:

• Faster to access with compromised dexterity

• Easier to identify and remove components

• More intuitive for trained and untrained users alike
  

Designed to Be Carried. Built to Be Used.

Our original Pocket Protector IFAKs set out to solve a simple problem:
carryability matters.

But real-world feedback showed us something else just as important—access and instruction matter just as much.

The Next-Generation IFAK series builds on that foundation with improved deployment, clearer guidance, and expanded capability across four distinct configurations. Every kit is designed to be compact, fast to open under stress, and easier to use correctly when seconds matter.

The Next-Generation IFAK series was developed with a singular focus: making lifesaving care more accessible when it’s actually needed.

From improved opening mechanics to integrated instruction and expanded capability in the Defender series, every change reflects real-world feedback and lessons discussed in our Next-Generation IFAK video.
