Frequently asked questions
What should a first aid kit for the household contain?▾
A well-equipped first aid kit for the household contains plasters in various sizes, sterile wound compresses, gauze bandages, elastic fixation bandages, a bandage scissors, disposable gloves, a triangular bandage, wound disinfectant and a first aid guide. Depending on the manufacturer and standard, additional contents such as burn compresses or an emergency blanket may be included.
Which first aid kit is suitable for camping and outdoor activities?▾
For camping, hiking and outdoor activities, special outdoor first aid kits are recommended that contain tick tweezers, blister plasters, an emergency blanket, a signal whistle and often a waterproof bag in addition to the basic contents. Brands like Leina and First Aid Only offer particularly robust and compact kits that take up little space in your backpack.
What is the difference between a car first aid kit and an outdoor first aid kit?▾
A car first aid kit is standardized according to legal requirements (in Switzerland according to VTS) and contains a defined minimum equipment for first aid in traffic accidents. An outdoor first aid kit, on the other hand, is more flexibly assembled and designed for typical outdoor injuries such as cuts, insect bites, blisters or hypothermia – it is usually lighter and more compact than a car first aid kit.
How often should I check and refill my first aid kit?▾
It is recommended to check the first aid kit at least once a year. You should particularly check the expiration date of sterile products such as wound compresses and plasters, replace used or expired contents and verify completeness using the enclosed contents list. After each removal, the kit should be refilled promptly so that it is ready for use in an emergency.
Which first aid kit is suitable for families with children?▾
For families with children, kits containing child-friendly plasters with colorful motifs, smaller dressing materials for children's body proportions and additional products such as cooling pads or insect bite healers are suitable. Manufacturers like Holthaus Medical and Söhngen offer special family first aid kits that are ideally equipped for on the go, during sports or when traveling.
What must a first aid kit for the workplace contain?▾
A first aid kit for the workplace in Switzerland must comply with the requirements of EKAS (Swiss Federal Coordination Commission for Occupational Safety). Depending on the size of the business and the hazard potential, it contains larger quantities of dressing material, eye wash bottles, burn dressings and often special accident report forms. Businesses should follow SUVA guidelines and have the kit serviced regularly.
Are first aid kits according to DIN standard recommended?▾
Yes, first aid kits according to DIN 13157 or DIN 13164 offer a standardized and proven basic equipment that is well suited for most private and commercial applications. The standard ensures that all essential dressing materials are included in tested quality. For special areas of use such as outdoor or travel, standardized kits can be supplemented with additional contents.
How do I store my first aid kit correctly?▾
The first aid kit should be stored in a cool, dry place protected from direct sunlight – ideally in an easily accessible cabinet or drawer known to all household members. High temperatures and humidity can damage sterile packaging and shorten the shelf life of plasters and compresses. In the car, storage in the passenger compartment rather than the trunk is recommended to avoid extreme temperature fluctuations.
