Blast Bandage being used on burns

The trauma bandage to help you save a life in seconds amidst chaos.

The TacMed Solutions Blast Bandage is a revolutionary solution in emergency trauma care, expertly designed to address traumatic amputations, burns, and extensive wounds. With its broad 50cm x 50cm treatment area, it comes compact, folding down to a mere 10cm x 10cm for convenient storage. Its unique non-adherent wound pad, tailored for easy wrapping around limbs, offers a broad, sterile protection against shrapnel injuries or burns. In addition, a removable occlusive layer maximises the preservation of heat and moisture, which is especially vital for abdominal injuries.

The inclusion of velcro control strips ensures the bandage stays in place during application, reducing the risk of wound exposure. The Blast® Bandage exemplifies cutting-edge trauma care, ensuring injuries are effectively covered and bleeding controlled, making it an indispensable tool for medical professionals tasked with emergency trauma response.

8 Benefits of the Tactical Blast Bandage

Quick & Efficient: Designed for rapid and simple application, allowing responders to achieve effective haemostatic stump pressure, particularly after traumatic amputations.
Large Non-Adherent Wound Pad: This pad facilitates sustained bleeding control while ensuring the wound remains free from contaminants. It is versatile enough to securely wrap around limbs with its attached elastic wrap.
Generous Treatment Area: Provides a 50 x 50cm treatment area when opened up, making it ample enough to cover the entire back or chest of most casualties, yet packs conveniently to the size of a 10cm combat bandage.
Multipurpose Occlusive Dressing: This large, removable dressing serves various critical roles: covering eviscerated bowels, acting as a robust burns dressing, and functioning as an occlusive dressing for multi-penetrating chest wounds. Its dimensions enable it to cover a large area or wrap abdominal contents, minimising heat and moisture loss.
Innovative "Brakes" System: Integrated "brakes" within the bandage help prevent accidental unrolling during application. These points of adhesion significantly prevent slippage of the elastic during wrapping, ensuring a more secure and effective dressing, particularly beneficial during amputations.
State-of-the-Art Design: The Blast® Bandage, includes a non-adherent sterile wound site and offers an optimal balance of functionality and ease of use.
Sterile Protective Covering: Suitable for shrapnel wounds or burns, providing crucial protection against external contaminants.
Comprehensive Bandaging System: Equipped with hook and loop breaks for a seamless application process, coupled with a plastic loop system for added security, ensuring the bandage remains firmly in place during critical moments.
