Be prepared for roadside emergencies with a vehicle first aid kit that meets the BS8599-2:2019 standard. Designed for both commercial and private vehicles, this compact kit provides the recommended supplies to respond to the most common injuries that occur on the road.
Whether you're driving a car, van, taxi, or coach, this kit helps you meet your duty of care and offers peace of mind that you have the appropriate medical items on board.

The BS8599-2:2019 standard was introduced to improve safety by ensuring vehicles are equipped with suitable first aid provisions. Steroplast’s vehicle first aid kits have been developed to align with these guidelines, helping motorists respond quickly and effectively if someone is injured in a road incident.
