"Espace Vert" First Aid Kit for 2 to 4 People

Working in green spaces exposes people to a wide variety of injuries on a daily basis: cuts from handling tools, splinters, blows, minor burns, insect bites, or dust and debris getting into the eyes.

The Landscaping First Aid Kit for 2 to 4 people combines the essential first-aid supplies needed in the field into a compact package. It is designed specifically for landscapers, gardeners, maintenance workers, road maintenance crews, and small teams working outdoors.

Two types of cases are available: a fluorescent green polyurethane (PU) case and a waterproof fabric case. Their first-aid contents are identical; the choice therefore comes down primarily to the size and organization of the storage.

Two Containers, Same Contents

The polyurethane version prioritizes visibility with its fluorescent green color and retro-reflective cross. It features a handle, a belt clip, and several storage pockets.

The waterproof fabric version is slightly more compact. Its interior is organized into 6 compartments with elastic straps, which help separate and secure the various supplies. Two straps also allow it to be attached to a belt.

A kit designed for the risks of working outdoors

The kit includes several types of bandages, sterile gauze pads, and a pressure bandage for wounds and bleeding. A set of sterile hemostatic wicks rounds out the supplies available when bleeding requires specialized treatment.

Risks specific to outdoor activities are also addressed with soothing compresses for insect bites, individual doses of cream for minor burns and chapped skin, as well as saline solution with an eye cup for eye irrigation.

Cuts, splinters, and bleeding: the essentials at your fingertips

Handling pruning shears, cutting tools, power tools, or plants can cause cuts and splinters. This kit includes bandages in various sizes, sterile gauze pads, a splinter remover, and skin-cleaning supplies.

A pressure bandage and hemostatic wicks round out this kit for situations where bleeding is more severe than a small, superficial wound.

Insect bites, minor bumps, and burns

Working in vegetation also increases exposure to insects and irritating plants. Soothing compresses provide a dedicated treatment for insect bites, while calendula compresses are designed for minor bumps.

Two packets of healing cream round out the kit for minor burns and chapped skin that may occur during work or when using certain equipment.

Be prepared to rinse your eyes in case of splashes

Pruning, brush clearing, leaf blowing, or other work performed in vegetation can cause dust or small debris to be propelled into the eyes. The inclusion of sterile saline solution packets and an eye shield ensures that rinsing supplies are immediately available.

A kit designed for small, mobile teams

Measuring approximately 20 cm and weighing less than 400 g, both versions are easy to carry along with the team’s equipment. Belt clips also allow the kit to be kept directly with the user when the worksite is far from a vehicle or a facility.

As with all first-aid equipment, the contents must be checked regularly to replace any items that have been used, are damaged, or have expired.
