Your First Line of Defence in a Severe Bleed Emergency
When seconds matter, preparation saves lives. The Critical Injury Pack in a Stockholm Bag is designed for high-risk environments where catastrophic bleeding can occur. Whether in the workplace, construction sites, public spaces, or in response to mass casualty incidents, this pack offers everything needed to take control of severe bleeding before emergency services arrive.
With Martyn’s Law gaining traction across the UK, bleed control kits are now becoming a safety necessity; not just a precaution. This pack meets those demands, helping you stay compliant while protecting lives.
Why Every Organisation Needs a Critical Injury Pack
Standard first aid kits don’t cut it when a person is suffering from life-threatening blood loss. There’s nothing in a standard first aid kit; small, medium, or large; that can stop a catastrophic bleed.
The Critical Injury Pack fills that gap. It’s packed with the essential tools required to manage traumatic injuries until professional help arrives. From workplaces dealing with dangerous machinery to schools, shopping centres, and even events, this pack offers a rapid response solution that saves lives.

Designed for Real Emergencies
This isn’t just a box of supplies, it’s a ready-to-deploy emergency solution.
UK Ambulance Services aim to reach patients within 8 minutes. But in the event of catastrophic bleeding, 8 minutes is too long. Every second counts. Blood loss can become fatal in under 5 minutes. That’s where this pack makes all the difference.
It’s also ideal for:
- Distribution to individual employees in high-risk workplaces
- Mass casualty incident response (drop-and-throw deployment)
- Rapid self-treatment or aid by bystanders during lockdowns or restricted access zones
If your site is under threat or has been flagged in your risk assessment, this is your front-line life-saving solution.

The HSE and Catastrophic Bleeds: What You Need to Know
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) now recommends employers include haemostatic dressings and tourniquets in their first aid kits where there is a risk of severe bleeding. However, many first aid kits haven’t been updated to reflect this.
This pack gives you everything needed to go above minimum compliance and be truly prepared.
One pack per employee is the recommendation for high-risk roles. These can be mounted, carried, or distributed based on your site’s layout and emergency action plans.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the Stockholm Bag made from?
It’s constructed from premium weather-resistant materials, ensuring the contents remain secure and accessible even in harsh outdoor conditions.
Can this pack be used in public spaces?
Absolutely. It’s designed for quick deployment in areas with large footfall or in sites preparing for compliance with Martyn’s Law.
Do I need training to use the kit?
While many components are intuitive, the HSE recommends basic training for anyone using haemostatic dressings and tourniquets. We suggest pairing this pack with on-site first aid training sessions.
Is this kit compliant with UK health and safety standards?
Yes. It meets the BS 8599-1:2019 standard and aligns with updated HSE guidance for workplaces.
What’s the difference between this and a standard first aid kit?
Standard kits handle cuts, bruises, and minor injuries. This pack is designed specifically for life-threatening bleeding, which cannot be managed by traditional kits.
Is the pack refillable?
Yes. All components can be restocked individually, helping you maintain your kit’s readiness over time.
Can this be used for mass casualty events?
Yes. Its compact design and easy-access format make it ideal for drop-and-go use by first responders or bystanders during large-scale emergencies.
The Critical Injury Pack in Stockholm Bag is more than just a compliance tool, it’s a proactive investment in human life. Whether you’re equipping your workplace, preparing for Martyn’s Law, or protecting a public space, this kit gives you the ability to respond when it matters most.
Lives are saved by seconds. Make sure you’re ready.
