What is bleed control equipment used for?
Bleed control equipment is designed to treat catastrophic bleeding immediately after a serious injury. These products support fast intervention in incidents involving stabbings, industrial accidents, road collisions, or falls, helping responders manage blood loss before Emergency Medical Services (EMS) arrive.
What is included in a bleed control kit?
Bleed control kits contain specialist items to manage severe external bleeding. These include tourniquets, haemostatic gauze, trauma dressings, Tuff cut scissors, nitrile gloves, CPR face shields, and clear step-by-step instructions. Each item supports immediate response during a life-threatening emergency.

Where should bleed control equipment be installed?
Bleed control kits and cabinets must be installed in locations where serious injuries are most likely to occur and where first responders need immediate access. This includes:
- School entrances, sports halls, and playgrounds
- Construction sites and workshop areas
- Public venues, event spaces, and city centres
- Transport hubs such as train stations and bus terminals
- Alongside defibrillators and first aid points in public buildings
Wall-mounted cabinets ensure kits remain protected, visible, and ready to use, 24/7. Clear signage and consistent placement support fast identification during high-pressure emergencies.

When should I apply a tourniquet from a bleed control kit?
Apply a tourniquet when bleeding is severe and located on a limb, and when direct pressure is not enough to control it. Position the tourniquet high above the wound, tighten it until the bleeding stops, and record the application time using the marker included in the kit.
