- Eases the pain (which can be severe)
- Stabilises skin temperature
- Helps calm the victim
- Protects covered wounds from further contamination
It may be used on all types of burns. It is water-soluble, which facilitates the removal of burnt clothing. It won't harm skin or eyes.
The mask comes packaged in heat-sealed foil packets. It requires no special training to use, and is therefore ideal for all types of industries, businesses, government facilities and the military as well as medical and emergency organisations. First aid for burns
