This is the new NanoHeat Blanket from Adventure Medical Kits. It reflects 80% body heat and is water and spill proof yet has a soft hand unlike traditional space blankets. Silver on one side and green on the other. Shipping next month.

What shade of green is it exactly?
Relatedly, do they have plans to release it in other colors, say orange/red?
What do you mean it has a soft hand?
Meaning it’s more like a cotton sheet than tin foil.
Ten four. Never heard that term before. Thanks.
Is the same one being offered in Amazon.co.uk?

Considering it’s the same name, I would say yes.
I’ve been using their bivy in the field for some time. Its small form factor and low weight is extremely welcome. I still do bring the issued goretex bivy to complement it (for wet wx) and to have my heavy gear on top of. More often than not I can get away with just the bivy in temperate weather. I bring it with me everywhere now, even on TDYs where I have a regular room.
I hope they make a bivy from this newer design. (Or I’ll just purchase two and make it myself)
Looks like an excellent, and quiet, way to augment my woobie
Do you know if the NanoHeat Blanket will be available to see at the upcoming SHOT Show? I’d be interested in seeing it first hand!
If they are there, they’ll have it.
Thanks. Yep…I just looked AMK up on the floor plan for SHOT 2016. They will be there at booth 3244. I’m intrigued by it for inclusion in a Go Bag and also to combine with a Hill People Gear Mountain Serape.
