Orion Safety Products has introduced three new Emergency Safety Kits. The three-kit line was designed to let motorists select a kit that matches their driving habits and weather conditions.

Every component in the Orion Emergency Safety Kits is recommended either by AAA, the American Red Cross and/or The Department of Homeland Security, to be included in emergency kits.
Each of the new Orion Emergency Safety Kits contains a selection of emergency signaling and light source products, personal accessories, first aid products, automotive accessories and survival products.
The three new Emergency Safety Kits are packed in heavy-duty, water-resistant nylon bags with handles. Each bag has a Velcro strip sewn on the bottom to keep the bag from sliding. In addition, all kit contents are held in place by elastic straps or mesh pouches for quick access in an emergency. The three new Emergency Safety Kits are as follows:

Extreme Weather Roadside Emergency Kit
The Extreme Weather Roadside Kit is designed for drivers who may travel in remote areas subject to extreme weather conditions, hot or cold, and for drivers who simply enjoy the confidence of being prepared for the unexpected. The kit contains three (3) 20-minute emergency flares, reflective triangle, flashlight with batteries, lightstick, reflective vest, rain poncho, shop clothes, water pouches, matches, gloves, hand warmers, thermal blankets, candles, jumper cables, multi-tool and a 64-piece first aid kit. This 101 piece kit will help ensure motorists in even the most remote and harsh conditions are safe, seen, warm and hydrated while conducting repairs or waiting for assistance/rescue. The items included in this kit are the same items recommended and carried by safety professionals in extreme hot or cold environments.

Deluxe Roadside Emergency Kit
The Deluxe Roadside Kit provides the required products to make sure motorists can see and be seen in case of emergency. This kit contains three (3) 20-minute emergency flares, reflective triangle, safety vest, flashlight with batteries, lightstick, rain poncho, gloves, survival blanket, jumper cables, shop cloth, multi-tool and 64-piece first aid kit. This kit provides motorists with the emergency safety products they need to protect themselves and signal others when they have an emergency situation.

Roadside Emergency Kit
The Roadside Emergency Kit provides the essentials to protect motorists in a roadside emergency. This kit contains three (3) 20-minute emergency flares, reflective triangle, flashlight with batteries, reflective vest, gloves, rain poncho, shop cloth and 22-piece first aid kit. Because of its compact size, this kit can easily be stored in any vehicle.
