I purchased the blanket with my bug-out bag in mind, looking for versatile gear, though it will also work great in everyday EDC. I hope to use it as a spare tarp or thermal blanket. The fabrics used seem sturdier than a regular NRC foil, although I haven't tested that yet. I can already see, however, that it is lightweight and takes up little space.
Mil-Tec Survival Blanket - Olive
An emergency thermal blanket is a crucial component of any survival kit. Due to its versatility, it is perfect for tourist activities, outdoor pursuits, rescue missions, and use by uniformed personnel. The NRC foil is crafted to reduce body heat loss, provide insulation from cold ground, and offer protection against unfavorable weather conditions like rain or strong wind.
Durable, waterproof material with an aluminum coating, compact size
Manufactured from robust, waterproof synthetic material with an aluminum coating, the product excels in retaining warmth due to its reflective characteristics, preserving up to 90% of heat and providing effective protection against hypothermia.
In its fully expanded form, the blanket measures 215 x 132 cm. Its design supports various configuration options, such as using a rope, paracord, natural features (like trees, rocks, terrain), trekking poles, paddles, or even a bicycle. When folded, it is compact enough to fit easily into a jacket pocket or backpack compartment.

- thermal body cover

Great, thick thermal blanket that can serve as a waterproof roof cover in a shelter or a temporary tent using a cord. I truly recommend it, it works well in many situations. When folded, it’s very small and will even fit in a pocket.
-
I use it in a military first aid kit because of its green color. Solid product at a good price, I have nothing to complain about, it actually surprised me positively. It reflects light more than, for example, a tarp, but it’s a foil, so you can’t completely eliminate reflections.
-
Dark, matte green does not reflect light. In terms of weight and dimensions (when packed), it resembles the typical silver-gold one, but I have not tested its durability. It's a pity there isn't a wider version, 222 by 160 cm, in this color.
-
The foil is waterproof and protects very well against cold, wind, and harsh conditions, preventing hypothermia. It is a great choice not only for hiking/climbing trips but also for rescue purposes. The compact size makes it easy to carry.
-
A solid thermal blanket that should be part of your gear for every trip. The green color is a big advantage for those who don't want to stand out from a distance. I recommend it.
-
A great emergency solution that provides discretion – the green layer increases resistance to mechanical damage, which is a big advantage for this type of product.
-
The NRC foil used is waterproof and protects very well against cold, wind, and bad weather, preventing hypothermia. The thermal rescue tent is an ideal choice for hiking, mountaineering, and rescue applications. This versatile tent can also serve as a regular sleeping bag or a large rescue blanket. Its small size makes it very easy to transport.
-
This is my first rescue blanket in a military-camouflage color. Usually, they come in shiny, light-reflecting colors, but here, one side is Olive.
-
Solid and sturdy. Because of its small size, I carry it in my waist bag during trips or sightseeing. In an emergency, it works well for sitting on the beach or in the park. I always keep a second one in the car just in case. I recommend it.
-
It looks much better than a regular thermal blanket. Nicely packed, takes up little space. I think it will work perfectly if the need arises to use it.
-
Exceptionally light and durable blanket in dark green color. The right thickness means good durability. I recommend it – worth having just in case. Additionally, it camouflages well.
-
NRC foil/thermal blanket in a rarely seen color. Very good quality for the price. Most such foils are more expensive only because of the color. I use it in my tactical first aid kit.
-
The blanket is made of fairly thick and durable NRC foil. One of the few available in green color.
-
The blanket has an interesting color and can also be used as an emergency tent or a tarp for dirty ground.
