Installation Guide and Compliance

Activation is done by firmly squeezing the bag to break the internal water bubble, then shaking gently to mix the components. This product meets Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) requirements regarding the first aid equipment required for treating musculoskeletal injuries. Including thermal compresses in first aid kits is a standardized practice to comply with safety standards in Canada.

Maintenance Protocol

As a single-use product, no maintenance is required. To maximize longevity and maintain product effectiveness before activation:

• Store bags in a cool, dry place, away from sharp objects that could puncture the casing.

• Do not activate the bag in advance; it must remain intact until the exact moment of use.

• Periodically check the integrity of the packaging to ensure no leaks are present.

Professional Environment Use Tips

Sylprotec's OHS expert recommends always wrapping the compress in a thin cloth or sleeve before application to avoid prolonged direct contact with the skin. Apply heat in cycles of 15 to 20 minutes according to current first aid protocols. For optimal operational management, be sure to immediately replace any used compress in your first aid kits to maintain your state of readiness.

The mixture is designed to be safe, but in case of accidental rupture, it is advised to rinse the skin thoroughly with water. It is important not to ingest the contents and to discard the bag if the casing is damaged.
