August 1, 2019

LITTLETON, N.H. (August 1, 2019) — Adventure® Medical Kits, the leading name in outdoor first aid, puts the power to stop bleeding in every consumer’s hands with the launch of new QuikClot® Gauze in Z-fold, available on Amazon and retailers nationwide beginning August 1, 2019. Tested and proven through years of combat use by the U.S. Military, easy-to-use QuikClot® Gauze accelerates the body’s natural clotting process, stopping bleeding five times faster using a safe, non-allergenic clay mineral, kaolin.

“QuikClot® hemostatic gauze works on contact to stop bleeding by accelerating your body’s natural clotting process, clotting blood five times faster,” says Ben Pasquino, QuikClot® brand manager. “With an all-new Z-fold configuration that is effective and easy to use, QuikClot® Gauze is a necessary addition to any trauma kit, glove box, emergency medical kit, range bag, first responder kit or purse.”

QuikClot® Gauze is impregnated with kaolin, a naturally occurring mineral proven to be effective as a hemostatic agent. Inorganic and inert, kaolin is non-allergenic, making it safe and effective to use. QuikClot® Gauze contains no botanicals and no animal or human proteins.

Proven effective in combat and recommended by Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) guidelines for use by all branches of the U.S. military, QuikClot® Gauze is flexible and pliable, easily contouring to wounds. QuikClot® Gauze allows experts and novices alike to act quickly with confidence in any emergency. Simply position the gauze over the source of the bleeding and apply pressure to stop bleeding.

Starting August 1, 2019, QuikClot® Gauze in Z-fold is available in 3” x 2’ and 3” x 4’ formats, for $15.99 and $29.99, respectively. It will be available for purchase on Amazon, Sportsman’s Warehouse and other select retailers nationwide.
