We have been carrying hemostatic agents for some time now but we have a few adjustments to make to our line up. Recently Z-Medica, the parent company of QuikClot, decided to release the same packaging and design features previously only available to the military to the general public. What am I talking about? The QuikClot Gauze originally came as a rolled gauze in a pillow pack. The military made a request that it be produced in a folded format for ease of packing in to a wound, with an x-ray detectable marker to ease identification of foreign materials in large wounds, and vacuum sealed to reduce bulk. Initially all attempts to obtain this for the retail market were met with the response of "this is only for official military use". I am not sure if there was some sort of contractual agreement where X number of units must be delivered before being released or what but recently we were notified by our distributor that this new form was now available to us.
This is good for you in two ways:
1. You can now get the new packaging which saves some space particularly in reducing the bulk of individual medical kits and the like.
2. We are running a clearance sale on the remaining stock of the original pillow packaging.
As well as the change in packaging to the QuikClot Gauze we were notified that the QuickClot ACS is no longer being supported and we will no longer be able to source it. In order to help anyone who particularly likes the QuikClot ACS pick up a few extras or to add hemostatics on the cheap we will also be running a clearance sale on the remaining stock of QuikClot ACS.

So, this weeks product of the weeks comes with a little sale that we hope you will take advantage of. I know its no cool test or video but it is an important piece of gear we believe in.
Thanks and we will see you next week, stay sharp,
Mike
