Emergency Earthquake Supply Kits

This Emergency Preparedness Kit is Designed for City-Dwellers

— November 12, 2015 — Art & Design

This emergency supply kit is designed to help city-dwellers cope in the event of future disasters.

The 'MINIM+AID kit' is an emergency preparedness kit that helps city-dwellers reach a place of refugee during a natural disaster. While most emergency supply kits contain similar items, this kit is specially designed to help people cope with a variety of different situations. The kit contains an emergency whistle that can be used to attract attention, an LED lantern that acts as a light source and a drinking vessel for purifying water. All of these items are housed inside of a compact tube that can be worn over the shoulder.

The MINIM+AID kit provides a simple and compact alternative to other emergency supply kits.
