An innovative, thermally efficient textile that minimises all four forms of heat loss – conduction, convection, evaporation and radiati The Mediwrap Blanket is a cost effective, single use absorbent, heat-reflective thermal blanket. It is produced from high bulk, air-laid tissues laminated to a heat reflective material by means of a unique, non-toxic, non-latex bonding process. The material has been developed into a range of low cost products for the treatment and prevention of hypothermia that can be used in almost any situation.
