emergency blanket

An emergency blanket, also known as a space blanket, is a lightweight, thin sheet made from a reflective material like mylar. Its primary purpose is to insulate and retain body heat in situations like survival scenarios or emergencies. When wrapped around a person, it reflects their body heat back to them, helping prevent hypothermia. Despite its simple appearance, it is highly effective in cold conditions and is commonly included in first aid kits and outdoor gear due to its compact size and durability.
