What’s In The Package?

Medical First Aid KitsAs in what’s in my package when I order first aid kits or supplies. Sounds like a question with an obvious answer especially if you do this all day every day. This post is for our valued customers and you might just ask, what’s in the package?

The first thing you can expect when you place your order at First Aid Supplies Online is that you get the first aid kit or supplies you ordered. That goes without saying. Getting the order right is only the first step. Once the order is pulled it then has to be placed in a box of the appropriate size and packed carefully so that everything you ordered arrives in great shape. This is no small task.

At First Aid Supplies Online we have been fulfilling our customers’ online orders for 14 years and shipping them out via numerous freight carriers. In those 14 years we have learned how important the package becomes when it is handled by many different hands in as many different places and conditions.

Some of our products, like the bandages and tablets are all light weight and fairly easy to package for long distance travel. There are many other that are heavy, bulky or have strange shapes. It is not uncommon for our customers to order some from all three types and then we have a real shipping challenge. The good news is that we’ve done this before and when your order arrives you won’t find your Band-Aid boxes crushed by the weight of the eyewash or instant ice packs. There really is no substitute for experience. Because we know the products, the boxes, the packaging material and the various shippers we can get your order to you in excellent condition. Combine our experience with our passion to exceed your expectations and you have a winning combination that is hard to find.

So to answer the question, what’s in the package?

Simply stated, your order. Do you care that is was packed with deliberate caution by enthusiastic people that have a passion for excellence delivered to your door with pride in excellent condition? You probably never think about it but you have come to expect it. You should expect nothing less.

Where Do You Buy Your First Aid Kit Supplies?

Medical First Aid Kits“It only makes sense to purchase your medical kits and re-supply from people who call it their profession, not Target, Walgreen’s or REI.” We would add watch out for all the new online newcomers who've decided to have a go at the first aid industry.

This quote was received earlier this year from one of our customers and once again we are humbled by their insight their loyalty. Of course the observation was both accurate and astute. Not to knock the big retailers, they do things that we could never compete with. These big stores, great retailers all, have brick and mortar stores, warehouses and distribution centers all over the place. This adds up to convenience and competitive advantages a small outfit like ours couldn't even dream of competing with.

Having said that, all of the advantages they have in retailing are disadvantages in the first aid kit world. They can’t begin to bring the focus we provide for this industry, they are too busy moving Ensure® and filling prescriptions.

The big retailers are going to offer you what they have in their distribution chains, period. What goes into that distribution chain is necessarily going to be limited because they only allocate so much shelf space for any product category. In addition to this limitation, the vast majority of the items in the chain are packaged for and focused on retail merchandising of the well-known and hyper-marketed consumer brand names.

Because first aid kits and supplies are all we do our warehouse and distribution chains are filled with the finest quality first aid products available. That means we can offer our customers a much more comprehensive selection of first aid products. We skip the one size fits all mind-set that seems to dominate the retail world. We provide superior solutions to your individual first aid needs for personal, family, group or institutional applications.

We've got a great selection of emergency first aid kits for many different situations that we build ourselves based on more than 20 years of experience in the first aid industry serving a wide variety of customers. In the event we don’t have a kit that fits your needs then we can build one to your specifications. Custom kits can be simple or incredibly complex depending upon the situation.

In recent years we have seen a proliferation of new websites selling first aid kits and supplies. As newcomers, these websites fall into the same category as the big retailers. Many of these new sites have combined first aid with disaster preparedness supplies or safety equipment. We've even seed a shipping supply company jump into the fray. The reality today is that just about anyone can launch a website and go into business selling just about anything.

But beware theses newcomers, many are pretenders. A store front on the internet doesn't mean that the store owner actually has any inventory of his own. They may be working with a third party for fulfillment of their orders. Or they may have inventory and hastily threw first aid products in the mix but don’t have any real experience or expertise in first aid. You’d probably do better at Amazon.com.

First Aid Supplies Online does quality first aid kits and supplies and we've been doing it online since 1999! We've got the products, the experience and the knowledge to bring you the very best in first aid kits and supplies. So where do you buy your first aid kit supplies?
