How to choose the best first aid kits in Australia

  1. 1Decide whether you want survival items as well as first aid supplies. The Aus-Aid listing names 2 survival blankets, an emergency metal whistle and a credit card size multi-purpose survival tool. The TRITFIT SPORTS listing names a flashlight, whistle, multi-function tool and emergency blanket. Both St John listings include an emergency shock blanket. The Lewis-Plast 309 title says "Survival Kits", but its listing names no whistle, blanket or survival tool.
  2. 2Check how much each listing tells you about what is inside. The St John Small Leisure and St John Workplace National listings itemise every item and quantity. The Aus-Aid, TRITFIT SPORTS and Lewis-Plast listings describe their contents by type only.
  3. 3Choose the case. The Aus-Aid and TRITFIT SPORTS kits come in hard cases. The Lewis-Plast 309 is a polyester bag with a handle. The St John Small Leisure is described as soft and water resistant, and the AEROKIT is a nylon soft case with a belt loop. The St John Workplace National is a large metal cabinet for mounting on a wall.
  4. 4Match the kit to where it will live. The TRITFIT SPORTS and Lewis-Plast 309 listings name home, car and workplace use. The St John Small Leisure description names the kitchen cupboard, garden shed or garage. The St John Workplace National is for an office, warehouse or remote locations.
  5. 5Look at the returns line before you order. The St John Workplace National was non-returnable due to hazmat safety reasons when we checked. The buy boxes of the other five showed change of mind returns.

Editor's note

Three things separate these kits. The first is how much the listing tells you: the two St John listings itemise every item and quantity, while the Aus-Aid, TRITFIT SPORTS and Lewis-Plast listings describe their contents by type. The second is survival gear: the Aus-Aid and TRITFIT SPORTS listings name whistles, multi-tools and blankets in hard cases, and the Lewis-Plast 309 names none despite its title. The third is the job: the St John Workplace National is a wall-mounted metal cabinet that was non-returnable when we checked, and the AEROKIT is a snake bite kit built around two snake bite bandages. Listings were read on 23 October 2026 and can change.
