The Type 2 First Aid Kit – Large – CSA Z1220-24 Standard Requirements is a Basic First Aid Kit sized for workplaces with 51 to 100 employees per shift working in a low-risk environment — offices, retail locations, and similar settings where injury risk is limited.
This kit is built to the updated CSA Z1220-24 standard, the edition of the national workplace first aid kit standard that Quebec and Nova Scotia have adopted. Since each province sets its own requirements, other jurisdictions may adopt this updated edition at a later date; in the meantime they continue to operate under the previous CSA Z1220-17 standard. Which kit type and size a workplace needs depends on the number of employees per shift and the level of injury risk in the work being performed.
This Large kit is the top tier of the Type 2 line, scaled for the biggest low-risk shifts — roughly double the quantities of bandages, dressings, and antiseptics found in the Medium kit. It also includes a Windlass-style tourniquet, which is a new addition under the updated CSA Z1220-24 standard — the previous Z1220-17 edition of this Type 2 Large kit did not include one — alongside a CPR mask with one-way valve, which was already part of the Z1220-17 kit.
Inside, this kit packs 340 pieces of CSA-specified first aid supplies across 22 item types: assorted fabric and plastic adhesive bandages (including junior, fingertip, and joint sizes), sterile gauze pads, trauma pads, sterile compression bandages with gauze ties, two sizes of conforming stretch gauze bandages, triangular bandages, benzalkonium chloride (BZK) antiseptic wipes, alcohol-based hand disinfectant wipes, medical examination gloves, bandage scissors, forceps, biohazard waste bags, an emergency medical blanket, a CPR mask, and a Windlass-style tourniquet. Choose the case style that suits your workplace: a soft nylon bag, a hard plastic case, or a metal case — or order a refill if you're restocking a case you already own.
