Description
We have packed a box according to MSB's recommendations and our experiences.
A crisis can strike unexpectedly, whether it's a natural disaster, a long-term power outage, or other types of emergencies. Being well-prepared can make a big difference for you and your family. Having an emergency kit ready ensures that you have access to the most necessary supplies during the first few days of a crisis, when relief efforts may be limited or unavailable.
This emergency kit is designed to cover basic needs such as food, water, heat & information. It is important to go through the kit regularly and update the contents as needed, for example by replacing expired items. Also make sure everyone in the household knows where the kit is and how to use it.
We have packed everything you need in a practical and stylish plastic box (the gas stove comes in its own bag). Easy to put away and convenient to have everything in one place. Further down you will find MSB's checklist of what you should have at home, where you can see what you can check off when you have bought this box and what you need to supplement with or may already have.
You also receive a checklist so you can supplement your emergency kit according to your needs.
The box contains:
- 4 emergency blankets to keep warm or insulate refrigerated and frozen goods
- 8 Nut cookies 570 Kcal per cookie, fills you up well
- 2 Storm lighters
- 4 5 liter collapsible water jugs to save or fetch water in

- 2 gas bottles for the kitchen (225 grams each)
- 1 Headlamp, so you can work with both hands
- The family's crisis folder, all important information collected in one place, templates, checklists, etc. All documents and digital templates are included and a folder to put everything in.
- Checklist for home preparedness, check off what you have and make a plan for what you need to supplement
