AllaQuix High Performance Stop Bleeding Gauze, Chitosan Hemostatic

AllaQuix High Performance Stop Bleeding Gauze, Chitosan Hemostatic — the top-tier packing gauze for a field IFAK

A first aid kit supplements emergency care, it does not replace it. ANSI/ISEA Z308.1 sets minimum fills for workplace kits; anything beyond minor injury - and any chemical splash hazard to the eye - needs professional medical attention, and 29 CFR 1910.151 requires that medical help be genuinely available, not merely listed on a poster.

If you want AllaQuix's premium-named hemostatic agent for a personal IFAK or remote-crew pouch, the AllaQuix High Performance Stop Bleeding Gauze is a packing gauze stating chitosan on its title. This page covers the specs stated on the manufacturer's listing, how it compares to its own calcium-alginate sibling and other hemostatic gauzes in the Trauma Kits collection, and what to pair it with for a complete field kit.

Key features

• Chitosan agent named directly on the manufacturer's title
• Positioned by the manufacturer as the "High Performance" tier of its hemostatic lineup

• Same-brand pairing option for programs that want to diversify named agents

Specifications

Use cases

• Personal field IFAKs for remote work, hiking, or jobsite crews with long EMS response times.
• Jobsite bleeding-control pouches alongside gear from the Construction Site PPE hub.
• Stop the Bleed course graduates equipping the chitosan agent they trained with.
• Build-your-own IFAKs completing the packing layer next to a tourniquet like the Qirexynor Tourniquet Kit.

Compatibility: what to pair with this gauze

A hemostatic packing gauze is one layer of a full field IFAK. Pair it with a tourniquet component such as the Qirexynor Tourniquet Kit, and a compression dressing such as the RHINO RESCUE 6-Inch Israeli-Style Emergency Bandage. For a fully stocked bag that already includes a tourniquet and bandage, see the HidroPony 78 Pack IFAK Trauma Kit. For a second named agent from the same manufacturer, add the AllaQuix Lite calcium alginate pad.

What this gauze is not: it is not a substitute for plain, non-hemostatic packing gauze if your training specifies otherwise, and it is not an everyday wound-care item — minor cuts belong in the Bandages and Wound Care collection.

Cross-shop the first aid kit refills collection to keep this gauze on the same restock schedule as the rest of a kit.
