• Government and municipal buildings
• Healthcare and public facilities
• Warehouses and industrial facilities
• Commercial and multi-tenant buildings

Shelf Life & Maintenance

Emergency food and water have manufacturer-designated shelf lives that vary by component and storage conditions. Check individual product packaging for expiration or replacement dates.

Inspect the kit periodically and after each use. Check radios and other equipment for proper operation, inspect packaged supplies for damage and review dated components such as food, water, first aid supplies and N95 respirators.

Replace used, damaged or expired components promptly so the kit remains ready for use.

What is a 25-Person Shelter-in-Place Emergency Kit?

The 25-Person Shelter-in-Place Emergency Kit provides emergency food, water, first aid, respiratory protection, sanitation, lighting, communication and temporary sealing supplies for a group of up to 25 people who may need to remain indoors during an emergency.

When would a shelter-in-place kit be used?

Sheltering in place may be appropriate when conditions outside a building could present a greater risk than remaining indoors. Examples can include hazardous outdoor air, certain severe weather events, infrastructure emergencies or other incidents in which authorities or an organization's emergency plan direct occupants to remain inside.

Does the kit include emergency food and water?

Yes. The kit includes 25 SOS 2400-calorie emergency food bars and 150 emergency drinking water pouches, providing one food bar and six water pouches for each of 25 people.

How much emergency food is provided per person?

The kit provides one 2400-calorie emergency food bar per person. The food is intended as an emergency ration and should be incorporated into the organization's overall emergency preparedness and shelter-in-place planning.

Does the kit include N95 masks?

Yes. The kit includes 25 N95 respirator masks, providing one mask for each person. Appropriate respiratory protection depends on the specific hazard, and occupants should follow instructions from public-safety authorities during an emergency.

What are the plastic sheeting and duct tape for?

Plastic sheeting and duct tape can be used when an emergency plan or public-safety instructions call for temporarily reducing outside-air infiltration around doors, windows or other openings. The kit includes two 10' × 25' rolls of 3-mil plastic sheeting and two 60-yard rolls of duct tape.

Does the kit include sanitation supplies?

Yes. The kit includes a 5-gallon pail, emergency toilet seat/lid, toilet paper, biohazard bags and cleansing towelettes to provide basic emergency sanitation capability.

Does the kit include emergency radios?

Yes. Two AM/FM emergency radios are included to help occupants receive broadcast information if normal communications are disrupted.

Why is the kit packed in a 65 gallon rolling container?

The large rolling container keeps supplies for up to 25 people together in one highly visible location while making the kit easier to move within a facility. It is well suited for designated shelter areas, departments and centralized emergency supply locations.

Where should the 25-Person Shelter-in-Place Kit be stored?

Store the kit in a known, readily accessible indoor location near the people or designated shelter area it is intended to support. Avoid locations that may become inaccessible during an emergency.

Can multiple 25-person kits be used for a larger facility?

Yes. Organizations can distribute multiple kits among floors, departments, buildings or designated shelter areas based on occupancy and their emergency plan. Smaller 10-person and individual Shelter-in-Place Kits can also be used to provide coverage in areas with fewer occupants.
