About Us

The innovative design of the first aid kits led the way in the first aid market place not only in the UK but worldwide with distributors in over 30 countries.
Difficult Intravenous Access and Venipuncture
Innovation is at the heart of all we do in R&D as we aim to continue moving forward in 2022 with further developments in our Airglove technology for difficult intravenous access (DIVA) and venipuncture with a new contemporary design which includes a USB port, x3 LED magnification lamp and multi-voltage (110 -240 volts) for the worldwide market, leading with the US (US Market Access Report). The Airglove technology is currently being further extended with the development of Airglove LEG for peripheral arterial disease, led by Dr Philip Stather, Vascular Surgery Consultant, Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital. These products currently fill a market niche to serve a need that has clearly been defined by medical professionals.
Airglove was launched in the UK in June 2018 while exhibiting with WMAHSN as part of their NHS Innovation zone at the NHS Innovation Expo in Manchester.
