BSSD Defense 72-Hour Emergency Kit – Basic Supplies According to BBK Recommendations

Fully Prepared for the First 72 Hours of a Crisis

Power outages, water supply failures, severe weather events, or other emergencies can occur at any time – often without warning. In its guide “Preparing for Crises and Disasters” (edition 11/2025), the German Federal Office of Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance (BBK) recommends maintaining emergency supplies for at least 72 hours. The BSSD Defence Home Emergency Kit combines exactly the components needed during this critical period: food supplies, drinking water, first aid, hygiene, information, and lighting.

This means you and your family are not left without support in an emergency but have a well-designed basic supply kit that is ready for immediate use.

Contents of the 72-Hour Emergency Kit

🍽️ Food – TREK’N EAT Day Ration Pack

Nutritious meals including breakfast, main meals, snacks, and beverages—designed for use in extreme conditions. Gentle drying preserves flavor and essential nutrients while keeping weight and bulk to a minimum. All meals are prepared directly in the stand-up pouch with water—no cooking, no dishes, no hassle.

1 person / 72 hours — 3 × Trek’N EAT Day Ration Pack
3,000 kcal per day each, for a total of 9,000 kcal. Each day’s ration includes breakfast, two main meals, snacks, and a drink—everything you need for a full day in one package.

2 people / 72 hours — 1 × Trek’N EAT 7-Day Emergency Ration + 3 × Trek’N EAT Trekking Cookies
11,860 kcal (emergency ration) + 1,654 kcal (trekking cookies, 3 × 125 g) = total 13,514 kcal — approx. 2,250 kcal per person per day. The trekking cookies are ready to eat right away without any preparation and replenish your energy reserves while on the go or as a quick snack.

💧 Drinking Water Supply – Foldable Canister

The food-grade foldable water container ensures safe storage and transport of drinking water. It can be folded down to save space when empty and remains stable and stackable when filled. A practical dispensing tap and sturdy carrying handle allow controlled water access while travelling or inside a shelter.

Depending on the option you choose, you will receive a 10-liter collapsible canister for 1 person or a 20-liter collapsible canister for 2 people.

Important Note: Please fill the collapsible canister with tap water now and store it in a cool, dark place—in an emergency, running water will no longer be available. When treated with Micropur Classic, the water will keep for up to 6 months. We recommend replenishing your supply regularly.

🧪 Water Preservation – Micropur Classic (100 Litres)

Preserves clear drinking water for up to 6 months. Silver ions inhibit bacterial growth while maintaining the original taste and odour of the water. Chlorine-free and easy to use – ideal for supplementing your water supply.

In addition, the radio features an LED flashlight, reading light, USB power bank, and SOS alarm.

Individual Additions Recommended

This ensures that your emergency supplies cover not only basic needs but also your personal requirements in an emergency situation.
