Who is the Buddy Kit for?
The Buddy Kit is designed for two people, including couples and housemates wanting practical supplies together in one portable backpack. Keep it accessible at home and ready to take if you need to evacuate. Add personal essentials for each family member.
Is this everything I need for 72 hours?
Your kit is a starting point for a household emergency setup. Add enough food and stored drinking water for your household, along with medications, documents, clothing, and baby or pet supplies where needed. Your requirements will depend on your location, household and the emergency.
Can I choose the backpack colour?
Choose Red, Black, Desert Sand or Khaki Green at the top of this page. All backpack colours include the same Buddy Kit contents.
Do you ship from Australia?
Yes. All orders are shipped from our Gold Coast headquarters. In-stock orders are generally dispatched within 1–2 business days. Australian orders of $250 or more qualify for free shipping. Pre-order and mixed orders follow the latest applicable dispatch timeframe. See our shipping policy for details and delivery estimates.
What if I need to return something?
You can request a return within 30 days of receiving your item, subject to eligibility and exclusions. Change-of-mind items must be unused, with original packaging, and return postage is your responsibility. See the returns policy for all conditions.
How do I keep my kit ready?
Store it somewhere accessible and show your household where it lives. Check supplies regularly, replace expired or used items, charge rechargeable equipment and keep your household plan current. You can start with our free emergency plan.
