A pack that opens completely flat becomes the work surface: seven labeled mesh compartments laid out in view instead of stacked on top of each other.

Sold as carry and organizational equipment. This is not a medical device; the loadout and its use are governed by the provider's training, protocols and scope of practice.

▾Who Carries It

Mountain and rope rescue teams — External rope and helmet retention, ice axe holders and gear loops inside and out let the medical pack ride with the technical gear instead of in a separate bag.

Helicopter hoist and air rescue crews — A winch and helicopter hoist ring, retro-reflective strips and a high-visibility rain cover suit a bag that moves on and off an aircraft.

Fire and technical rescue medics — A non-slip reinforced Hypalon bottom and a flat-opening layout with seven labeled mesh compartments keep the bag stable and the kit visible on scene.

Units needing a low-visibility option — Full Black (MIL2033) has the same construction, 47 L volume and 7.3 lb (3.3 kg) weight as the Red version.

The winch and helicopter hoist ring is rescue hardware on a bag, not certified life-safety equipment. Use it within your team's rigging protocols and rated-hardware standards for raising or lowering equipment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What sets the CATAPULTE apart from a standard medic backpack?

It is built to travel with technical gear. The exterior carries a rope and helmet, ice axes and clipped gear on dedicated loops, and a winch and helicopter hoist ring is integrated. Inside, the bag opens completely flat to seven labeled mesh compartments and two removable flaps, with a transparent pouch for the inventory list.

Does it come with medical supplies?

No. The CATAPULTE ships empty. Supplied with the bag are a high-visibility rain cover, two removable interior flaps and a transparent pouch for the inventory list. The interior opens flat to seven labeled mesh compartments, so the layout stays visible as you pack it.

Can the capacity change?

Yes, within limits. The bag is rated at 47 L and has variable-capacity bellows, so the body can expand when it is packed full. Plan your standard load around the 47 L rating and treat the bellows as working room for bulky items.

Is the Red version built differently from the Full Black?

No. Both colors share the same 1680D polyamide construction, Hypalon bottom, hoist ring, retro-reflective strips and interior layout, and both measure 25.6 × 10.6 × 10.6 in (65 × 27 × 27 cm) at 47 L and 7.3 lb (3.3 kg). Choose by service color.

Can the bag be hoisted by helicopter?

It has a winch and helicopter hoist ring. That ring is rescue hardware on a bag, not certified life-safety equipment, so raise or lower the pack only within your team's rigging protocols and rated-hardware standards.
