Total Prepare provides airport emergency supplies, food and water to airports throughout Canada. Preparing for unforeseen events is a critical aspect of airport management, as these hubs are not only essential for transportation but also play a significant role in ensuring public safety during emergencies. Airports act as crucial nodes in crisis management, enabling rapid responses to diverse challenges such as natural disasters, accidents, pandemics, technical failures, and security threats. 

Airports need to be ready for natural disasters because they often become staging grounds for emergency response teams. Airports serve as bases for search and rescue operations and are effective distribution sites for emergency supplies. Contact us for airport emergency supplies for small and large airports throughout Canada.

Weather events like snowstorms can also delay passengers and employees at airports, as happened in December 2022 in BC. During what was referred to as “Snowmageddon in Vancouver” leading up to the holiday season, a snowstorm hit Vancouver, leaving many passengers stranded at the airport.  A member of the Total Prepare staff, who lives in Vancouver, received a call requesting additional Reflective Emergency Blankets and Hand & Foot Warmers for the stranded passengers. Our staff member picked up and delivered the product to the airport’s Emergency Planning Department within three hours. 

We understand the critical importance of maintaining operational readiness in a high-traffic environment like an airport. Our emergency preparedness supplies are carefully selected to support rapid response, sustain personnel, and ensure passenger safety during both minor incidents and large-scale emergencies. Below is a curated selection of core products tailored to support your airport’s emergency preparedness and continuity plans: 

• Compact Food Rations: These long-life, temperature-resistant food bars offer up to three days’ worth of calories per pack. Compact and lightweight, they’re ideal for go-kits, stockpiles, or extended operations on the tarmac or in remote airport facilities. 

• Emergency Drinking Water Pouches: These easy-open pouches are triple purified, able to withstand extreme temperatures, and have a shelf-life of up to 10 years, making them ideal for staging in terminals, control towers, and emergency supply lockers.  

• Incident Command Vests: Color-coded and clearly labeled, these high-visibility vests provide immediate visual identification of command roles. Designed for use in ICS environments, they support streamlined communication and incident management during airfield emergencies, terminal evacuations, or drills. 

• Cots and Bedding: Our foldable cots, mixed-fibre blankets, and sleeping bags are designed for rapid deployment and comfort. Ideal for setting up rest areas for stranded passengers or shift workers during extended incidents or severe weather-related disruptions. 

• Sanitation Solutions: Mobile sanitation systems including bucket toilets, bio-waste bags, and chemical toilet solutions maintain hygiene standards during terminal lockdowns, mass care events, or infrastructure failures affecting plumbing and waste systems. 

• Hygiene Kits: Containing essentials such as soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, combs, and cleansing wipes, these kits support basic hygiene and passenger care during shelter-in-place orders, delayed flights, or mass sheltering scenarios. 

• Fire Blankets: Fast-deploy fire blankets are a critical safety tool for smothering clothing fires or small equipment-related fires on the spot—without the need for chemical suppressants. Ideal for placement in kitchens, hangars, maintenance bays, and fueling areas. 

• Fire Extinguishers: Our lightweight, non-toxic extinguishers are four times more powerful than a traditional 5-pound extinguisher, do not expire, and extinguish Class A, B, C and K Fires. Plus, it’s weatherproof – it won’t be affected by extreme temperatures, humidity, or vibration. 

• Comprehensive First Aid Kits: Created in compliance with Provincial Occupational Health and Safety regulations, containing supplies to address any injuries from minor cuts to serious emergencies, and adaptable to meet any level of risk and distance to medical facilities.   

Furthermore, Total Prepare collaborates with airport Emergency Planning Specialists to ensure that all onsite locations and mobile emergency supply bins and containers are adequately stocked and up to date.
