TECHTRADE LLC is the sole manufacturer of Ready-Heat™ self-warming medical blankets. These single use disposable blankets were invented and designed by TECHTRADE. The warming pack, non-woven fabric, and manufacturing technologies that allow for the blankets unique performance were refined over several years. The FDA clearance and patent were granted late in 2004 and Ready-Heat™ Blankets are Class I Medical Devices.


The blankets are manufactured in the U.S.A., using a proprietary Radio Frequency welding system.


After many months of exhaustive laboratory and field testing and analysis, ALL VERSIONS of Ready-Heat™ have been approved by all branches of the United States Military and have been assigned NSN numbers. The four different versions manufactured have been assigned the following NSN numbers:

Ready-Heat 6 panel: 6532-01-525-4063
Ready-Heat 4 panel: 6532-01-525-4062
Ready-Heat 1 panel: 6532-01-538-1525
Ready-Heat II 12 panel: 6532-01-538-0759

Since the end of 2005, TECHTRADE has shipped tens of thousands of blankets to the DOD, Army, Air Force, Marines and military contractors. The contractors put Ready-Heat™ in their new Hypothermia Prevention Kits, which are now carried by U.S. ARMY combat medics. In addition, the Company ships Ready-Heat™ Blankets to several military installations outside the USA on a regular monthly basis. Some of the blankets are used in Iraq and Afghanistan to treat and transport wounded soldiers from the theater and during transport back to the U.S.
