We are always happy to rectify any issue as quickly as possible. Please call us on 0414 816 496 or email us at sales@survival.net.au with your order number and details of the issue so that we can resolve the problem ASAP.

When you submit an order with us we will send you an order confirmation email and an invoice email. If you have not received either of these it may be for a number of reasons, some common reasons are:

• Afterpay Orders: You have closed down the Afterpay window before it redirected you back to the Survival website
• PayPal Orders: There has been a connection issue between our website and PayPal and PayPal hasn't communicated to our website that the payment was successful
• The emails have gone into your spam/junk folder

If for any reason you think your order was placed but have not received confirmation, please don't hesitate to call us on 0414 816 496 or email sales@survival.net.au so we can check and confirm the order for you.

These kits are identical. They are called separate names as they are ideal for both family and workplace use. Both are work health safety (WHS) compliant and are the most comprehensive KITs in our range.

Regulations dictate that the expiry date on the KIT’s tag must match the shortest expiry of a component within the KIT. 

Where required an expiry date is on the individual component.

‘Shelf life’ is the term or period during which a component remains suitable for the intended use. An expiry date is the termination of shelf life, after which a percentage of the component, e.g., medical devices, may no longer function as intended.
