Back of package reads:
The EMERGENCY BAG is a by-product of superinsulating materials developed
for NASA space programs. The EMERGENCY BAG will reflect and retain
over 90% of radiated body heat, providing warmth and comfort for the wearer.
The EMERGENCY BAG will remain flexible at temperatures to 40 below
zero, making it an ideal safety accessory for all outdoor enthusiasts.
The EMERGENCY BAG will act as a windbreaker to protect against the biting
winds and to help deter the damaging effects of hypothermia.
The EMERGENCY BAG can be used in a critical situation by itself to provide
protection, or inside or over your sleeping bag to afford additional thermal
body containment.
