Since 1957, NTH has specialized in manufacturing high-quality, eco-friendly relief items, including family tents, blankets, jerry cans, water buckets designed to meet international standards.

With a diversified product range, the Medium Thermal and High Thermal blankets stand out as reliable and sustainable solutions for different weather conditions, combining warmth, durability, and user safety with an eco-conscious approach.

The Right Blanket for Every Need

Medium Thermal Blankets

  • Designed for mild to moderate climates, these blankets are lightweight and comfortable.
  • Suitable for indoor or general use, providing insulation for mild temperatures.
  • Features a double-sided dry-raising process for maximum softness and warmth, ensuring comfort for displaced individuals.

High Thermal Blankets

  • Engineered for harsh, cold climates, offering advanced thermal insulation to protect against extreme cold and hypothermia.
  • Despite their high warmth, these blankets remain portable and practical for relief operations.

Both blankets comply with UNHCR, UNICEF, ICRC and IOM standards, ensuring reliability in any humanitarian situation.

Key Features of NTH Blankets

Durable, Sustainable, and Eco-Friendly Design

  • Made from GRS-certified 100% recycled polyester fibers, derived from post-consumer waste, reducing plastic waste while delivering the same comfort and durability as virgin polyester.
  • Compliant with ISO 1833 standards, NTH blankets are built to withstand wear and tear while maintaining performance.
  • Tested for tensile strength, the blankets resist a force of 250N in both warp and weft directions (ISO 13934-1), ensuring durability in challenging conditions.
  • Minimal shrinkage and weight loss after repeated washing (less than 5%) keep the blankets in excellent condition.
  • Eco-friendly packaging eliminates single-use plastics, reducing the product’s environmental footprint.
  • NTH’s production process is water-free, conserving resources and aligning with our mission to create sustainable, high-quality products.

Thermal Resistance for Optimal Warmth

Blankets are tested for thermal resistance (TOG), ensuring they provide adequate insulation in their respective climates.

  • Medium Thermal Blankets offer warmth suitable for mild conditions.
  • High Thermal Blankets deliver enhanced insulation for freezing environments.

This makes NTH blankets effective in minimizing heat loss while ensuring breathability for comfort.

Breathability and Insulation Balance

  • Meeting ISO 9237 standards, the blankets achieve controlled airflow for breathability without sacrificing warmth.
  • With a maximum air permeability of 1000 L/m²/s under 100 Pa pressure, they balance insulation and ventilation for diverse climates. A 100 Pa pressure is roughly equivalent to the air resistance felt at a car speed of about 45-50 km/h (28-31 mph) under typical conditions.

Hygiene and Safety First

  • Blankets undergo an Organoleptic test to confirm they are:
    • Odorless
    • Skin-friendly
    • Dust-free
    • Free of harmful VOCs.
  • A pH range of 4 to 9 ensures compatibility with human skin, avoiding irritation.
  • Fire Safety Details:
    • Resistance to cigarette ignition – No ignition (ISO 12952-1&2).
    • Resistance to flame ignition – No ignition (ISO 12952-3&4).
  • These fire-resistant properties make NTH blankets safe for use in camps and shelters.
