OK guys - sorry to stir things up and then go quiet. I had a bit of travel, family and the administrative stuff I needed to focus on. Now I'm getting back to this topic.
I've got a chance to bring over a pallet of product from Germany. If we can decide on box size, the color scheme, I could get some units to prototype or sell.
I want to do some photo mockups, if I get a chance tonight I'll do that and post here.
The choices I see:
Box size :: SYS-I is mini-sys I
Color :: red, green, whole box, just lid/bottom, or t-loc
symbol/text :: screen print or tough stickers

I'm looking at the pictures posted in this forum and online of first aid kits. Let's narrow this down.
Can we vote on what is most popular?
Standard grey systainer with red latch (and maybe handle).
Completely red systainer - body, latch and handle.
Red systainer with white latch and handle.
I'm thinking a decal/sticker sheet then can go with this.
What color scheme do you like best?

I can't decide. Any would be good for me.
I like the white with red T-latch and handle.
But the red with white handle and latch works too. It would be more visible that's for sure.
Are you thinking of offering two sizes, a Sys-1 and a Mini ? I could see a Mini in each of the trucks and a Sys-1 in the shop.
Will these be empty Systainers only, or fully stocked?

It's too bad Tanos doesn't make a first aid kit like the Sortimo L-Boxx 102 G4 Erste Hilfe. At €87 (about $100), it's not inexpensive, but it stands out and complies with DIN 13157.
When I was actively traveling with my Bosch equipment in the L-Boxx stacks, I had one of these first aid kits. Fortunately, I only had to use it twice for minor cuts that were easily fixed with a Band-aid.

I'm going to quote both sizes and am considering getting both and seeing how sales go.
Right now I'm thinking the units will not be stocked with supplies, just the systainer. I'll take this step by step.
I was fortunate to get one of WOW's first aid Systainers about 5 years back. it is fantastic.

OK - more info. Unfortunately the MINIs can't come in the red color. Bummer. I was hoping for a matching set. Well - we could get a custom color, but MOQ are beyond the scope I'd like to do right now.
SYS-I Options:
Completely red systainer - body, latch and handle. (easy to source)
Red systainer with white latch and handle. (a bit more costly and risk, I'll need to swap latches/handles)
standard grey systainer with red latch and handle. (trying to match Mini)
MINI-Sys I Options:
Standard grey systainer with red latch
?
Thanks for the links to standard contents, that is helpful to those full outfitting their kits.

I would go with the all red as Peter mentioned, fill with the contents WOW did in his, since he was an EMT. I would the have either a cross or the words first aid in white stickers made.

Can you order a Systainer w/o the standard latch and handle then buy the white ones?
Or is that what you were planning to do. If that's possible you won't end up with a bunch
of red latches and handles.
Maybe offer both, but order them as all one color and swap out the latches and handles once you have them.
Then you could offer both a red with white handle and latch and a white with red handle and latch.
All for the same low, low price [big grin]

Yeah, my vote is red systainer, white latch. Add me to the list to buy another.
I have the old one, the only thing I added was a couple of quick clot patches. Happily replaced a whole lot of expired bits over the last few years.

An update - trying to move fast so I can get this load of systainers in a container leaving from Germany yet this week for arrival in June. Tanos USA team was able to work with me on a special order that I'm happy to be able to offer through Systainer.Store. Thank you Tanos! I'm ordering many units, though since I haven't quantified demand hopefully I didn't under order for this first batch.
A kit from our store will be composed of:
* SYS-I, red body, with white T-LOC and white handle
* Lid foam, to keep contents in place
* A divider of some sort, see below.
* Sticker/labels to be customer applied - yet to be designed and specified, want to be sure they are good quality and strong adhesive.
* No medical supplies will be included at this time. As a community I recommend we pick the best package from Amazon and I'll happily link it to the product page.
For a divider, I'm thinking Vario2. There is Vario3, which is three rows. I've attached the image of Vario2, which comes with 6 dividers.
For those requesting a MINI SYS-I. I really love this idea too. I'll look at getting a few red latches to sell as parts in my store and to experiment with. I can possible do a full "kit" once we get the above SYS-I kit set up.
So - let me know your thoughts on internal divider. Vario2, Vario3, other?

Love the idea of the internal divider, I do have concerns over cost though. Looks like the varios tend to be pretty expensive - I'd be perfectly fine with something like the universal one. I would not pay more than $100 for a Sys-I with an insert, even if it is a more flexible insert.
