Why SOSBOX
For the first 3 days of a crisis, you are on your own
A war, an attack on critical infrastructure or a blackout can cut power, water, mobile networks and heating all at once. Rescuers go to the most vulnerable first. The SOSBOX has everything for those first days, packed in one orange box you can find even in the dark.
Assembled in Slovakia · contents follow the recommendations of the Slovak Interior Ministry and the EU
. 30 days to return, SK/EN manual in every box.
Example of what is inside: water, food, first aid, light, warmth, power and radio. Illustrative.
- No powerNo heating, no lift, no water pumps on upper floors and no card payments.
- 13 litres a dayof water per person: 3 to drink and another 10 for cooking and hygiene
- 72 hours aloneis how long the EU advises every household to manage without help
- No signalofficial instructions still reach you through a battery or crank radio
The SOSBOX up close
Turn it like in a shop, zoom into the details, open the lid or switch off the light. Below the model are views from every side.
- Glows in the dark, shines under a torchThe lid rim is photoluminescent: it charges in daylight and glows in the dark. The reflective band around the box lights up under a torch. Try Switch off the light.
- Carry 25 kg, stack it, seal itClosed 120 × 40 mm grips on both sides, two steel-wire latches with a seal eye and a lid on hinges that cannot get lost. The feet sit in the lid recesses, and two S or M boxes fit on an L or XL. Larger kits come in two or three boxes, each at most 25 kg.
- Labels in SK/EN, pictures for childrenA contents sticker with icons on the back and the same list inside the lid for a 1:1 check. The side shows children what to do in three pictures, and a paper picture manual is always inside.
- Assembled in SlovakiaWe pack and check every box in Slovakia, in the EU. It carries the Slovak and EU flags, and the electronics inside are CE marked.
- Register it with the QR codeEvery box has an EAN, its own serial number and a QR code. Scan it and you see exactly the products in your box, without prices. We remind you to check the contents, charge batteries, test the radio and replace things before they expire.

Build my own kitWhere do you live?
In Slovakia, a crisis is lived through at home
Most of us have nowhere to go, and our flat or house is the most valuable thing we own. That is why SOSBOX covers the first days for the whole family in your own home: water, food, light, heat, medicines and news, even without power, water or signal. Evacuation backpacks (Help Bag, Prepare.cz, ReadyPack) are for one person leaving home. SOSBOX is for the whole household that stays: more water, light, heat and a radio, matched to where you live. Built on the Slovak Interior Ministry's recommendations and lessons from Ukrainian blackouts, with a guide in Slovak and English. We deliver it, store it and check it once a year.
Compare with Help Bag, Prepare.cz and others →Lessons from Ukraine: what really helped in long outages
From the Ukrainian blackouts of winter 2022/23 and the FES foundation guide “A guide from Ukraine”: people there also got through outages mostly at home. That is why SOSBOX is a box for the home, not a backpack for fleeing.
- Light in every roomStandard and Premium kits have a lamp for each room and a headlamp for everyone.
- Water for flushing tooIn blocks of flats the pumps stop: a canister, and a bathtub bag add-on for utility water.
- Safe cooking without powerEvery stove in a kit comes with a carbon monoxide detector.
- Internet and chargingPower banks and solar in the kit, backup power for the Wi-Fi router and power stations as add-ons.
- Heat and cashHeaters and the Heat set, and a reminder in the guide to keep cash in small notes.

Switch off what you already have at home, or choose a better level for any part.
Gifts for loved ones
Peace of mind makes a good gift. We deliver to the recipient with your message and, if you like, an adviser shows them everything and stores it.
Add-ons
Canteen, respirators, power station, walkie-talkies and self-defence. Add them to your kit or buy them separately.
Where to keep it
Keep the box where you can find it blind, in the dark and under stress: the pantry, cellar or wardrobe. The same orange in every size helps children and neighbours who know what to look for.

Official recommendations and sources in Slovakia
What the Slovak Interior Ministry, district offices and municipalities advise: warnings, shelters, supplies at home. All in one place with links to the originals (in Slovak).
Five areas according to the Slovak Interior Ministry, and what SOSBOX covers
The Ministry's brochure What to do in times of crisis or armed conflict (October 2025) advises preparing in five areas: water, food, heat, medicines and communication. It also reminds that help will first go to those who need it most, so every household should be able to manage the first days on its own.
- Water → Water module (drinking water, canister, filter, tablets) and a bathtub bag for flushing
- Food → Food module (no-cook meals, rations) and cooking without power in the Fire module
- Heat → foil blankets, heaters, the Heat set; in the guide: dress in layers, stay in one room, seal windows
- Medicines → Health module (first-aid kit, IFAK) and a pouch for your own medicines
- Communication → crank and solar radio, power banks, walkie-talkies; in the guide: check news only from official sources
Every district links to its district office's crisis management; darker districts also have local leaflets and municipal pages. Borders: ZBGIS, Geodesy and Cartography Institute.
Links lead to the original documents of the state and municipalities, verified on 2 Nov 2026. In a real emergency always follow the instructions of state authorities, your municipality and rescue services.
Start with one thing

Frequently asked questions
Water, sirens, emergency numbers, evacuation, power outages, weight and delivery.
How much water do I really need?
Per person per day, 3 litres to drink and another 10 for cooking and hygiene. The box has bottled water and containers to fill when an outage threatens. Finish an opened bottle within 24 hours; bathtub water is only for washing after 24 hours.
Which number should I call?
112 works across the EU and also accepts text messages. Also 155 ambulance, 150 fire brigade and 158 police. Emergency lines are not an information service; get information from the radio and official websites. A card with the numbers is in every box.
What do the sirens mean?
A rising and falling tone for 2 minutes means a general threat: go inside and follow the news. A steady tone for 6 minutes is a flood threat. A steady tone for 2 minutes without repetition ends the threat. Sirens are usually tested on the second Friday of the month at 12:00.
What should I do in a long power outage?
When power returns, recharge phones and power banks at once and fill the bathtub and canisters. Open the fridge as little as possible. Never use a grill or generator indoors. The full steps are in the Power outage guide, in the box and on this page.
What if there is no signal?
A text message often gets through when a call does not. You will hear official instructions on the radio in the box. Agree on a meeting point with your family and use walkie-talkies with your neighbours.
Is the box enough for an evacuation?
The box is a home supply for the pantry or cellar. For an evacuation, everyone packs their own rucksack, weighing at most a fifth of their body weight, and carries documents on their body. Box S also fits in a car boot.
How do I deal with fear and panic?
Panic is a normal reaction to stress. Slow breathing, a normal daily rhythm and news only from trusted sources at set times all help. People with a plan and supplies panic less.
Why are there no medicines or iodine tablets in the box?
Medicines are sold by pharmacies and iodine tablets are taken only when the authorities say so. The box has a pouch and a list of what to add. Keep a reserve of regular medicines, for example for a month after talking to your doctor.
Will my box look exactly like the pictures?
The box itself is always the same: colour, size, glowing rim and labels. We test the products inside and choose them for each box separately by availability, quality and price, so brand or look may differ from the pictures. Function, quantity and value stay the same or better, and every product is meant for the EU market and for use in emergencies.
How do you know exactly what is in my box?
Every item has an EAN or QR code and every kit its own unique code. We know exactly what we sent you and will let you know when a power bank needs charging, dates need checking or something needs servicing or replacing.
How heavy is the box?
Depending on size and kit level, from about 8 kg up to 25 kg. Larger kits come in two or three boxes so that each one weighs at most 25 kg. Each box has handles for carrying.
Is there a manual in the box?
Always. A paper picture manual in Slovak and English with steps for children, adults and seniors, plus an emergency numbers card and a family emergency plan.
Does the box really glow in the dark?
The lid rim is made of photoluminescent material that charges in light and glows in the dark. The reflective band shines when a torch hits it.
How long do the contents last?
Emergency water and food rations 5 years, freeze-dried food 10 years. Open the box once a year and check the dates; the date is on the check label. Recharge power banks at least every three months.
Do you deliver to Czechia?
Yes, within 3 working days. Choose Czechia at the top of the page to see prices in Czech crowns.
Can I return it?
Yes, an unused box within 30 days, no reason needed.
Is the box approved by the ministry?
No. The seal "Following the recommendations of the Slovak Interior Ministry and the EU" means the contents match the public recommendations of the Slovak Interior Ministry and the EU Preparedness Union Strategy. It is not an official approval or certificate.
Where is the SOSBOX put together?
In Slovakia. We pack and check every box here, which is why it carries the Slovak and EU flags. The electronics inside are CE marked.
Can I see the box before buying?
Yes. Book a free visit and an adviser brings samples and helps you choose.
