Blanket Warmers Australia – Medical Warming Cabinets for Hospitals & Aged Care

Safety and Mobility supplies hospital-grade blanket warming cabinets designed to pre-warm blankets, patient gowns, and intravenous fluids for use in surgical, recovery, emergency, and aged care settings across Australia. Warmed blankets are a well-established clinical comfort intervention, helping to maintain patient normothermia, improve the patient experience, and reduce anxiety around clinical procedures.

Perioperative hypothermia, where the patient's core body temperature drops below normal during or after surgery, is a recognised patient safety risk associated with increased infection rates, delayed recovery, and prolonged hospital stay. Pre-warmed blankets and IV fluids are a simple, effective tool within a broader warming protocol. Our blanket warming cabinets maintain a consistent, controlled temperature to ensure blankets and fluids are at the correct therapeutic temperature when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What temperature do blanket warmers operate at?
Blanket warming cabinets typically operate in the range of 40°C to 70°C depending on the model and intended use, with blankets typically warmed to around 40–50°C and IV fluids warmed within the manufacturer's specified safe temperature range. Contact our team for specific temperature range details for individual models.

2. Can blanket warmers also be used for IV fluid warming?
Some models in our range are designed to warm both blankets and IV fluid bags simultaneously, while others are dedicated to one or the other. Combined units are common in theatre and recovery settings where both warmed blankets and fluids are regularly required. Contact our team to discuss the right model for your department's workflow.
