Hydropac’s new ice packs address this challenge by offering enhanced insulation, extended cooling duration, and superior leak resistance.
Breaking away from traditional designs
Conventional ice packs are typically manufactured as tubes filled with liquid coolant. These designs can suffer from uneven cooling, with certain areas becoming excessively cold while others remain warmer.
Additionally, traditional ice packs are prone to leaks and condensation, which can damage packaging and compromise product integrity.
