Krazy Kool Technology™ System - Prevention

Ice bags in towels is neither very effective nor practical as an extreme heat cooling method. It is often used as a last resort, emergency situation to lower temperatures quickly, providing there is access to ice cubes and a refrigerator. Temperature, consistency and duration, all determine the effectiveness of cooling.

• Too Cold
• Not Cold Enough
• Can’t Stay Cold Long
• Constant Cold
• Heavy Maintenance

Wet cooling towels are all made from PVA fabric or polyacrylate-based fibers. They provide some limited area cooling for about 10 minutes, under the right conditions. Wet cooling towels lose their effectiveness:

1) when the air is very hot and dry, as they need constant re-wetting; and
2) in an extremely hot, very humid environment, the wet towels cannot evaporate.

Most cooling vests are designed to cool the chest area only by insulating the individual with cold ice packs. The inherent challenge in the design is that it only targets the cardiovascular region and does not target the core body zones that are responsible for cooling. Core Body Zones include the carotid arteries and veins to the central nervous system and the brain; the axillary area under the arms; and inguinal or femoral arteries in the groin area. Another challenge with the cooling vest design is in the technology of the ice packs as they are usually sheets of small ice cubes that melt rapidly, limiting the amount of cold therapy. Also, cooling vests are not versatile and limited in application. User size and needs vary and require varying applications such as: preventative; performance and recovery; as well as protection against heat stress.

Krazy Kool Technology™ System is designed to provide portable, versatile cold therapy in any environment without the constant maintenance or refreezing.

There are many ice packs on the market. Most freezer ice packs contain a water based gel in a plastic bag or hard plastic container. Unlike traditional ice packs that melt in minutes, the Krazy Kool Technology™ Cold Cores are a proprietary engineered design that contains a super cold refrigerant core, phase change material and a cooling thermal gel, all sealed in a protective durable heat reflective outer layer. It is engineered to cool the air around it at a controlled consistent rate, to deliver long lasting cold therapy, without the constant need for refreezing.

We cannot guarantee the actual thaw time, as actual conditions vary. Where low quality ice packs fully melt within minutes and phase change ice packs last for 1-2 hours or so. The thaw rating for Krazy Kool Technology™ Cold Cores, with continuous unprotected exposure is 4-5 hours to reach 32°F/0°C, at room temperature.

The revolutionary Cold Cores were designed with its own custom, cold retention pouch to extend available stored cold therapy for an added 6-8 hours prior to full exposure at 74°F/23°C, consequently giving the user all day cold therapy. 

Even slight increases in core temperature can result in slower reaction times, impair decision-making, and reduce muscle function. Professional athletes rely on a variety of cold therapy strategies to manage body temperature in extreme heat conditions: 

1. Preventative Cooling when you are slightly overworked, mild overheating or heat want to delay overheating, cool the body slightly. Target Zones: Carotid (neck);
2. Pre-Activity or Exposure Cooling Routine to lower core body temperatures before activity or entering hot or extreme conditions, can delay overheating and reduce body cooling load. Target Zones: Carotid (neck), Chest, and Axillary (armpits);
3. Periodic Activity or Exposure Cooling Routine during activity, game or practice breaks. Target Zones: Carotid (neck), Chest and Axillary (armpits);
4. Post Activity or Exposure Recovery Routine core body zone and muscle

Target Zones: Carotid (neck), Chest, Axillary (armpits) and Inguinal (groin), then overused muscles. 

Krazy Kool Technology™ System can be taken anywhere. To maximize cold therapy time try to keep the system in a cool shaded area.  Leave it in your trunk during the day or take it with you when you are going shopping, walking, picnics in the park, to the beach, going to work or taking the kids to school. If you work or spend significant time outdoors, in hot humid conditions or extreme heat, implementing cooling routines with the Krazy Kool Technology™ System is critical in staying safe (Preventative, Pre-Activity, Scheduled Breaks and Post-Activity Cooling). 

Athletes can integrate the Krazy Kool Technology™ System into their cooling routines:

• Football.
• Soccer
• Tennis
• Track & Field
• Cycling
• Pilates, yoga or fitness classes
• Indoor gyms or courts with poor or no air conditioning
• Work or places with poor or no air conditioning
