How It Works
The FRIO® Cooling Wallet:
The FRIO® is the most simple and convenient medication cooling system available.
FRIO® cooling wallets offer people with insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDD) the ultimate stylish accessory for the safe & convenient storage and transport of insulin.
HOW DO FRIO®s WORK?
They are so easy to use!
The principle is simple. To activate the wallet, immerse it in cold water for 5-15 minutes. Crystals contained in the panels of the wallet then expand into a gel, which remains cool for several days — relying on the process of evaporation for cooling. Just towel dry the outside and it's ready to go! To use it again, put the FRIO® back in water — it can be reactivated over and over again.
FRIO® wallets keep insulin safe for a minimum of 45 hours (more than 5 times longer than an ice pack) — even in constant environmental temperatures of 100 degrees Fahrenheit! The insulating qualities of the FRIO® also help protect against the cold of winter. Don't just take our word for it — read our customer testimonials page! Keep one at home and make FRIO® cooling packs part of your travel kit or emergency supply kit today — no more bulky, inconvenient ice packs or thermos flasks required ever again! You'll wonder what you ever did without one.
Although activated by water, a feature of the product is that after towel-drying, the FRIO® wallet is dry to the touch. The Cambrellea outer pouch wallet increases the wallet's efficiency and allows it to be carried safely in your pocket or a bag as required. Each item is re-usable and can be used either continuously or intermittently.
FRIO® is committed to providing a highly effective, yet low-cost solution to the problem of keeping insulin at a safe temperature without the need for refrigeration.
