Who are neck coolers for?

  • Those with medical conditions like MS which make them sensitive to heat
  • Anyone who wants to cool down in the summer heat


How do they work?


We have two types of cooling neckbands:


Evaporative

These neck coolers work by absorbing their weight many times in water.  As this water evaporates heat is moved away from the body cooling the wearer down.

  • Made of non-toxic absorbent polymers, PVA, or Microfiber fabric
  • Reusable
  • Starts working as soon as it gets wet
  • 1-2 hours of cooling time depending on the style
  • Requires soaking for extending the cooling time
  • Intense cooling at the start with gradual dissipation
  • Less effective in highly humid conditions
