What are savENRG® Ice Packs?

savENRG® Ice Packs are manufactured using a water-based phase change material (PCM). This material solidifies as the surrounding temperature drops from -20°C to -30°C (-4°F to -22°F) releasing heat and then melts as the temperature rises from -30°C to -20°C (-22°F to -4°F) absorbing heat.

Why are savENRG® Ice Packs better than dry ice?

savENRG® Ice Packs work best in the range of -30°C to -20°C (-22°F to -4°F) while dry ice works best in the range of -80°C to -40°C (-112°F to -40°F).

When dry ice is used to keep a product frozen below -20°C (-4°F), the product temperature is brought down much colder than needed and may damage the product, while the package emits hazardous CO2 gas.

A savENRG® Ice Pack is a multi-use product that can be safely handled without special precautions, transported without emitting hazardous gases, and can safely keep a product frozen below -20°C (-4°F).

Please note: savENRG® Ice Packs must be conditioned in commercial freezer set at or below -35°C (-31°F) or colder. These packs cannot be conditioned in residential freezers.

When to use savENRG® Ice Packs:

Some pre-term nutrition products, plasma, and many vaccines need to be stored and transported frozen below -20°C (-4°F) until ready for use. These products are often shipped on dry ice overnight using a courier service and have a high likelihood of exposure to extreme ambient temperatures. Dry ice availability and transportation regulations increase the risk of delayed deliveries and may result in total loss if the product is no longer frozen when it arrives. The use of savENRG® Ice Packs can ensure products remain frozen during transit, without the risks posed by using dry ice.

Features of savENRG® Ice Packs:

• Environmentally safe non-toxic water-based product
• An energy saving, sustainable alternative to dry ice for frozen transport applications
• Tested for consistent stability over multiple uses for thousands of cycles
