The FRIO Cooling Wallet:
An innovative product that solves the problem of keeping diabetes insulin at a safe temperature without the need of refrigeration. This information will help you to understand how the FRIO Wallets work and why they are a must have item for every insulin dependent diabetes sufferer.
Frio Characteristics
Frio Description:
The FRIO Cooling Wallet (inner part):
This material is 65-35 Poly cotton, which has been made into an open pocket with double-walled panels containing panels of super-absorbent crystals, which are non-toxic and non-flammable.
The Cover (Outer part):
It is manufactured from a Du Pont fibre called "Cambrelle". This pouch is permeable and facilitates the evaporation process, as well as improving the stability of the temperature inside the wallet.
FRIO - How It Works:
To activate your FRIO wallet, it is simply immersed in cold water for 5-15 minutes (depending upon the size.) Crystals contained in the panels of thewallet then expand into a gel-like substance, and remains in this form for several days. Once activated, the FRIO wallet should be removed from the water and towel dried. It should then be left for a minimum of 10 minutes (longer if possible) so that all the excess moisture held in the fabric is also absorbed. Now you can place it into the cover. The FRIO wallet will now be dry to the touch and can be placed in a handbag or pocket without the adjacent items getting damp.
The evaporation process creates a cooling effect inside the FRIO wallet, and the crystals ensure that this process is long lasting. When in continuous use subsequent immersion periods MUST BE reduced to 3-4 minutes as the crystals will keep expanding and absorbing water. While activated, the wallet MUST be able to "breathe" and must not be placed in a plastic bag or air tight container.
