The FRIO Cooling Wallet

An innovative product that solves the problem of storing 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 dependant diabetes sufferer.

Frio Characteristics

Activated by water - no need for ice or fridges or even electricity
Keeps insulin cool for over 45 hours for each immersion period
You can keep on using it over and over again - either continuously or intermittently, the choice is yours!

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 the wallet 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 moistureheld 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. Whilst activated, the wallet MUST be able to "breathe" and must not be placed in a plastic bag or air tight container.

Please note we DO NOT accept returns once the FRIO has been used or ACTIVATED.

  1. Great For Travelling

    Posted by Brian on 26th May 2011

    I travel a lot because of my job and because of this I'm not at home often, I spend most of my day outdoors so bringing my medication around is very important to me.
    I bought this wallet and am very pleased with it.
    It's easy to activate with water and keeps my insulin cool for almost 2 days without needing to be reactivated. I've been using it for weeks now and it still works just like when I first bought it.
    Would HIGHLY recommend.
