Key Features
Cryo Fluid™ Technology – Stay Cooler, Stay Protected
-
Actively cools the skin surface temperature within a therapeutic range of 28°C to 35°C
-
Helps reduce the risk of pressure ulcers by maintaining skin health for up to 8 hours
-
Effectively combats heat, moisture, and shear – three primary causes of skin breakdown
How Cryo Fluid Works
-
Contains millions of paraffin-filled microbeads that absorb and disperse heat
-
As the microbeads melt, they draw heat away from the skin, lowering its temperature
-
Enhanced with graphite, a powerful conductor, to distribute heat evenly
-
After use, microbeads re-solidify naturally, ready to activate again
Proven Benefits
-
Reduces skin temperature by up to 1°C, significantly lowering the risk of pressure injuries
-
Delivers consistent cooling for up to 8 hours at room temperature (25°C)
-
Reduces localised perspiration, promoting drier skin and improved comfort
