KOOLGATOR
Cooling Neck Wraps
KOOLGATOR manufactures fully customizable cooling neck wraps. Every KOOLGATOR starts with an all-white fabric that is then digitally printed in full color with any designs, logos, messages, or photographs that a company wants. How Does It Work? Soak the reusable KOOLGATOR in cool water for 15 minutes and the non-toxic, crystal polymers, sewn inside the middle chamber, absorb hundreds of times their weight in water. The KOOLGATOR fits comfortably around the neck and is secured by a plastic snap. This helps keep the worker cool all day through the process of evaporation with no refrigeration or ice required.
