12 cell 800 gram coolant pack.
Dimensions (L x W) 380mm x 290mm

Gel Packs stay at a lower temperature longer than ice. Contents of each cell are a non-toxic gel and safe to use with septic tank systems.
Thermogard has you covered for sustainable use and are durable enough to be reused time and time again.

For disposal you can empty gel into your garden for better water retention.
The gel when mixed with salt will turn to liquid and can be drained down your sink.
Plastic can be dropped off at a local soft plastics drop off point (not kerbside recyclable).

To freeze gel packs lay each on a flat surface in the freezer for 24hrs.
I have a few of these available and great for lining your chilly bin.
