Maximize your cooling!  Booster packs, used in combination with Glacier Packs, will extend the duration of your cooling comfort. 

The Glacier Tek booster packs have a lower freezing point and 50% more cooling capacity than the small packs included in our standard set of adult cooling packs. The booster packs are designed to be paired with the standard large packs to extend the period of cooling comfort by 45 minutes or more. Because it replaces the standard small pack, there is no additional weight.  The booster packs feature horizontal cells that conform to your torso as you bend and stretch. The set consists of four small packs that weigh 7 ounces each. Because of their lower freezing point, they must be charged in a freezer. Standard packs may be charged in a freezer, refrigerator, or ice water. Once all the packs are solid, slide one of the standard four-cell packs into each pocket of the vest. Then slide one of the three-cell booster packs in each pocket, on the outer side of the four-cell pack. You want the four-cell packs closer to your body; they hold a comfortable temperature of around 58 degrees F. The green booster packs are much colder; they are designed to keep the inner packs cool, but not cold, for longer periods.

    Booster packs work with standard set to extend cooling by 45 minutes. 

    Booster packs fit Glacier Tek sports, concealable, original and classic cooling vests. 

    Recharges in freezer. Booster packs weigh 7 ounces each and measure 9.25" by 5.25" by 0.5." 

    Made from 100% non-toxic phase change materials. 

    Can be sanitized and reused indefinitely.


The Glacier Tek Booster Packs fit the following Glacier Tek Vests:

    Sport Vest

    Banox Vest

    Classic Vest

    Concealable Vest

    Original Vest


How to Charge Glacier Packs:

    Place the packs in your freezer for 1-2 hours


How to Use:

1.    GlacierPack sets must be charged before each use.  

2.    To load the vest, stack on Glacier Pack on top of the booster pack, then slide the stacked packs into the interior pockets.  Note the booster pack should be furthest away from body.

3.    The cooling vest is most effective when worn snugly around your torso.  Your vest can be worn over a T-shirt, your uniform or whatever you prefer.


User Warning

Do not use the booster packs by themselves in your cooling belt.  Booster packs may cause discomfort on damage skin tissue if worn close to the body for an extended period.


How to Clean Cooling Packs:

GlacierPacks can be hand-washed with warm water and dish soap. If desired, isopropyl alcohol may be used for disinfection. Rinse and towel dry before use.

How to Store Cooling Packs (for Long-Term Storage):

  • A cool, dry space such as a pantry or dry storage is the ideal area to store cooling packs for weeks/months at a time.
  • Long-term storage in a freezer can degrade the pliability of plastic over time, which makes the cooling packs more vulnerable to leaking and damage to the plastic that contains the cooling gel.
  • We recommend considering long-term storage for any non-use period greater than 3-4 weeks.

I have Multiple Sclerosis and I have been using Glacier Tek cool vests for approximately 15+ years. Its the only way I have been able to be outside during the summer months.The new packs are smaller and now you place 2 packs in each slot. I have to say I was disappointed in the length of time they stayed cool and at times its harder to sometimes put 2 packs in their slot. That being said, I tried the booster packs and have been pleasantly surprised at the length of time my vest stayed cool! It now stays as cool as their old style single sleeve ice pack but make sure the booster pack isn't close to your skin so it doesn't give you freezer burn. I personally prefer the old style over this new 2 pack system that really needs the booster pack to be as effective as their original single single pack.

Great addition

The new booster packs really do help with extending the length of time between recharges with the standard cooling packs. Keep in mind that you do need to recharge these in the freezer vs just ice water or fridge. If you have access to a freezer throughout the day - it would be an ideal setup because you will save time having to swap packs as often. I use these when working in the yard or if I know I won't need to swap packs through-out the day, but still would like to keep the cooling packs solid for a longer time.

I especially like the new design with multiple cells in a single cooling pack. This is great if you are bending over, laying down, crawling through attics, etc. etc.

The booster packs are really nice to allow you wear less standard packs and use the booster packs to keep the standard pack in "ice" form for longer. The idea is not to stay super cold, but rather to maintain a more stable temperature and not overheat. These definitely do the job for me!

These packs are too tall for the flex-vest, but fit my sport vest wonderfully!

Thank you guys for a great product and helping keep me cool!
