Disposable ice packs are single-use cooling devices designed to provide temporary relief for injuries, reduce swelling, and preserve perishable goods. Typically composed of a plastic or pouch filled with a gel-like substance, they activate upon application of pressure or by breaking an inner pouch to initiate a chemical reaction that generates cold temperatures. Marketed for medical, sports, and recreational purposes, disposable ice packs offer convenient and portable cooling solutions. They find widespread use in first aid kits, sports injuries, transportation of temperature-sensitive goods, and outdoor activities. Offering ease of use and affordability, disposable ice packs serve as accessible cooling solutions for various applications.
