Troubleshooting
The pack is not staying cold for the expected duration.
Ensure the insulated bag is properly sealed and that you are using enough ice blocks relative to the volume of food packed.
The surface of the block is sweating excessively.
This is normal condensation. Wrap the block in a thin paper towel or cloth to absorb moisture if it is causing dampness on your food containers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare, place the blocks in your freezer at least 8-12 hours before intended use to ensure the cooling agent is completely solidified. They are compatible with most standard soft-sided lunch bags and insulated picnic carriers. For care, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap after use if needed. Do not place the blocks in the dishwasher, and avoid extreme temperatures or sharp objects that could puncture the plastic casing. If a block becomes damaged or begins to leak, discard it immediately.
