Vortec Ice™

Sustainable And Cost Effective.

Incorporate sustainability into your cold chain without straining your budget with Vortec Ice™ drain-safe gel packs. Vortec Ice™ is our most cost-effective, eco-friendly refrigerant gel. Choose sizes ranging from 12 to 80 ounces, ambient or frozen, to meet your packaging requirements.

By our estimates, garbage trucks transporting the weight of one pallet’s worth of gel packs to the landfill generate 56 lbs. of CO2 emissions. Drain-safe gel packs divert the gel away from landfills and offer a cost-effective way to reduce the impact on greenhouse gas emissions.

If you’re seeking recyclable gel packs that are cost-effective and sustainable, Vortec Ice™ is the best choice. Our Vortec Ice™ gel packs contain a drain-safe gel, meaning you can cut the pouch corner and safely pour the gel down the drain. You can then recycle the pouch in the same way you recycle your plastic bags.

Vortec Ice™ packs are also septic-safe, allow for multiple uses and have a eutectic point of 32 F. For the most cost-effective and sustainable option, choose Vortec Ice™.

FAQ

What Are The Benefits Of Vortec Ice™?

Features and advantages of Vortec Ice™ include:

  • Drain-safe: During disposal, users can pour the water-based gel directly down the drain without impacting PVC pipes or septic systems. They can then recycle the film with their plastic bags.
  • Puncture-resistant: The film is made from a strong, puncture-resistant #4 recyclable plastic. The durable exterior promotes longevity and decreases leakage risk to guard products against moisture.
  • Septic-safe: The specially formulated gel in Vortec Ice™ will not cause clogs or degrade septic systems. Users can safely and conveniently dispose of the gel using any wastewater removal system in your facility — whether by flushing the gel down the toilet or pouring it down a sink or floor drain.
  • Reusable: With their nontoxic gel and puncture-resistant, easy-to-clean pouch, Vortec Ice™ packs allow virtually endless reuses by end users or through a send-back program.
  • Reliable: Vortec Ice™ is backed by over 70 years of industry experience. We design and manufacture all of our gel packs to provide superior performance and temperature control you can trust.

What Is Meant by "It's Like Saving 12,000 Trees?”

We calculated the carbon footprint generated by transporting 5 pounds of discarded gel on a typical route to the landfill. We multiplied that by the number of gel packs we expect to sell at scale over the next several years.

That yearly CO2 mitigation created by avoiding sending this gel weight to landfills equals that of 12,000 live trees. Said differently, 12,000 adult trees remove the same amount of CO2 from the atmosphere that we will avoid generating from transporting gels to landfills.

How Do I Dispose of Vortec Ice™?

You can recycle the pouch and dispose of the gel by cutting a corner of the pouch and then pouring the gel down a drain — ideally with running water — or flushing it down a toilet. Rinse the plastic pouch and recycle it at a facility accepting #4 plastic films or bags.

Alternatively, you can dispose of whole gel packs by tossing them in a waste bin.
