How it works as a heat pack:
- The flat sheet is immersed in warm water, which activates the 24 polymer cells. To increase activation - agitate the cells. (This process is completed once only)
- Dry the hydrated sheet in a towel, do not squeeze or the gel will ooze out
- The hydrated sheet is placed in a microwave for approx. 1-2 minutes. Please be careful when removing from the microwave as the sheets will be hot
- The heat pack is placed in the delivery bag and your customers order is placed in the bag. The sheets can be placed between food containers or at the base of the bag
Tests with bags:
We tested three of our bags and found after we heated the packs and placed them in the bags it took approximately 10 minutes to reach the maximum temperature.
This maximum temperature varied depending on the size of the bag – approx. 40 degrees Celsius – which was 20 degrees higher than starting temperature, without a heat pack.
The temperature dropped by 1 degree Celsius approx. every 5 minutes – so the internal temperature remained above 30 degrees Celsius for an hour.
Please note – condensation did occur when the bag was zipped for an hour, however, if opening and closing the bag to deliver products this would allow air circulation.
