Cryolux Reusable Dry Ice Packs, also referred to as 4-ply dry ice packs, are engineered to remain clean, dry, and flexible even when frozen — a significant advantage over traditional gel ice packs. Unlike standard gel packs that contain up to 90% water, Cryolux dry ice packs begin as lightweight, flat sheets composed of four layers of durable plastic and textile materials. These layers surround a high-performance absorbent phase-change polymer which activates rapidly when soaked in water, forming a uniform and flexible gel structure that maintains its shape even at freezing temperatures.
During our market research, Cryolux extensively evaluated several leading dry ice packs and identified major performance issues. Many competing products took excessively long to hydrate, often failing to activate completely even after prolonged soaking. Others leaked or released a slimy residue as they thawed, compromising the quality and safety of the items stored alongside them. These shortcomings highlighted the need for a more reliable and efficient cold-chain solution.
Driven by this need, Cryolux developed an advanced 4-ply reusable dry ice pack designed to activate quickly, freeze efficiently, and maintain integrity throughout the thawing process. Our proprietary formulation ensures rapid absorption, superior cold retention, and exceptional durability. With plastic coatings on both sides, these ice packs are fully reusable, long-lasting, and manufactured for repeated high-performance use.
Today, Cryolux dry ice packs are trusted by leading supermarket chains, online grocery services, pharmaceutical distributors, frozen-food suppliers, and seafood exporters. Their food-grade laminate makes them safe for direct contact with perishables, ensuring compliance and peace of mind across food and pharmaceutical applications.
In addition to cold-chain use, Cryolux dry ice packs serve as versatile hot or cold packs. When frozen in a domestic freezer, they can reach temperatures as low as –21°C, enabling them to remain frozen up to seven times longer than standard gel ice packs. They can also be microwaved or steamed for use as heat packs, ideal for transporting warm food or for therapeutic heat applications.
Cryolux dry ice packs are lightweight, compact, and highly economical to store and transport. For instance, shipping 1,000 traditional 1-kilogram gel ice packs is costly and logistically demanding, while an equivalent number of Cryolux dry ice packs weighs under 40 kilograms. This makes them an outstanding cold-chain solution for businesses seeking efficiency, reliability, and on-demand activation without unnecessary storage or freight costs.
Cryolux introduces a revolutionary alternative to traditional gel packs: the reusable dry ice pack. Unlike standard 90% water-based packs, Cryolux's innovative design offers several key advantages:
Cryolux dry ice packs are the preferred choice for a wide range of industries, including:

Soak & Freeze - Cryolux manufactures a range of dry ice packs that are both reusable and disposable. These ice packs are designed to save freight and storage costs. In essence, these are an activate on-demand and DIY ice pack. As a result, a company’s space allocation for 1000 ready to use ice packs which is usually a pallet space reduces to about 1/10th and just a few small cartons. Thereby, these are suitable even for businesses that are trying to work with smaller spaces without forklift access. Apart from these cost savings, there is also a large saving on inward freight costs. To activate these ice packs they are simply soaked in water. For commercial applications, these ice packs are just soaked in large tubs and can be ready to freeze in 5 to 7 minutes. The water enters the ice pack through the porous membrane and reacts with the post treated phase change polymer to form a gel that has a far lesser freezing point and can stay frozen much longer compared to other ice packs in the market. The primary difference between the reusable ice pack and the less expensive disposable ice pack is that the reusable dry ice packs have perforated plastic and layers of nonwoven textile on the inside whereas the disposable dry ice packs are constructed with plastic on one side and nonwoven textile on the other side. The dry ice packs are generally designed with multiple 5cm x 5cm cells and have several cells on a sheet. The 1 kilo sheet usually has 24 cells whilst it can be cut to size to suit your requirement and can be flexible even when frozen.
Reusable dry ice pack also known as a 4ply dry ice pack, got its name from being a dry and flexible ice pack even when they are frozen unlike any other gel pack and these can be cut to any size based on the requirement. A standard ice pack would normally have 90% water and are ready to use. These dry ice packs are designed to look like a flat sheet of paper, which has 4 layers of plastic and textile material sandwiching the absorbent phase change polymer which gets activated when soaked in water to form a gel pack. The cell structure allows them to be flexible even when they are frozen. We at Cryolux studied some of the leading dry ice packs available in the market and our findings surprisingly were very disappointing. We found that most of them take too long to soak up water to form a gel pack. Most of them even failed to activate underwater thus remaining in their original flat form despite hours of soaking. The ones that were activated and frozen started to leak and ooze a slimy liquid as they started to thaw which made all the contents stored with the ice packs feel slimy as well.Hence Cryolux aimed to make a dry ice pack that can activate easily, stay frozen for longer and wouldn’t leak as it started to thaw. Finally, after months of research, Cryolux was able to bond a 4Ply reusable dry ice pack that activates quickly and fuller as soon as it's soaked in water and also our secret formulation allowed for the ice pack to stay frozen almost twice as long. With plastic on both sides, these dry ice packs are reusable and can be used over and over again. Cryolux dry ice packs have now become the product of choice for several leading supermarket chains, online groceries, pharmaceutical companies, frozen food delivery companies, and seafood exporters to name a few. These dry ice packs have a food grade laminate allowing them to be safe when in direct contact with food. These dry ice packs work as a hot pack as well as a cold pack. When frozen in a domestic freezer these ice packs can freeze to -21°C hence making them stay frozen for up to 7 times longer than any standard ice pack. These dry ice packs can be microwaved or steamed to be used as a hot pack to transport food and keep it warm. It can also be used in heat therapy for muscle repair. The Cryolux dry ice packs are designed to be light and easy to store and cost effective to transport. Whilst transporting a thousand 1 kilogram ice packs can be very expensive, an equivalent in dry ice packs would weigh less than 40 kilograms thus making it a brilliant cold chain product that can be stored and transported cost-effectively and activated on demand.
