Additional Details
This Allegro vest is ideal for wearing under a HazMat uniform, other protective clothing, a mascot uniform or even as an alternative to the standard evaporative cooling vests which must be worn outside of clothing to be effective.
Cooling products are designed to protect and provide comfort to workers who must function in environments with excessive heat. Heat stress causes slowed reaction time, reduced energy, difficulty with coordination and attention, weakness of muscles, reduced strength during heavy physical exertion and normal day to day activities. In a work environment, there is reduced safety, risk of injury, decreased efficiency and overall loss of productivity. Let's not forget personal comfort.
The avaialble inserts are safe, non-toxic Phase Change Material (PCM) Inserts. Phase Change Materials are totally safe in both packaged and unpackaged forms. They are water-based, non-corrosive, non-toxic and non-combustible, entirely harmless to touch and they can be stored in any indoor and outdoor environment.
After freezing in ice water or a refrigerator (it freezes at 58 degrees so a refrigerator will freeze the chemical pack) for approximately twenty-five (25) minutes, they deliver a constant temperature of 58F/14C for 2-3 hours.
