Main Description
Shared therapy packs raise an obvious question: what touches the patient? Covers are the answer, a clean barrier that goes over the pack for each treatment. ColdStar sizes these at 6.5 by 9.5 inches so they pair with the standard 6 x 9 packs that dominate its own line and most department freezers. Beyond hygiene, the cover takes the edge off direct contact with a fully frozen or freshly heated surface, which patients notice in the first minute of a session. Departments that run packs back to back keep covers at the treatment table rather than the supply room, which is why the case of 48 exists. Facilities standardizing across sites take the case of 288 and distribute from central supply.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Which packs do these covers fit?
They are sized 6.5 x 9.5 inches for standard 6 x 9 inch therapy packs, which includes ColdStar's standard gel packs and most department packs of that size.
Why use a cover at all?
A cover gives each patient a clean barrier over a shared pack and softens the first contact with a frozen or heated surface. It also takes the wear that would otherwise age the pack surface.
Which case size should I order?
The case of 48 suits a single department restocking its treatment tables. The case of 288 suits central supply and facilities distributing covers to several sites or departments.
Do covers change the therapy?
A thin barrier slightly softens the initial intensity, which most patients prefer. The pack's temperature still transfers through the cover during the session.
Are they made in the USA?
Yes. ColdStar manufactures them in Bristol, Tennessee, and the line is BAA and TAA compliant.
