ColdStar Ice Bandage Gel Packs, Long Wrap Format Hot and Cold Therapy Packs, Insulated and Non-Insulated
The Ice Bandage Gel Pack stretches ColdStar's gel into a long 14 inch bandage format that wraps limbs instead of sitting on them. Two widths and insulated or non-insulated builds cover everything from a wrapped ankle to a full thigh or shoulder circuit.
- Wrap format - a 14 inch long gel band that circles limbs for full contact cold or heat
- Two widths - 4.5 inch for ankles, wrists and elbows, 7.5 inch for thighs, knees and shoulders
- Insulated options - choose directed therapy with an insulated back, or the plain non-insulated build
- Reusable gel - the same even temperature, leak proof ColdStar gel as the versatile line
- Made in the USA - manufactured in Bristol, Tennessee, BAA and TAA compliant
Main Description
Flat packs sit on top of a limb and treat the side they touch. A bandage format wraps, so the gel contacts the joint from several sides at once, which is what ankles, knees and elbows actually need. ColdStar forms its gel into a 14 inch band for exactly this job, in a 4.5 inch width for smaller joints and a 7.5 inch width for thighs, knees and shoulders. Each width comes non-insulated for maximum transfer through a wrap, or insulated on one side when the therapy should push inward and the outer face should stay neutral. The gel is the manufacturer's standard fill: even temperature over the pack, leak proof, and free of liquids and dyes. Cases are 12 for the 4.5 inch width and 6 for the 7.5 inch width.

Why Choose These Ice Bandage Packs?
Some anatomy cannot be iced with a rectangle. The bandage format is ColdStar's answer, and it comes from the same line and the same plant as the gel packs departments already stock, so it slots into the same freezer and the same reorder list. The insulated choice at each width means the format decision and the direction decision stay independent.
- Contact on every side - a wrap treats the whole joint circumference - no rotating a flat pack mid session
- Compression friendly - the band works under an elastic wrap - cold and compression in one step
- Width matched to the limb - narrow for ankles, wide for thighs - no bunching or bare gaps
- One line, one supplier - same gel, same cases, same reorder - the freezer stays simple
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How is an ice bandage different from a regular gel pack?
It is a long, narrow gel band, 14 inches, made to wrap around a limb. A standard gel pack is a rectangle that lies flat on one surface, so the bandage format gives contact around the joint.
Which width do I need?
The 4.5 inch width suits ankles, wrists and elbows. The 7.5 inch width suits thighs, knees and shoulders, where more coverage per wrap matters.
Insulated or non-insulated?
Choose insulated when the cold or heat should push inward and the outside should stay comfortable to hold or lean on. Choose non-insulated when the band sits inside a wrap and maximum transfer is the goal.
Can it be used warm?
Yes. Like the rest of the versatile gel family, the band heats or freezes for warm or cold therapy, following the manufacturer directions for heating.
How many come in a case?
The 4.5 inch widths come 12 to a case and the 7.5 inch widths come 6 to a case.
