- Three size families - junior 5 x 7, first aid kit 5 x 5.5 and standard 6 x 9 inch packs
- Case sizes for every stock point - cases of 16, 24, 48, 50 and 80, including an individually boxed option
- First aid coverage - ColdStar lists bumps, bruises, sprains, minor burns, headaches and more
- Made in the USA - manufactured in Bristol, Tennessee, BAA and TAA compliant
Main Description
Instant cold packs exist for the moments a freezer is not available: sidelines, ambulances, crash carts, school nurse offices and first aid kits. ColdStar's first aid description for this line covers bumps and bruises, sprains, fractures, minor burns, insect bites, minor bleeding, nosebleeds, headaches, toothaches, fever, backaches, dislocations and cramping, which is the everyday list of a treatment room. The junior 5 x 7 size suits smaller injuries and pediatric use, the first aid kit size is dimensioned for kit compartments, and the standard 6 x 9 covers larger areas like thighs and backs. Every option is a single use disposable pack, so there is no refreezing, no tracking and no cross patient reuse question. Cases run from 16 to 80 packs so both a single kit restock and a central supply order are covered.

Why Choose These First Aid Cold Packs?
First aid cold is a commodity until the moment it is missing, and then it is the only thing that matters. ColdStar has made these packs in Tennessee for decades, and the case ladder lets a buyer match the order to the stock point instead of overbuying for a single kit. The individually boxed case is there for kits that need a labeled retail style unit inside.
- Cold anywhere - activation needs no infrastructure - sidelines, vehicles and remote sites are covered
- No reuse questions - single use packs end any cross patient concern - clean, simple protocol
- Kit correct sizes - a dedicated first aid kit size fits kit compartments - restocks drop straight in
- Case ladder pricing - small cases for kits, bulk cases for central supply - buy the volume you actually use
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How does an instant cold pack work?
You squeeze and shake the pack to mix its inner components, and it turns cold within moments. No freezer, ice or electricity is needed, which is why these packs live in kits and vehicles.
Which size fits a first aid kit?
The first aid kit size, 5 x 5.5 inches, is dimensioned for kit compartments. It comes in cases of 24, 50 individually boxed, and 80, and there is also a 5.5 x 5 inch bulk case of 50.
What injuries are these used for?
ColdStar lists first aid treatment of bumps and bruises, sprains, fractures, minor burns, insect bites, minor bleeding, nosebleeds, headaches, toothaches, fever, backaches, dislocations, fatigue, itching and cramping.
Are the packs reusable?
No. These are single use disposable packs. ColdStar's reusable instant line and its gel pack lines cover buyers who want a pack that goes back into service.
Why is one case individually boxed?
The case of 50 first aid kit packs is individually boxed, which suits assembled first aid kits and resale style stocking where each pack needs its own labeled carton.
