Description
ColdStar Transport Ice Brick 7.5 x 10.5 x 1.5 Inch Freeze Pack for Insulated Shippers, Case of 6
The Transport Ice Brick is ColdStar's rigid format freeze pack, a 7.5 x 10.5 x 1.5 inch brick that holds its shape inside an insulated shipper instead of slumping like a soft pouch. It gives pack out benches a flat, stackable cold wall for boxes that ship temperature sensitive contents.
- Rigid brick format - holds a flat profile against payload boxes through the whole lane
- Large footprint - 7.5 x 10.5 inches covers a full wall of a mid size insulated shipper
- Case of 6 - six bricks per case for bench stock
- Made in the USA - manufactured in Bristol, Tennessee, BAA and TAA compliant
Main Description
Soft gel packs conform to whatever they touch, which is not always what a shipper needs. A rigid brick keeps a predictable shape, so staff can build the same cold wall in the same box every time and know the payload is covered. At 1.5 inches thick the brick carries a substantial cold mass for its footprint, and its flat faces stack neatly in the freezer before use. ColdStar builds the brick in the same Tennessee plant as its gel pack lines, and it carries the same made in USA, BAA and TAA compliant standing. It is sold as a case of 6 bricks, which suits a pack out bench that freezes a rotation of bricks for daily shipments.

Why Choose This Ice Brick?
Consistency is the whole game in validated shipping lanes, and a rigid brick is the easiest way to make every box identical. ColdStar makes this brick alongside its gel lines in the same plant, so it pairs predictably with the rest of the line when a lane needs both bricks and pouches.
- Identical pack outs - rigid shape means the same cold wall in every box - lane validation gets easier
- Freezer friendly - flat stacking bricks freeze in an orderly rotation - no tangled pile of pouches
- Big coverage per unit - one brick covers a full shipper wall - fewer pieces to place per box
- Same compliant source - made in the USA with BAA and TAA standing - matches institutional requirements
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How is a brick different from a gel pack?
The brick holds a rigid, flat shape, while a gel pack is flexible. Bricks suit lanes where the pack out must be identical every time, and gel packs suit payloads the refrigerant needs to wrap around.
How many bricks come in a case?
Each case contains 6 bricks. Most benches keep at least two cases in rotation so one set is always fully frozen.
Does the brick need special storage?
No. It stores at room temperature like the rest of the line and only needs freezer time before a shipment.
What size shipper does it fit?
At 7.5 x 10.5 inches it covers one wall of a typical mid size insulated shipper. Larger boxes usually take a brick on two or more walls, or bricks paired with gel packs on the remaining faces.
Is it made in the USA?
Yes. ColdStar manufactures it in Bristol, Tennessee, and the line is BAA and TAA compliant.
